    Damn, picking 2 is hard... therefore, I will buck the system.

    Pick two (on any given day):

    Founders
    FFF
    18th Street
    Clown Shoes
    Cigar City

    I don't want to sound like a homer, but I have to say Founders. It's a nine mile bike ride from home and they have a great lineup that evolves constantly.
    Stone and Lagunitas are almost a tie, but I think Stone wins.

    To be fair, I am going with breweries who's samplings are readily available to me, in turn giving me an opportunity to try a good selection of their brews...
    1)Maine Beer Company
    2)Victory Brewing

    I can always find their stuff within a short drive of my house, and their stuff is so damn delicious!
    My honorable mention, I'd have to say, is Modern Times Beer. I have to work a little harder to get my hands on their beer, but man, I've been impressed. Especially Fortunate Islands!

    Russian River & Lagunitas.

    Was very hard to leave Firestone Walker, Avery, Victory, and Crooked Stave off that (very) short list. Good topic, making posters winnow it down to 2.

    Too difficult. Based purely on what I have in the fridge right now, it's Victory and Sierra Nevada, but that changes so much throughout the year
