I assumed this would be a good thread for the FBD posters. What are the breweries in your city and how would you rank them?
For Charleston (my ranking...best from top to bottom).
Coast
Westbrook - technically Mount Pleasant
Holy City
Freehouse
Revelry
Palmetto

Yazoo Brewing Company - Biggest in town. Their everyday beers are average. Sue is above average. Embrace the Funk line is very above average.
Blackstone Restaurant & Brewery - Oldest guys in town. They seem to be branching out more these days. Bonus brewpub
Tennessee Brew Works - Basic style beers, but usually spiced with something. Above average
Black Abbey Brewing Company - Another above average brewery. I'm a big fan.
Jackalope Brewing Company - Average stuff.
Fat Bottom Brewing - Meh
Jubilee Craft Beer Company - Meh
Czann's Brewing Company - Meh
Little Harpeth Brewing - Lagers only. Very good steam beer.
Turtle Anarchy - Average beers. Good porter.
Cool Springs - Can make some decent stuff. Bonus brewpub
Our beer laws and taxes blow, so that hinders our breweries some.

Goose Island is the only one I've been to, but we've got 20-something in the city.
One of my buddies went to each one with a taproom in one day and tried a beer at each for an article

If I'd consider Houston my city since I'm in the burbs, it'd be much larger.

Alaskan Brewery.
Our company has a restaurant and we're considering opening our own, but nowhere on the scale of the Alaskan.

Greater Houston
Karbach - Regular lineup and seasonals are decent but FUN series and BBH takes them to the top in my book
Saint Arnold - mainly because of their BB and DR series. Their normal lineups are pretty meh
Lone Pint - yellow rose alone brings them up to #3 or #4
Buffalo Bayou - small but lots of creative options going on. Some of it is hit or miss but at least they arent putting out the same ole stuff as everyone else
8th Wonder - Rocket Fuel gets them above the rest
Southern Star - Buried Hatchet and Black Crack are good
Texian - haven't had much, but their Saison wasn't terrible
No Label - I've been very underwhelmed with what I've had
For Bend - not sure if I've even had any of their beers but it wasn't memorable if so

According to the San Francisco Brewers Guild there are 20 breweries in the city--some of which I haven't tried yet.
I would place the following in the top tier of SF Breweries:
Cellarmaker
Almanac
Magnolia
21A
Anchor
Beyond that its a mixed bag and ones I haven't tried. The closest to me (Social Brewery) is average and since its only 5 blocks away, I really should go more often.
The one I haven't gone to yet that I'm most interested in is Barrel Head Brewhouse

We work on a shiny new 15 barrel Prospero brewhouse, with two 15 barrel fermenters and three 15 bbl bright tanks. Our array of awesome guest beers allows us to brew whatever we are inspired to make on any given brew day. We enjoy experimentation and also trying to nail classic styles. We like to keep our regulars on their toes by constantly brewing new innovative beers encompassing the spectrum of malty, hoppy, and weird. We use the highest quality ingredients and never rush the fermentation. Oh, and we dry-hop pretty much everything. So far we have brewed a Saison, Black Kolsch, IPA, Roggenbier, Colonial Porter, Wet Hop Pale Ale, Hefeweizen, and have a Double IPA, Imperial Red Ale, Framboise, and Oktoberfest on deck.
