I mean lets be honest; is there any brewery more solid? They cover several different styles and they do them all well to very well. If I could only drink one brewery's beer for the rest of my life, it'd be theirs...

Soulive said:I'd agree with Smutty if I liked their Summer wheat beer. I didn't enjoy that but they do make several very good beers...
I tried Mirror Pond a few weeks ago, and wasn't terribly impressed. Not bad mind you, but just not a standout.blacklab said:I have always especially enjoyed Mirror Pond, but their Black Butte Porter is great, Obsidian Stout is also very nice. I pretty much like all of their stuff.

Soulive said:Brooklyn always holds a place in my heart, but beer for beer they're not as well-rounded. Just comparing Brooklyn's seasonals to Sierra's seasonals proves my point. Truth be told though, I have been getting turned off by Garrett Oliver lately...
That's a very tough question. Sierra is a class act and has been responsible IMHO for making Am IPA's so popular today. Their celebration ale was one of the 1st, and their pale ale is great. They do not have as many diverse styles though as some other craft brewers today. That is changing with their seasonals as I just had my first lager from them, the summer fest. A very good example that is very easy drinking. Yes they do a great job but there are also a lot of other great craft brewers out there.Soulive said:I mean lets be honest; is there any brewery more solid?

blacklab said:I need to try some Dogfish, you guys all seem to enjoy the 60 and the 120. I haven't seen it too much around here, but I also haven't really dug around at the specialty place.

- The tap room taps are always flowing with 7 different beers.
- There is the occasional bottle of wood aged IPA or RIS.
- They have some lighter ABV brews on tap for day time sessions.
- They have free Triscuits.
Seating is limited, but I always get there early.
Okay...Triscuits are 5 cents each...Soulive said:This is the Commercial section!

So far I've had SNPA, SN Porter, SN Anniv Ale, SN Celebr Ale, and I just bought a 6'er of the SN ESB.Bobby_M said:I have a confession to make. SNPA is the only SN beer I've ever had and I don't really LOVE it. I guess I have some work to do.

I've only had the Gordon IPA, and I'll admit that it was very strange to pour such a flavorful beer from a can. You gotta try that stuff!chriso said:I love cans with a passion. (It's the redneck hidden in me that also likes PBR.)

There. I said it.
