5 Favorite Beers by Region

Anyone in Pennsylvania and Oregon,Cali and Michigan with of all states New Hampshire should have their own thread on this subject -It is not fair

 

Kane is awesome as is Carton but I have to give a shout out to Tired Hands -fantastic beer and good food and an awesome place

 

Midwest:
FFF Gumballhead
New Glarus Raspberry Tart/Serendipity/any special or Thumbprint release
Boulevard Smokestack Series: Long Strange Tripel
Founders KBS
Tallgrass Ethos IPA

 

We shouldn't be picking sides; unless you work for Carton...both are great. I like Kane because (or at least to my understanding) they are strictly NJ, whereas Carton distributes outside of NJ (e.g. Proletariat, Torst - awesome bars in NY). Anyways, I posted this pick the other night on "What beer are you drinking now?".....very good:

 

That is a great beer along with the The Night to end all Dreams

 

The Kriek is great

 

My Northeast Favorites are:

ST Pumking (laugh if you want)
DFH 90
Troegs Nugget Nectar
Victory Ranch R DIPA
ST Choklat

Since Ranch R was a one-off and will not likely be brewed again, I will add an honorable mention:
DFH Palo Santo
