    Remember the wingnuts who took over a wildlife refuge a few years ago? That was right in Steens town. The owners of Steens may, or may not, have agreed with their position.

    They hated, absolutely hated, how it just fucked up their local, rural, economy. Locals couldn't go anywhere cuz shit was on lockdown. Not the "please stay home" type lockdown we're all living with now. Armed lockdown.

    Steens was posting throughout "Hey, we're open, but, can y'all chill? We live here" type stuff.

    They earned much respect, by being calm and reasonable.

    Earns a vote in my eyes.

    Just the Kolsch and IPAs were enough to add Chuckanut and Georgetown to your list? I guess they made quite the impression on you :-)

    Ha - yes. :slight_smile: Part of my rationale is how much thought I would put into purchasing a new (to me) offering from the brewery. Based on my experience I would try whatever they offered regardless of style (same as the other three I listed). The list of breweries I feel that way about isn't too long. :slight_smile:

    Given your love of Sandy Paws, you owe it to yourself to drink the Chuckanut Baltic Porter.

    Maybe I should print out some "Certificates Of Achievement" and mail out to the breweries.

    OK, there were no new votes since Thursday, so our final results are:

    Fremont 200 pts
    Reubens 123
    Georgetown 85
    Chuckanut 53
    Skookum 50
    Holy Mountain 50
    Bale Breaker 30
    Cloudburst 19
    Floodland 13
    Wander 12
    Silver City 8
    Stoup 3

    No surprise for first, really. I thought Gtown would nail 2nd though. Kinda surprised Stoup only got the 3 points, folks on here seem to like them a lot.

    Those Certificates of Achievement will be in the mail, uh, soon.
