Cleveland, OH.
Great Lakes Brewing Company.

This one blows the rest of their beers away, and the rest of their beers are quite good.

I'm in Rochester, actually, but Honey Brown isn't the best beer here. Rohrbach's Sctoch ale is a significant cut above. There have been some great offerings from CB's, too, including their Raspberry Wheat and Hop Harvest.

I grew up near Chico, CA, the home of Sierra Nevada. I was drinking it well before it became so popular. It was a little bit better back then, but I've been drinking it for so long and it is my favorite.

To whomever posted the Three Floyds brew:

How wide is their distribution?

I'd guess Alpha King isn't very hard to find if you're looking in the right spot in the midwest. Fairly common in Indiana/Michigan/Chicago area. I also saw bottles on the menu at a good beer bar in DC.

Those of you who mentioned Bell's, yes, it is great beer. If you haven't been to New Holland Brewery right down the road in Holland, MI, though, you have no idea what you're missing.
