8 Best Beer Towns

[Jalapeñomel]

So delicious. 


Beer Towns!

[candreco]

I'm surprised Milwaukee didn't make the list.

[EmilieMadison]

I'm disappointed that Mpls/St Paul wasnt on the list. We have a LOT of beer going on. I mean, we have Surly! Plus at least 15 more great breweries, not including the ones out of the city. 

[melodramatic26]

Totally agree about San Fran. I drank so much beer in the 9 months dh lived there. so much beer.

[annyong]

Heck yeah, PDX! But that was no surprise considering we have the most breweries of any city. So.much.beer.

I think Denver should have been number 1.

I clicked the link because I was *sure* MKE would be on there. It's a great beer town!

this is so true.  we went there last fall and were ecstatic that our hotel was walking distance to the downtown for this very reason.

If I could handle cold weather, I would move to Boston. They always seem to make these cool lists and I loved that city when I went there for my cousin's wedding.

We are taking a trip to San Diego in a few weeks. Looks like we will be doing a beer tour around there.

Such a great town! If we hadn't grown so fond of our little artsy suburb, I would have dragged H up to Asheville by now

Close, but I'm surprised Raleigh wasn't on the list.

I dare say we're getting there. Who doesn't love some Big Boss?

I'm still in my honeymoon phase with White Street Brewing right down the road from me

Oh I saw them at the brewagloo a few weekends ago, but I didn't get to try them. What beers are good? I do love me some big boss. Maybe we should meet up and go to the big boss tasting one Saturday! Aviator is pretty good too.

I've never been to Aviator, I need to try them!

White Street has been putting out some new seasonals that I haven't tried, but I love love love their Scottish Ale

I'm tied up Saturday, but we need to make a brew date!

[mbcdefg]

Thanks for posting this! We've been looking for some beer stops along our cross-countryish route this summer, and Ashville might be along the way.

I'm glad they mentioned Monk's in Philadelphia ... it's a really good bar and restaurant.

I'm surprised they didn't mention NYC at all.

I live outside Boston now but when I was fresh out of college and living on Beacon Hill it was one of the coolest most fun times of my life.  I love that we live close enough to take the kids in all the time. It is a great city

Cool!  Nice town. We are actually south of Boston about 30 miles.  If you come visit your family in Lexington we will have to gtg wtih some of the other boston gbcners

I'm really disappointed Grand Rapids, MI didn't make it.

[vaportrail]

Portlanddddddddddddddddd! H and I have tried over a 100 different beers in the last year.

[mrsukyankee]

This might be the one thing that could draw my DH to the US to live...London is growing in terms of breweries and craft beer and we love it, but nothing like what's happening in the US.

[Muddled]

I love beer.

That's all.
