    1. Lawson's Finest Liquids
    2. Hill Farmstead
    3. Russian River

    There's so many but if we're doing 3 that's it, if we did 10 I'd feel a bit more inclusive about it.

    Odell
    Marble
    Funkwerks

    Honestly, Cigar City would be there instead of Funkwerks if I were to ever try more than just their Jai Alai IPA and Maduro Oatmeal Brown (both are great, I am sure the rest of their stuff is too).
