If you are ever in Cleveland you must go to the Great Lakes Brewery. It is possibly the best beer in America. Try the Dortmunder Gold. If you are lucky enough to be there in the winter the Christmas Ale is the best beer I have ever had.

I still like the Redhook ESB and the Winterhook. My bro got me hooked on Widmer, which probably makes the best Hef, EVER! I like Rogue too, especially their Dead Guy Ale. What do you think is the best WA beer?

1) Westmalle 2) Orval 3) Chimay [/ QUOTE ] Orval was going to be on my list, perhaps fourth. It probably is better than Duvel I just drink the other more. What is Westmalle like? |

Best WA beer? Man, that is very hard to decide. I really really like Mac and Jack's Amber. I think it's the best, but it's a personal preference thing. Dick's Danger Ale, out of Centralia (or is it Chehalis?) is also one of my favorites.
Hale's Ale IPA is also a good one. Hale's has a LOT of good beers now that I think about it. I can't pick just one. On the flip side, anything from The Ram restaurants and breweries is highly overrated. |

They do Guiness extra cold now, never been a big fan of the black stuff but the odd pint of extra cold is palatable.
After this discussion was buying my tea at the supermarket, there in the fridge a big bottle of Leffe Blonde which will be being consumed later. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] |

You'll probably have to come pretty far south, you can find it on tap here in Oly, and in the bottles in some of the stores, but I don't know that I've seen it even as far north as Tacoma. Top Foods down here sells a Dick's variety 12-pack, which had 12 different varieties in it. Some hits, some misses, but overall it was fun to try.
Agreed on Rock Bottom. |

Sierra Nevada is my everyday beer, but the above 3 are very very solid.

Ok: This one does not travel well, so you must go to the source.
Cave Creek Chili Beer. This is from Cave Creek, Arizona, which is about 35 min. N. of Phoenix. The beer is bottled with a chili inside. If you get a nice, fresh, chili beer you get some "heat" which mixes well with the cool beer. On a 110 degree day, it is a great experience to have a bowl of chips and salsa, and a cold chili beer. (This is something to TRY, I doubt it will become part of your regular lineup). |
