Well Thin Man Brewery on Elmwood just released Funky Flow a collab with Mikkeller, definitely recommend checking out them bc they are the closest thing we have to NEIPAs. Bliss and most of the other IPAs are solid and sometimes have sours on tap like Minkey Boodle. Good food too.
I also recommend Big Ditch Brewing downtown, they have quite a few solid offerings and if you're feeling ambitious it's easy to go to these guys and check out Community Beer Works or Resurgence afterwards too.
There are lesser visited breweries, but those are my top 4 and they all do Crowlers to go besides big ditch which does Growlers.
You can find good NE IPAs but depends on timing, down in the south towns (East Aurora) Aurora Brew Works is having an Other Half share soon don't think this week.. But they carry a wide selections.
Other than that other bottle shops to check out would be down on Hertle and Elmwood would be Village Beer Merchant and up in Amherst I would recommend Premier Gourmet on Maple Rd. You can find a variety of schtuff especially at Premier.

I have a keg on tap at home of hayburner, unfortunately lock series is gone at the brewery but loved all of them.
Deep cut is insane this last batch. But thin man holds a special place in my heart

Hi everyone! I'll be visiting Buffalo in a couple weeks. Is there any brewerys that are a must visit? I like all beer styles but I'm definitely a hop head whether they're fruity and juicy or dank and piney. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
