Favorite breweries that aren't distributed in your area

Founders Harvest Ale is one of the best offerings of the year, and I could drink their breakfast stout brings a tear to my eye.

 

I will send you Odell and Bells in exchange for RR! I have tons of both all over the place here.

 

In my rural neck of the New York / Pennsylvania outback there's a lot we don't have access to, but this is Southern Tier territory and I have found a lot of other decent stuff so I really don't feel deprived, I'm mostly happy with what we have locally. Though, I was thrilled when I found Old Rasputin! About the only one I want to try that I haven't been able to get is Pliny the Elder. Tried to get my mom to smuggle me back some from California last month but she wouldn't go for it.

 

I'd love me some Odell's and FW.

 

Great Divide, Bell's, Ballast point, Russian River, and Three Floyd's. To name a few!

 

Cigar City
Alpine
Terrapin
DuClaw
Surly

 

Basically everything under the sun.

DFH
Founders (haven't had)
Bell's
Ballast Point
Great Divide

At least give us Yuengling!

 

Oh man after GABF I wish there were a Funky Buddha lounge right down the street from me.

 

You/we get both in PA. FW is all over PA now.

 

Born and raised in Maine-
I miss The D.L. Geary Brewing Co.

Geary's! Wicked good

 

Founders, you can find it in every state surrounding WV. They probably even drive through WV to deliver everywhere else, but that's the case with most breweries.

 

Yes, what he said. LA distribution is pretty weak. I'd also love some Lagunitas, 3 Floyds, Bear Republic, Surly…thank God Terrapin is coming in January

 

Russian River
The Alchemist
Cigar City
New Glarus
Alesmith
Cascade
FFF
HOTD

It's easy to forget what great beer we do get here in VA.

 

Three Floyd's
Surly
Firestone Walker
Great Divide
Toppling Goliath

 

I'll add Deschutes, Boulevard, Jack's Abby, Allagash, Midnight Sun, Alpine, Half Acre, Odell, Firestone Walker, Jester King, (more) Cantillon, (more) Drie Fonteinen, (more) Anchorage, and the asshole answer that I came to this thread to give: Hill Farmstead/Grassroots, The Alchemist, and Lawson's.

 

Terrapin, and cigar city. Luckily being from Chicago we get a huge variety of stuff from both east and west coast, just not much on the heavy hitter side. But that makes trading even more fun! Surly will be welcomed with open arms in Chicago!

 

You should move!

 

Living OK, too many. Luckily, a good beer store in SW Missouri is a mere 43 miles away I'll start off by saying I wish more of Founders, Deschutes, Firestone Walker & Bell's harder to get stuff would land in sufficient quantity

But in a better world: Dry Dock, Alpine, Ale Smith, Surly, New Glarus, Oskar Blues, FFF, Crooked Stave, Uinita (sic), Weyerbacher, Victory, Olde Hickory, Great Lakes & at least 20 others I'm forgetting would work.

 

This The Shed?


It is available. It's owned by Long Trail now, so available, I assume, everywhere Long Trail is. Definitely in MA.

To answer the original question: to me, right now, those would be Great Lakes and New Glarus.
But, honestly, reading what other states can't get, I feel we are spoiled here in MA.
