Just returned from Omaha Nebraska, visited Upstream and Farnam House breweries. There wasn't enough free time for more breweries, but a visit to Growlers USA and Too far North enabled me to sample more NE brews.
 
Couple small ones near me: Helderberg Mountain brewing and Real McCoy Brewing. The first time for the former, umpteenth time for the latter. Nice stuff at both.
 
Wow, this thread died else since my last post :p

Thirsty Monk
Green Man

REALLY wanted to go to Burial but they were having a saison fest the day I had a chance to visit, and the crew I was with wasn't interested.
 
Milk stout.

That is quite a list, BrewMan. I did some local visits here on LI. The Riverhead Cider House last Saturday Holy Schmitt was it packed and the Jamesport Farm Brewery also busy, but not crazy.

Yeah, I only go down there once a year so I try to make the most of it. Plus, my in-laws are very accommodating. Literally every time we didn't have something else to do, they were like "what brewery are we going to now?" I had put together a list, but we exceeded my expectations for pure numbers.
 
Made a repeat visit to People’s Pint in Toronto’s Junction neighbourhood. So many great beers, and probably my favourite tap room around [emoji482]

Last friday made the trek up to Alchemist with a friend who has done this sort of thing before. Also hit Rock Art, Lost Nation, Prohibition Pig, and Drop In.
 
I am here in Morganton, NC and hope to get to one or two breweries in the area. My choices are narrowed down to Granite Falls brewing and Fonta Flora. After checking out the websites I am leaning toward Fonta Flora. They seem to have some cool looking saisons and they play with unique ingredients.

Anyone have any feedback on these two businesses? Thanks in advance!

Went with Granite Falls as it was closer and the hours matched our schedule.

Very nice decor! And at 87° the a/c is welcome also. We sampled the Knotty Gurl blonde (nice and gentle), Mustang Beach (like a lime lager), the Bushfire red (moderate malt character) but the 3 Paw porter was the most flavorful selection. All were very good and I would recommend that you stop if you're close.Message_1528564909508.jpg 20180609_131709.jpg 20180609_131815.jpg

Just got back from south Florida. Visited about a dozen breweries. Our favorites were J Wakefield and Concrete Beach in Miami, Funky Buddha and LauderAle in Ft Lauderdale and Islamorada in the Keys. Going to hit Orpheus here in Atlanta next week.

What did you think of funky budda? I believe that is a system I built a few years ago for work
 
Its been a while, but that is a pretty big brewhouse. They've gotten a little too big and impersonal to me. We've decided we like the small breweries that only distribute locally, if at all. Much more character and fresher beer, and you can usually talk to someone that is not just a bartender, like a brewer or even the owner. Our favorites in the area were LauderAle, that has a 3 barrel system and Islamorada, that has a 5 barrel system.
 
Went to Coastal Dayz which just opened this year in Fort Myers. Pleasantly surprised.

We have arrived at Florida beer mecca, Cigar City. Having a Loko Love - oatmeal stout with coffee, vanilla, cinnamon and cacao.

Motorworks in Bradenton definitely stepping it up. Drinking a Florida Weiss with kumquat, very tasty.

Still in Bradenton at a nice microbrewery with food, called 3 Keys Brewing. They brew with a BIAB style full volume mash.
