    I am 25 minutes from Trillium and 10 minutes from Jack's Abby. They both regularly crush it with their IPAs/IPLs and BA stouts.

    Grey Sail. Love that Captains Daughter. Also only a 50 minute ride to Trillium so thats nice. Also gotta love Nightshift too. LIving in the Northeast in general you are spoiled by beer.

    I'm going to say Trillium. I dig every beer those guys put out and it definitely spoils some other good stuff haha

    What sucks about living in the Triangle area of North Carolina is rarely seeing great brews from NC. If I could get fresh Hop Drop on the regular I would be thrilled. Same with Wicked Weed and Burial brews.

    Two Hearted cans that don't have to travel too much in distribution are nice.

    I walked into my local spot yesterday and bought a CASE of two day old Surly Todd the Axe Man. Spoiled doesn't even begin to describe it.

    I live in Maryland. Our distribution still isn't that wonderful, DC/NOVA traffic is a bitch to deal with, and finding beer fresh is VERY difficult - even the locals are two to three months old, on average.

    What is this "spoiled" you speak of?

    Not much. I generally buy at my bottle shops. Sun King offers decent but generally not exceptional options. I'd never consider them a brewer that makes me skip what I can get bottled. I've heard good things about several local breweries, but none is terribly convenient so I've yet to try them.

    Living 20 minutes from Jester King. Non-release weekends eating great pizza and drinking world class beer.
