What is your neighborhood brewery?

[Broham1]

I have about a 5 minute walk to Cole St. Brewing. In the summers he opens up the bay doors and we have a beautiful view of Mt. Rainier. He also allows our pups to hang out with us as we enjoy a cold brew, good conversation and one of the best views in the world!

Hey, I went to high school in Enumclaw!

 

[firerat]

The Funky Buddha and Fort Lauder-ALE are the only 2 I know of in Broward county.

 

[Tkeonce]

5 minutes from Stoudts and a nice Brew Pub called Union Barrel Works, I don't think they sell outside of the pub. I really enjoy Saucony Brewing which is down the street from my sons college. Troegs is about 45 minutes but we get to Hershey about 4 times a year and Troegs is a must for a snack and a couple of beers.

 

[BeerFst]

I'm about a block from Blue Point, and just down the road from Brickhouse Brewery, the latter does not distribute much though

 

[punkrawkgeek]

I have a ton of breweries very close to home. Vancouver seems to be pumping out the beer in the last couple of years. They are all about 10-20 mins away, depending on traffic.

Green Leaf Brewing
Black Kettle Brewing
Deep Cove
Bridge Brewing
Parallel 49
Storm
Coal Harbor

I mostly hit up Bridge or Green Leaf on the North Shore... Those are my go to's.

Well 10 barrel isn't exactly local anymore. AB.-inbev just bought them.

 

[userzero]

La Voie Maltée in Chicoutimi, Quebec, Canada. Translates as "The Malty Way". About 5 minutes from my house, life is good there. I like their Red Ale and their Stout. And great food too! They also have a seasonal IIPA that's very good.

Closest brewery to me is about 35 minutes away....and they are very new...

So far.. pretty good..

Texas Beer Refinery


If I can just win a big enough lottery, then I'll open one with five miles of my house.. and it will be glorious.....

 

[johnmac22]

Lots of good breweries in your area.. I like Crooked Fence too. But, sadness happens.. I see 10 Barrel was bought out by In-Bev (Bud) Another great craft brewery bought by big money. Can't blame the guys.. but, sooooo sad. Been counters will change it despite what the guys said.

Yeah it is sad. I'm glad Payette and Sockeye are still small. I used to live in Healdsburg myself. Still have family in town...luckily I still have access to Bear Republic and RR through them!! :rockin:

 

[eddiewould]

5 minutes (walk) from Garage Project http://garageproject.co.nz/
15 minutes from Parrot Dog https://www.facebook.com/parrotdog
20 minutes from Baylands Brewery http://www.baylandsbrewery.com/
30 minutes from Kereru http://kererubrewing.co.nz/
1 hour from Tuatara http://tuatarabrewing.co.nz/

Think that's about it?

 

[Hanglow]

Driving for an hour hardly seems local. I guess there would maybe be 30 or so breweries in that. Not many compared to other parts of UK

There aren't many within the city, Clockwork (small brewpub that does so-so beers), WEST (a german/scottish brewery, does limited beers but quite nice), Drygate (only just started, looks promising), Jaw brew (just started, only had one beer)

I'd go for WEST as they do a nice pork knuckle to go with their beer

 

[scdigger]

Inside of 30 minutes, I've got Thomas Creek, Brewery85, Quest...

Give me an hour and half (Asheville), I've got:

Highland
Asheville
Green Man
French Broad
Pisgah
Wedge
Thirsty Monk
Lexington
Oyster House
Altamont
Blue Mountain
Wicked Weed
High Wire

Burial
Twin Leaf

Sierra Nevada

And about 10 others with a little more drive time...

Vrijstad bier (http://www.brouwerijvrijstad.nl/#onsbier).
Their "keller" beer is not great...amber beer, like a bad version of Palm.

 

[ABVIBUSRM]

Lost Coast
Redwood Curtain
Eel River
6 Rivers brewing
Mad River
Regeneration Ale (haven't tried this one yet)

[brewcephus]

My list is no where near as great as some of these, especially Grand Rapids, but here goes.

15 mins
Southern Prohibition

60 mins north
Lucky Town

60 mins south
Crooked Letter

though I'm sure more are going to be popping up soon.

 

[Remmy]

OEC Brewing - 7 miles - ~10 minutes
Black Hog Brewing - 6 miles - ~10 minutes
New England Brewing - 10 miles; ~15 minutes

Silver Peak Brewery
Stoneyhead Brewing
BJs Restaurant & Brewery
Brew Brothers

Short drive:

Brewery Lake Tahoe
Fifty Fifty Brewing
Stateline Brewery
Ol Republic Brewery
Tahoe Brewing


I'm sure I've missed a couple.

 

[Hanglow]

I googled (yes I know, could be really wrong ) a couple of those grand rapids ones and one was 65 miles away from grand rapids. Is that really local for you?

Better not get someone from sheffield or nottingham here otherwise their post will take up a whole page. There are probably hundreds of breweries that are "local" then for them!

I suppose though you can drive much faster so cover more ground

horses for courses etc


edit: just seen you road network, holy **** those are some straight lines. The only straight roads we have were built in roman times

 

[catdaddy66]

Columbia SC is just getting into the craft brew scene and the original was Conquest Brewing, followed by River Rat Brewery. The newest (I haven't tried yet) is Swamp Cabbage Brewing.
