I agree; a lot of Dogfish Head beers are good tho' they tend to be on the expensive side and sometimes plain weird like, (what was it?) King Midas Beer! San Francisco Anchor Steam Beer is good too if expensive around here.

Hi James, I'm not a Bud lite person, so I'm always looking for local/regional brews. Here in the Midwest, we have the New Glarus Brewing Co. (only available in Wisconsin). Whenever we cross the border into Wisconsin, we'll pick up some New Glarus Uff-da (dark), Spotted Cow (Ale), and a few other seasonal brews. If no other good beers are available, I'll have a properly poured Guinness.

I've appreciated some of those and I like Guinness too. I'm perhaps a heretic there since I prefer bottled Guinness Export to draft Guinness :-)

• Anchor Steam Beer! My favorite -- of course I live in the San Francisco Bay area. It is about or per six-pack.

Fritz Maytag bought an old pre-prohibition brewery in SF and made it into what we have today.

Fritz, if I counted correctly, is the fourth generation of the well-known Amana, Iowa Maytag family. Maytag I was the washing-machine maven. Maytag II followed his father in the business.

Maytag III makes cheese -- and it's damn good. Maytag blue is one of my favorite cheeses.

And Fritz is Maytag IV.

I was not particularly impressed by their Summer Wheat beer. But their standard is my standard.
