Was told that Whole Foods head brewer in Houston just left to join B52


That sucks for WF as he was knocking them dead with his IPA's..

Has no one mentioned Drake's in San Leandro, CA?

Those who love the fruit, Berliner style beers will disagree with you, but for the styles I like, Copperhead and B-52 are neck and neck for me. Both do some excellent IPAs and stouts, and I’m also a big fan of Copperhead’s quad.

I’m not sure if Casa Agria is under the radar but they are probably my favorite brewery in the country right now.

Don't get me wrong, I've heard great things about B52's small batch and barrel series stuff. And I love their setting. I should probably give them another shot, but if Copperhead's beer was at B52 I'd be there every weekend.

Yeah same in Boston.

Wicked weed is good but it’s definitely not under the radar.

I cannot believe that no one has mentioned Prairie Ale from Oklahoma. I have never had one of their beers that I did not enjoy.

Fair enough, among beer nerds. But I would wager a substantial sum that 99% of the population has never heard of them. Depends upon your perspective, I suppose.
