Damn, you took mine. Is this available outside of Wisconsin?

You guys should really look for New Glarus Raspberry Tart or Belgian Red. They come in 750 ml Bombers (look like wine bottles) and taste just like alcoholic Fruit by the Foots. Amazing.

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'm from Albany, NY and Magic Hat #9 (on tap only) is my favorite from the region.

I live in CT. I don't consider NE beers such as Harpoon, Allagash, Magic Hat, Long Trail, etc. to be "local." Basically, only CT breweries qualify for me. There are few of those, and I don't think any that are available on a national scale. However, of the bottled variety I think Troutbrook's Liberator Doppelbock is the best.

I'm very jealous.

And I agree with the poster who mentioned how wonderful it is having Harpoon IPA on tap almost everywhere in New England.

Lowell Brewery Exchange has some great beers as well, especially their oatmeal stout.
