Zamoro, do you like Deschutes at all? They make two of my favorite IPAs.
Fresh-Squeezed IPA, tastes like you are biting into a peach.
Yep...I've even been out to Bend where they have their own brew pub...and you can try all their beers.
And gone to Rogue Brewery multiple times under the bridge (Dead Guy Ale is awesome) - they have a restaurant and a cool bar were you can order a sampler...about 15 8oz glasses of all their beers.
Inversion IPA is great but I really love their seasonal Ales...
Hop Trip and the Jubelale - darker, spice notes, hoppy.
Oregon has some of the world's best breweries...Rogue, Deschutes, Ninkasi, Bridgeport, etc.

Would be nice to see it show up in the new Braves stadium when built.
Sweetwater already has a pretty big presence at Turner Field, I'm sure it will be even bigger at the new park. I am hoping they have some kind of a brewpub at the area outside the park. Craft beer is blowing up in atlanta right now, I'm sure they recognize that.
The thing that you don't get at Turner that you would at say Safeco is multiple or vast options. I have seen Terrapin, Sweetwater, Goose Island, maybe a couple other locals at Turner and that is it. Sweetwater is everywhere in the stadium but nothing else really.

Yep. Turner is fine, but limited options for food and drink. I was blown away at AT&T by the sheer number of venders.

beer people are so weird and annoying to me. It's beer. If you were that much of a flavor snob you should drink wine or a really floral gin or a small batch whiskey.

wtf? By that logic why even enjoy anything in life? It's only taste and quality you're sacrificing after allPosted on 8/13/14 at 2:22 pm to SirWinston

Loved the ATL stuff (Sweetwater Blue was my lake beer) when I was living in Tennessee... Drove to Asheville twice a month and went brewery hopping and buying my West Coast craft at Bruisin Ales
As much as I love Southeast craft, and there is some damn good stuff going on in Asheville right now, nothing has compared to what I've discovered in Wisconsin and Michigan since my move to Chicago.
I think New Glarus Brewing product Spotted Cow may have taken top dibs for me... just great stuff.

. Yankee stadium had a selection of craft beers but they weren't spread out across stadium. There would be like a central local station you had to go to. Visited in April.
I was in yankee stadium last Wednesday. There is no craft beer in that park. They have a couple goose island and blue moon beers but no other "craft" beers. The only craft beer on the property was Bronx pale ale but you can only get that in the hard rock attached to the stadium and you can't bring beer from the hr into the stadium.

Petco had a great beer (and food) selection.

I'm not so sure about that. Asheville is doing some incredible things. Nashville is doing great stuff as well.
And as great as the California and the Pacific Northwest is, you cannot ignore the upper New England states of Vermont, Maine, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire. One could easily argue that that is the best region for beer.

careful with the word easily....
Posted on 8/13/14 at 7:14 pm to Forkbeard3777
I don't know about easy.
Oregon and Washington and California (who actually started it all with Anchor Steam) have been doing this for 25+ years.
East Coast does have some good brews.
But the NW is literally the hot-bed small brew culture...of each town having their own local brew...and brew-pub/ale/public house...hell in Oregon they turn old elementary schools and houses into pubs.
Seattle is just as creative.
America's Best Beer cities
Surprising Denver is so high on this list...have to check them out.

CO as a whole puts out a lot of good stuff. My dad lives in Denver so I get to try stuff fairly frequently.

Saw the link...curious how they came up with some of those cities....like NOLA. Awesome party scene no doubt but if just based off beer it should be down the list and Bend should be atleast on it.
Posted on 8/13/14 at 7:52 pm to LSUintheNW
I don't know about NOLA.
And Colorado...all I remember is that they were in on the scene early on.
Because I do remember my former brother-in-law who lived in Fort Collins - bringing me a Fat Tire beer back in 1993 back to California.

That craft beer stand they have is amazing

You're right. I shouldn't have said easily. However, as a big proponent of the craft beer movement and fellow home brewer, I do believe that they can legitimately be considered the best region. They don't necessarily have the numbers as the Pacific Northwest or California, and rightfully so, but I believe that pound for pound, they have the best quality beers. Just off the top of my head...

That's been happening in the New England states and Upper Peninsula, Wisconsin, and Minnesota for decades as well. Tons of local pubs that you can only buy beer their for consumption. The Upper Peninsula and Wisconsin have some great country-side cottages that produce quality ales. I wish they bottled them, but I guess it would lose some of its nostalgia.
