One brewery to rule them all.

Being zeroed in on hoppy beers right now, along with factoring in availability, I'm wavering between 3F, Founders, and Central Waters.

 

FFF all day all night.

close 2nd to Founders
3rd FFF
4th Founders
5th FFF

You get the picture!

Cheers

 

Port/Lost Abbey

 

Smuttynose for sure. It is so underated in my opinion and the price point of their stuff is great. Honorable mention goes to 3 Floyds.

 

New Glarus

 

Although they're not that well known outside of Texas, I haven't had a bad brew from SA. Their Elissa IPA is one of the most underrated out there...very nice.

 

Another 3F fanboy reporting in. When I was a know-nothing college kid, the local bar had $3 schooner (read: fishbowl) fill night of anything on tap. Robert the Bruce was the highest alcohol content on the bar one night, so I went for it. And who would have thought it tasted amazing too! I have never had anything from 3F that I didn't think was top-notch for the style.

 

The Bruery for me, although I would miss a lot of them. Mostly Russian River, AleSmith, and Uinta.

 

Oof, ok.

It's sort of a toss-up between The Bruery and Three Floyds. Three Floyds for Behemoth and Zombie Dust (plus all the other delicious beers I have yet to try) and The Bruery for everything they do (except White Oak). I would greatly miss CCB and Mikkeller.

 

If only Bruery made IPA's..

 

One brewery to rule them all, one brewery to find them, one brewery to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them

 

I'll probably have to go with Sierra Nevada as well. Though locally I have Marble Brewing, who pretty much make every style and do a damn good job of it too, be it Hoppy brews, Barrel aged brews, lagers, sours, ect. But most of their stuff is brewery only, so SN wins by default just due to availablity.

 

Ballast Point. They brew my favorite IPA and porter.

 

founders without question. the beer is great and the added bonus of having the grand rapids bus station central hub across the street so i can enjoy their beers without having to drive home is perfect. more breweries should set up close to public transit.

 

I drink more Cambridge Brewing Company beers than anything else as they brew awesome beer in many styles. Their barrel stuff is spectacular.

 

Anheuser Busch/InBev.

Oh wait, we were doing fantasy, not reality?

 

Wow, Bitch of a Sophie's Choice... I like FW for the quality and variety-Double Jack, Sucaba, Parabola, Velvet merlin, etc... Love the Bruery for Black Tuesday & a few other offerings. Sierra Nevada is top notch. Ah Shit...
Wow, this is hard.

 

...and in the darkness bind them. OK, so one brewery, forged in secret, that would betray all of the other breweries, bending them all to its own dark will and creating a world ruled by evil beer. I've got my eye on Stone...

 

As of now, I'm going Three Floyds. Founders are a close second, and Sierra Nevada easily pull third. I believe that Cigar City would be my shit if I had had the pleasure of any of their beers...

 

For hopheads its got to be the alchemist. Heady Topper seriously ruined me... in a good way.
