    Hahaha at Cranker's being #10 on the list. Sigh...

    The article says Crankers has upped their game. I was there last year and the beers were good, sounds like it might be another stop in the future.

    As I travel around the state, I find breweries can improve, or deteriorate. Often it depends on the head brewer, and if she or he have left.

    At least this is a list that included visits to the breweries.

    I've had three (two on draft, one in bottle) and wasn't overly impressed with any of them. The Coconut Porter and Professor IPA were decent at best. I know it's all subjective, but I have trouble seeing how Cranker's could be on there, but not something like Odd Side.

    Sure, I have similar comments about others breweries on the list, but think it is not productive to be negative. It is just another list on the Internet.

    Wow, really expected to see Perrin in a better spot. It was 11 down on the "best of the rest" list. I also disagree with several of the other choices, but that is just my opinion, and this is theirs.
