Bucket list breweries

Like most lists here:

Hill Farmstead
Treehouse
Trillium
Grimm
Other Half
Russian River

Next week I get to knock off two, Westvleteren (or atlease see the Abbey in person) and Cantillon

 

There are so so so very many.

Ones i have gotten to see so far:
Russian River
Cantillon

I will be visiting Jester King in July.

 

Wicked Weed
Treehouse
Westbrook
Hoof Hearted
Russian River

 

With Beercations in Tampa, Asheville and Vermont the last few years I've crossed a lot off my list.
A trip to Maine this fall should take care of Treehouse, MBC and maybe Trillium.
A week in California is going to be necessary someday to get to Russian River, Firestone Walker, Bruery, etc.

 

I may swing by those places on the 2nd myself.

 

1. Hill Farmstead
2. Weihenstephaner
3. Sierra Nevada
4. Surly
5. Cantillon
6. Dogfish Head
7. Tired Hands
8. Pilsner Urquell
9. Coors Brewery
10. Russian River

 

I was just at Other Half on Saturday. Super small and awesome beer! Very much a "duct tape and plywood" operation but the equipment there is all beer business. Take the F Train to Smith-9th St and bang a left and a right.

 

I don't really care about visiting the brewery, as long as I can drink the beer.

 

I meant Westvleteren and Cantillon. US East Coast (New England Brewing and Tree House) is late next month. Maybe NYC breweries on a future trip. No time this round.

 

Yeah, I got Cantillon on schedule for the 2nd, Westvleteren is a "maybe" the next day. I'm in Europe for honeymoon, so I don't know how much breweries we will get to do since we already planned Cantillon and de Halve Maan.

 

A recommendation I have, if you can swing it, is to stay over night at St. Bernardus. Beautiful little place, definitely honeymoonish. She will like it. And you can hit Westvleteren (In De Vrede) on your way there.

 

We were just in Europe and went to both Cantillon and De Halve Maan. I highly recommend both! You cannot visit or see any of the brewing facilities for Westvleteren so we passed on it.

 

Maybe Cantillon, otherwise I am ok with New England, Montreal and NYC/eastern NY.

 

I must follow in tone77's recent footsteps & visit the Minhas Craft Brewery before I die!

 

Congrats. As a guy who delicately balances beercation and family-vacation...and has managed to remain married for 22 years to a non-drinking spouse...I'll just say to make sure the honeymoon portion comes first.
If you see a guy with two grumpy-looking teenagers in Cantillon on Monday morning trying to chug a lambic and go before the wife gets pissed, that's me!

 

Stone
Dogfish head
Three Floyds
Russian River
Cigar City
Troegs
Westvleteren

 

Ditto that. If this list is about breweries you have to visit, then I really can't come up with any. Going to beer bars, however, allow me to enjoy beers from a few breweries at once.

 

Weihenstephaner. And something Trappist.
