Sister beer to the above. Possibly the perfect kielbasa or bratwurst brew? I had it a few weeks ago and didn't like it. With sauerkraut and a dog, on the other hand ... glorious.

Spent a little time down at Mishap Brewing in Buffalo, WY this afternoon after golf. If you are headed to Denver from Twin Cities, Billings, Chicago,...... You probably go right by it. Award winning wheat beer, killer IPA's, a Kolsch, cream ale the list goes on; try it you'll like it.

Black Hog Ginga Ninja has always been a favorite of mine. Went to their brewery in Oxford, CT the other day and was blown away by the rest of their selection. OMG I could live there. Lots of everything including sours and ipa's.

I like the looks of that one. One of my favorite pale ales is a Mosaic Pale. Probably won't find Hobo Brewing beers here, but i'll look for Galaxy pales to get an idea.

When I was in Bozeman last week., I had the pleasure of trying this amber ale from Bozeman's own Outlaw Brewery. pretty tasty - especially with all of the delicious food at the Blackbird Restaurant - highly recommended!

There's a quality brewery right outside of Philadelphia called Victory that brews a really good double IPA called Dirt Wolf - last night one of my local bar/restaurants had it on a nitro tap... amazing! really changed the whole flavor, smoothed out the hop bite in a really nice way.

I'm normally an IPA gal but sometimes a Shock Top just calls my name.

Not drinking beer during the week sure makes it taste better when i do.

Toppling Goliath Brewing Company's Pseudo Sue, a single hop (Citra) pale ale. Fragrant, juicy, nice persistent head.

Toppling Goliath (Decorah, Iowa) currently holds the top spot on BeerAdvocate's list of the 200 best beers with their Kentucky Brunch Brand Stout.

My favorite hops now are Mosaic and Citra. Seems I go back and forth with Mosaic IPAs usually my go-to. Will occasionally have a sour or stout, but stouts usually not til weather is cooler.

Locals Lone Pint Yellow Rose IPA (single malt, single hop) and Hops & Grain Pale Mosaic are almost always in my fridge.

Local baseball venue filled with a ton of beer vendors and food trucks. One price for 4 hours of unlimited sampling. HEAVEN.

The real Sue, King Sue, a double IPA, also from Toppling Goliath. Really impressed by those Iowa beers.

Hazy IPAs are the best!

I usually get a bit hazy after 5 IPAs

The setting and friends make the beer; that said, too few good microbreweries in the alps, definitely not saturated like many places in the states (I guess saturation isn't really a problem). Anyone want to start a microbrewery at a Swiss ski resort? I'm in...

True, and those are some beautiful locations, but I just can't drink lager. We had a hard time finding good beer in Switzerland.

I hear Stone Brewing's Berlin brewery is now distributing to Switzerland, so there ya' go.

Yes, hard to find, especially at mountain huts and on the slopes, but there are some good ones scattered around.

Yep, I've seen Stone in the grocery stores; pricey but hard to pass up! What I miss are the brew pubs and flights like pictured in @surfsnowgirl post.
