Hello fellow blogger! I’m rather new to blogs but I just wanted to say that I enjoyed your blog here about big bear lake mountain fest; It kept me engrossed all the way to the end! Keep up the fine work… I’m always hoping to learn more about Big Bear California.

Mmmmm…beeeeeerrrrr…
You might also want to check out The 21st Amendment in San Francisco. They have a new Master Brewer on staff who’s beers I happen to know very well and I can highly recommend. OK, It’s my brother and I’m biased, but the boy does know his way around a brewery since he trained in Chicago and Germany.
Cheers!

Great article and great picks! Especially love the Flying Dog and 90 min shout out (120 min will completely ruin you if given the chance). Gotta come back over to the east coast and give Flying Fish from Jersey taste!

Did you guys get a chance to get down to Chico Ca ? They have a few microbrews there with the largest being Sierra Nevada. If you get a chance check them out.

I’ve been planning a similar trip myself but haven’t yet gotten on my way because I can’t seem to get out of Colorado without finding another great place! I wasn’t surprised to see New Belgium on the list (Fort Collins was my home of four years) but I was shocked to see Mighty Arrow as your pick! This isn’t to say I don’t enjoy that brew but I feel beers like 1554 and Abbey…even Frambozen (seasonal fruit beer, strictly for the fuit beer catagory) would work their ways into your list.
I was also unaware that Flying Dog was had officially left Denver (sad news). I had to sleep in my car one winter night in Steamboat Springs and the Gonzo Imperial Porter was the only thing I had to keep me warm! Happy to see they made the top of your list (and equally as shocked)!

Try some brews from New Glarus, WI. Fairly cheap, and great tasting. My favorite is the Spotted Cow, but there are several varieties. All smooth tasting.

Sorry but Purple Haze is one of the worst beers I’ve ever tasted. It tasted like bile. Horrible!!!!

You guys really missed out on a great brewery in Cleveland, OH! Great Lakes Brewery makes some of the most amazing beers in the United States. You don't win multiple gold medals at the World Beer Championships for nothing.
