    I've heard lots of good things. Hopefully I'll get to try them someday.

    Every brewery that's produced a single worthwhile beer. Too many to list here, but just think of the major California and Oregon breweries and Bells, Cigar City, etc...

    Except for Stone: they have been disappointing me these past few years to the point of me no longer trying every single beer they release. And Rogue. No longer chasing Rogue releases.

    And Firestone Walker: Pivo Pils and particularly 805 have been giant snoozers. But if they blend it or put it in a barrel, I'm still there.

    I'm currently working my way through all the Lagunitas offerings I can get my hands on. I've fallen hard for the west coast IPAs. Locally, I'm trying everything I can get from Jack's Abby, which I think is long-overdue.

    I try to stick with the smaller local breweries; there is a lot in the area of MA/RI and continually growing so it's going to be hard to keep up. Brewery visits can usually knock em all off the list in one trip, depending on how small they are, so that's always helpful.

    I do it to show support for the breweries -- not because every one of the beers are great, but because I like to support them. Plus, as a bonus, sometimes you find a beer you're really impressed by.

    In the spirit of the Olympics that just concluded, I'd say:
    Gold - Stone
    Silver - Victory
    Bronze - Founders

    Mostly local breweries like Bells, Founders, and now Dark Horse after having a few of their stouts.

    The Bruery, Firestone's Reserve Series, Goose Island's special releases, Almanac, Cascade, and Russian River (but they don't often create new brews).

    For historical reasons, and because I love novelty/experimentation, I still pick up every new Dogfish Head or New Belgium Lips of Faith release.
