    North Carolina and California, for sure.

    Vermont (Hill Farmsted, Alchemist, Lawsons) and California (too numerous to mention). Will throw in my home state of CT as a third if only because I can't live without NEBCO!

    TX and CO. I live in central TX. The quality and variety is outstanding. Favorite breweries include (but not limited to) 512, Real Ale, Live Oak, Independence, several others. CO because several of my favorite 'distributed' beers come from there - Oskar Blues, Ska, New Belgium, etc. Running very close to the 'winners' would be OR and CA, with a special shout out to NY (the land of my birth) - Brooklyn Brewery and Ommegang.

    Tough one.. Too bad I haven't had much from Florida, but there's so much I wanna try there!

    Toss up among California, Florida, Vermont, Michigan, Illinois and Indiana.
    Probably would have to go with Illinois and Vermont.

    Actually, I think I might be content just drinking Hoponius Union for the rest of my life, so Massachusetts and Illinois would be my choice.

    Michigan and California. Thankfully, due to consensus, it's hard to be considered a homer for Michigan!

    , my brother moved out to San Fran a year ago... However, we have yet to visit him and haven't had him ship me anything yet. Maybe he can get me some White Chocolate somehow

    California would be one. But I'm having a tough time choosing between Illinois and Michigan for the second

    Connecticut and Wisconsin (I know I'm from here but could never live without NG)
    My reasoning is NEBCO and New Glarus. If I could get both all the time I'd be in heaven.

    I live in VT and have to go by word of mouth as well. The "Big Three" in VT are little more than home brewers- in order to qualify as a great brewery I think you should at least make enough beer to supply more than your friends and people who want to drive 10 miles down a dirt road to pick up some.

    Not the worse thread I have ever seen, but some of the stupidest answers.

    Is availability a factor? If not I would probably go with California and Vermont with Michigan and Colorado just missing the cut.

    these polls would be much better if you weren't allowed to vote for your home state
