    That's what the "Which brewery has gained a following the fastest" thread is for:wink:

    jhavs said it. Lost Nation is way under appreciated. I met the head brewer last year. Good dude. They had a beer that was like an orgasm in my mouth. Just unreal. I regret to this day that I didn't get a growler of it.

    On this site, pick almost any classic British or German brewery and you will find an underrated brewery. Samuel Smith, Fuller's, Young's all come to mind from Britain.

    Sly Fox. I think they make some of the best lagers in America. I love visiting their brew pub when I am in the area just to taste their latest creations. Abita also makes several styles well and their latest releases have all been really tasty.

    How about the Brew Kettle & Hoppin Frog. There local for me and I overlook them from time to time. But everything they do is solid

    I love Pipeworks, but they are not underrated. They are hyped quite a bit in chicago.

    I think Spiteful would be my answer at the current moment. But with Brickstone now canning, that may change soon.

    The sadly defunct-for-now Enlightenment. Fantastic saisons, pretty overlooked even locally because, well... saisons. Those of us in the know will certainly miss them.

    I personally Tired Hands doesn't get nearly enough credit however I admit I am a bit of a "fangirl" for them.

    Although I do not like Purple Haze . I agree some of their newer beers including Wrought Iron IPA are very good

    I've recently been exposed to Neshaminy Creek and I feel like they get next to no love on here, they're producing some great stuff

    I personally wasn't a huge fan of it but "Shape of Hops to Come" has gotten some decent love and attention.

    Ozark Beer Company in Rogers Arkansas. Their BDCS was one of the best beers I've ever had and was definitely better than most of the hyped barrel aged stouts on BA. The APA and Belgian are great, as well. By the end of the year, they should be canning their IPA, Cream Stout and Onyx Coffee Stout. I can't wait for distribution to Oklahoma. :sunglasses:

    Fat Heads. Yes they are local but I honestly have not had a bad beer from them and Head Hunter is a massively underrated IPA.

    What's the latest count of U.S. breweries, according to the Brewers Association - 3,464 at the end of 2014? I'm sure there are a ton of all-time greatly under-valued breweries except to those customers who know that great local one and they support it with patronage and by turning on their friends, families and acquaintances.

    I think Head Hunter has won a few awards... Great beers!
