Top to bottom what breweries do you think produce the most consistent line of products? I am new to the craft brew scene but I really love everything I have tried by Founders. I also have not tried anything by Lagunnitas that I did not enjoy.

You just asked two completely different questions.

My favorite? Hill Farmstead

Most consistent? maybe Budweiser

Looking for things available in BR?

Founders and Stone are two breweries that consistently produce great products. They aren't all winners, but do a good job.

I really like Ommegang (Cooperstown, NY) and North Coast Brewing (Ft. Bragg, CA) both available in Covington, LA. My favorite local breweries are Parish and Nola. I am not a maven or beer snob. I have a mild palate and lean towards Belgian style blonde and white ales.

No, I am in Savannah, Ga. I wish I could try some of the local beers I hear you guys talk about. Only LA beer available here is abita.

Stone is great, others from California that you should be able to get are green flash and Sierra nevada. Those are some of my top ones as far as having a lot of great choices.

Haven't ever had a turd from Bell's or 3Floyds. For locally available (in BR) Founders and Stone would likely get my vote across their range of offerings, with Lagunitas in there too.

For anyone who only gets Abita as representing LA, our deepest apologies.

I guess I could list some great brewery that I have to trade my daughter to get, but I'll just go with Great Raft because I'm a homer and they are local

Bell's distributes to GA and has a diverse and solid lineup. Their Two Hearted Ale, an IPA, is one of my favorite IPAs. Their stouts are all great too, with Expedition Stout being my favorite.

As far as local stuff goes, Terrapin, out of Athens, makes some good beers.

I have tried those two by Bells and enjoyed them. Terrapin has been kinda hit to miss for me but I really like moo boo and really really like wake n bake. I like their chocolate peanut butter porter on occasion to. I don't think it's a great beer or anything but it is really drinkable when I get a craving for it. What other terrapin beers would you reccomend?
