One of my favorite resources for finding good beer bars and beer stores is:
http://beermapping.com/

It's basically a google map overlay'ed with good places to get beers, divided into categories (brewery, brewpub, beer bar, beer store, and homebrew store). There are maps for the major cities as well as entire regions of many countries.

I always check it before I travel anymore. If you know of a place that's not listed, its your duty as a beer lover to submit it

I'm in baltimore city and I've tried to find a home brew place on Google Maps...

... it looks like bars are showing up that list themselves as "microbreweries." Does that mean they make their own beer on-site?

DuClaw is in the Arundel Mills Mall. I've been there a few times. Their beer is pretty good.

This forum surprises me because a handful of the members seem to be near me...

I guess beer really does bring people together.

DuClaw is near where my son lives. They have a number of regular brews and then rotate their seasonal ones. They have a club and send out announcements by email when they are having a new release. I've had a few good ones from them.

Speaking for Delaware, we're a state that has several distributors, but they're all owned by one family and have different names so it doesn't look like a monopoly, but you know it really is. We're fortunate enough to be close to MD and PA and can get different beers via them.

I'm the 1st VP for the Delaware Saengerbund and my main job is to manage the bar. Here's what we serve

Bottle;
Miller Lite, Yuengling Light, Becks, Pilsner Urquell, Corona, DAB, Paulaner Salvator, and Hacker Pschorr Sternweisse. Our N.A. is Warsteiner.

Tap:
Paulaner Hefeweisse, Spaten, Yuengling, Ayinger Oktoberfest, Warsteiner, Penn Dark

All of our beers are simple price.
Yuengling tap - $2.50 1/2 liter
All others $3.00 1/2 liter

Domestic bottle- Miller Lite and Yueng light - $1.75
Imports - $2.25

I get a free hand in ordering beer and I do a rotating tap in which I have had recently: Dogfish 60 min, Dogfish Fentina Peche, Victory Prima Pils etc..

I too get annoyed when you go out and can only get watery half azzed versions of real beer. Especially when I know what can be ordered. Most places don't go in for higher priced beers because they think people aren't going to pay for it. Examples of wholesale cost:

Hacker Pschorr Sterweisse - $45 a rack (German case, 20 16.9 oz btls)
Dogfish 1/2 barrel - $119 (Dogfish 90 min - $149)
Troegs - $99 1/2 barrel
Paulaner $129 1/2 barrel

Compared to:
Bud - $72 1/2 barrel
Bush - $62 1/2 barrel
Natural Light - $45 1/2 barrel
Coor's - $55 1/2 barrel
Yuengling light $14.15 case

Most places are a 300% markup. We just try to make a little profit to cover operational expenses. But being a private club we can. Which makes me wonder why others, ie FOP and all just carry BMC. So if the beer is available, why not carry it? You won't find anyone in the state carrying a decent line like us, but they can.

Anyway, sorry for the long rant. If any of you are ever in the area, (Newark DE) feel free to yell and you are welcome to stop by. We also allow smoking (Cigars too ) or stop by for our Oktoberfest, third week in Sept. We'll be serving Hacker Pschorr Oktoberfest and have Twin Lakes brewery as well as our international Pavillion.

In Oregon any good eatery is almost expected to have a microbrew on tap anymore, it's actually really nice, trouble is a lot of us have come to the point where we want more obscure things over here, I guess we're kind of spoiled .
