    What are some of your favorite AL breweries? Hoping to see more AL distribution in GA.

    I only judge a beer by the beer itself, not where it came from.

    Awesome - just checked their sites, and it doesn't look like either are near Atlanta yet, but I'll be on the lookout for them. Thanks!

    The one local brewery here is awful. The only other in-state beer I can get is Real Ale (pretty good), Rahr & Sons (mediocre as hell), and Shiner (if that counts). Really wish we got Jester King out here in west Texas.

    So, national stuff.

    i am in nor-cali -- i can get tons of Lagunitas and Bear Republic -- sandiego is well rep'd with STONE and PORT ... my local brewery is HERETIC. which is awesome.

    i am all for LOCAL vs, NOT LOCAL.

    but it is what it is, you are where you are.

    there are cali brews i cant get.... like Kern or Alpine... others are good but too pricey. Ruhstaller and Knee Deep.

    i like to get some pliny a couple times a year. but i dont really care -- when i have the oppurtunity to hit the tap room i go... but only on a weekday, early. the beer is good, the food is meh, if the bar is 2 deep --- pass pass.


    what i really want is ODELLS MYCENARY et al.

    other than that.... i dont drink bud or sam. also i see no point in DFH head being here.

    did i mention FW. i love you FW. where is union jack? it has been missing from my usual spots. you were in Raleys.... but now i only see PIVO and the mixed 12. no more UJ at the SUPERMARKET? too bad.

    DRAKES shout out! whats up drakes!?


    local is cool, but hey JERRY BROWN! MR GOVENOR. get some ODELLS up in here!
