What's your favorite craft brewery and why?
Short's Brewery in Bellaire, MI. A bunch of reasons. I grew up there. I've seen how much the town has changed now that it has become a beer destination and not just a ski resort destination. Their beers kick ass. They have 20 beers on tap, typically, if not more. I've had a lot of interesting and creative brews there, and learned a lot about beer in the process. Also, a relative of mine once owned the building when it was a hardware store, several years before becoming Short's.
Yooper said:Great Lakes (in Cleveland) is another one that I love. All of their styles are good representations of the style, while their robust porter (Edmund Fitzgerald) is the gold standard of the style. Their IPAs are also ridiculously good, while the APA they are known for, Burning River, is a very nice one.
Hanger 24 .. great atmosphere and great beer.
Firestone is my desert island brewery.
Ever been there? It's a giant restaraunt too. They had/have a beer on tap. Forgot the name. But, I had a sample. The beer tasted as smooth as if to melt in your mouth. Man. Very good. Not creamy, not smokey, chocolate. Just a damn fine brew. Only serve it on tap at Firestone brewery.

Gotta say Founders. Haven't had anything I don't like from them. And KBS wow!
