Sierra is a great choice, they are one of a handful of great breweries that still use whole cone hops. They even produce an Estate Ale which is the only one in the country. Fat Tire is meh, but the New Belgium La Folie is one of the best Wild Ales in the world.

And Joel,

Still on the Montana beer thing?!! lol. I wouldn't dare speak ill of Moose Drool, but give Bayern a shot. Great lagers. Pelican is great but way over priced. Ninkasi is a picture perfect example of what hype, advertising and distribution can do to a mediocre brewery. They only have one stand out brew, Tricerahops. The rest (of the year rounds) are sub par. I do like the new brewery though, it has a nice feel.


oh yeah, I used to spot cars of beer to Oregon Transfer at Albina :)
