I love that place. Chris, the owner, is so nice. As is Hannah(I think that’s her name), the bartender. I did a review of my own. thegreatbeeradventure.blogspot.com P.S. I am the girl version of you.

Tue, 16 Feb 2010 16:01:43 +0000 http://www.blogaboutbeer.com/?p=1343#comment-71727 I've had the good luck to try a small portion of these, but most are not available in my area (Central Illinois). I was surprised to see Founder's Breakfast Stout at No.8. I just had this draft the other day and it was pretty fantastic. Hopslam is no surprise and thankfully I've still got three bottles left. I've got 2 years left to age my 2006 Bourbon County Stout the full 5 years, and it gets better EVERY year. Sadly, more than 50% of these aren't available in my area, but it makes me thankful for the ones I can get! Feel free to check out my beer blog too!

Quite a few aren't available in every state, seasonal or uber limited. You can almost forget about finding most of the beers on the "Most Wanted" list. I don't even think I've heard of half of them.

These lists always tend to skew to the large side of the beer world. Rate Beer's "THE BEST BEERS IN THE WORLD - OVERALL" is also just a list of really big beers (with the third best beer in the world being rated by a grand total of 22 people... which I just found odd). As for the "Alstrom Bros’ Top Beers" (which are beers that made them think in 2009), which is not listed on this page, I do not find it skewed towards big beers. Yes, there are big beers in the list, but I do not find it to be a dominating factor of the list. @Luke: Just curious on why you would never pay for a subscription to BA?

As long as we're talking about lists: http://www.ratebeer.com/RateBeerBest/table_2010.asp?title=Best+Beer+Retailers+2010&file=retailers_places_2010.csv # 1 in the world is in Boardman, Ohio. #2 is in Copenhagen. Not one in the top 50 is in New York, let alone NYC. The Boardman store is a dozen miles from me. The selection is incredible, but the big attraction, I think, is that you can buy singles and drink them there. Not sure if you want a sixer of that Faro? Open one and try it, and just buy a couple of bottles if you want to. I mean, the place had a dozen different meads that you could order by the glass. I never knew there were _any_ commercial meads.

Where in the US is the best place to buy beer? As in, has the most distributor connections so if it's brewed, you can buy it. Is it safe to assume NYC and Cali? This brings up a good question tho.
