I'm an IPA fan, myself, and I'd have to say that Sculler's IPA by Skagit River Brewery in Mount Vernon, WA is excellent. Pretty much all of Rogue's brews (out of OR, as already mentioned) are stellar, too, with my favorites being the Hazelnut Brown Nectar and Mocha Porter. Leavenworth Brewery in Leavenworth, WA makes a great unfiltered hefeweizen. Silver City Brewery in Silverdale, WA does a very fine Whoop Pass Double IPA, MacFarlane's Scotch Ale, and the Bavarian Style Hefeweizen is tasty (appreciable banana notes).
Wow, wanderlust,
those sound awesome. I had the pleasure of trying another poster's brew choice a few weeks ago...Edmund Fitzgerald Porter...it's out of this world. VERY good, indeed.
Thanks for the tip, summers! Where would one get that brew? You could probably tell from the post that I'm in Washington State, where we are fortunate to have a plethora of fine breweries, even in the small cities. If you think you'll ever be out in these parts, I'd be happy to give you some ideas on where to go for a great micro. I tend to gravitate toward the very hoppy, strong brews...the MacFarlane's Scotch Ale and Scullers are fairly high in alcohol content, too, so I have to remember to pace myself!
Browns up in Troy NY has a great Whiskey Porter,and one of my favorites is the Pale Ale up in The Davidsons Brewpub in Glens Falls NY.
I could go on for hours but I will spare everyone
