Best beer in your state?

Virginia here...........To name a few..........
Alewerks Coffeehouse Stout
Blue Mountain Brewery Dark Hallow
Champion Brewing Stickin' In My IPA
Hardywood Park Hoplar Imperial IPA
O 'Conner Brewing El Guapo Agave IPA

 

For a regular rotation beer I would say Laurlewood Workhorse and for a draft only it would have to be Hop Venom.

 

Carton Regular Coffee!

 

In CT - Hooker's "Liberator" dopplebock. Bang-on for the style, second only to Celebrator in my opinion.

 

Permanent Funeral

 

It's a close one for me...between two...

Penrose Coffee Navette and Half Acre Vallejo. Both are so incredibly dangerous. I drank an entire growler of Coffee Navette last Thanksgiving, leaving little to no room for food.

 

I love Portland, the Timbers and Hop Venom.

(my picture is actually HV when I was in Portland)

 

Singlecut's Mo Shuggie-NY

Pizzaboy Eternal Sunshine-PA

 

I live in MN, best bear in my state has to be Divine Oculust by Harriet Brewery. Really wish you could get it in places other than the brewery!

 

Be between ''gotta get up to get down'' coffee milk stout by Wiseacre or Country roots stout by TN BREW Works.

 

Louisiana
Parish's Ghost in the Machine has been the best for awhile now but
Great Raft is gaining ground
Actually, I like Parish's Milton Teagle Jr jr, although they never bottled it.

 

Bell's Two Hearted Ale - Great flavor, very well balanced, and you can buy it anywhere for a fair price.

 

Hipster Breakfast from Southern Prohibition although I haven't tried all from my state yet.

 

Great Lakes Chillwave Double IPA. Off the top of my head one of my 5 favorite all time beers from any brewery.

 

Certainly CA has more than their share of outstanding breweries, including several of my favorites (see my avatar) but plenty of other states have breweries that can compete with (and dare I say sometimes beat) the best of CA. Michigan, Colorado, and Vermont (and Ohio as well) off the top of my head all boast some pretty damn good craft beers and I'm sure there are plenty of much more local (sometimes not distributed period) breweries all around the country. I know I haven't even scratched the surface of my own state, and yet I think several Great Lakes beers rank among the best I've had, especially in their respective styles (I've yet to try a porter that's better than Edmund Fitzgerald, Burning River is a world-class pale ale, and I'd put Chillwave IIPA up against any in the category, period). And Michigan has a simply ridiculous overabundance of outstanding craft beer considering the population.

 

Tough question. I would go with KBS, have yet to try CBS. Plead the 5th and Founders Imperial, 2A and 2B respectively.

 

So many beers that I love from MA, but no single one that I really go for more than any other. The closest two to fit that description would be Jack's Abby Framinghammer and Spencer Trappist.

 

Depending on the batch I would say Permanent Funeral. Otherwise it's a tossup between Dreadnaught and Zombie Dust for me.

 

have you seen any of this recently around here?

 

I used to live in Michigan, so I'll throw a vote in for you. How about Citra Pale Ale (or whatever it's called....) from Odd Side? That's been one of my favorites to grab every time I go back. I would also give a strong second place to Jamesport Brewing Scottish Strong Ale. Keep in mind though that I never seem to be in the state when a lot of the heavy hitter releases come out like Black Note, KRE, BBPt5, etc.,.
