OK, so Earendil inspired me with his ArrogantBastard reference. Any craft beer fans out there? What is your favorite? How about brewers? Anyone make the stuff?
I've been drinking craft beer and converting everyone around me for years now. I've also done some brewing, first from extract, and then all grain. Never quite mastered all grain and don't brew very much at all anymore. Very much considered a "beer snob" in my neighborhood. Quite often turn down yellow fizzy beers. Have been known to water my plants with them though.
Absolute favorite is Stone ArrogantBastard. I'll drink about any craft brew (and especially love traveling and drinking local stuff). We used to get some great beers from [Capital Brewing|http://www.capital-brewery.com/ourbeers/index.html] out of Middleton, WI. They stopped carrying it though. They have a great brewer and lineup of beers. Got to go to a talk/tasting one time which was excellent. Brooklyn Brewery does some good stuff.
In Ohio, we have this place Winking Lizard that has by far the best beer selection and does an annual [World Beer Tour|http://www.winkinglizard.com/data/content/beer_tour.asp] . I completed it in '05 (100 beers) and got the jacket. Haven't had time since to do one.
Cheers!
