    This may have been mentioned before, but for all those who love craft beer; Fort Collins / Boulder, CO is the place to be.

    Certainly one of the places to be, thats for sure. Fresh LaFolie from New Belguim and Myrcenary and IPA from Odell are my faves in that area. My fave though in Colorado was Oskar Blues - the Grapefruit G'Night and Gubna were incredible and Old Chub hot sauce drenched on a killer oyster po'boy made that Longmont joint my fave in CO.

    Now San Diego has some pretty fine craft brew ourselves, my friend... :wink:
    Prost!

    The same could be said for Asheville, NC and Portland, OR

    I'll give ya Portland for sure - I've had many a great pint there as well as from there.
    But outside of French Broad and Highlands, I personally was a tad underwhelmed by Asheville's local offerings...and being a big IPA fan, I find the west coast is the best coast for those...(Alchemist in VT being quite the exception)
    Fact of the matter is craft beer towns are stronger then ever, San Fran, Portland, Longmont/Fort Collins, San Diego, Bend, Kansas City, Vermont, MI, FL, IL, etc...
    I'd love some IPA suggestions from Asheville that I can try next time I get out that way or can look out for here.
    Cheers!

    You had to go all the way to Colorado to get Goose Island when you were just in Chicago a couple of weeks ago?

    It is a good beer though

    Scored 3 bottles of Cigar City Marshal Zhukov's Imperial Stout. So damn good.
