Team, I'm looking for some good local beers to try as I catch the end of the Midwest tour. Can someone recommend a few in these areas?

Detroit (Bells?)
St. Paul
Milwaukee - Did the Lakefront Brewery tour when I was there for PJ20
Denver - Tried Bull and Bush a few years ago...

Check out some brews by these guys

St. Paul - Surly, Summit
Milwaukee - New Glarus, Central Waters

St. Louis: ____________

Bay Area: ____________


I am particularly interested in local Bay Area beers. We'll be looking for some Russian River products but come to find out it's a 2 hour drive away so we can't visit the actual brewery. What's actually in Mountain View CA worth making an effort to visit?

in san fran no beer tour is complete without hitting The Toronado on haight st..Zeitgeist is great as well...Pliny is everywhere in san fran for $4-5 pint
and hit up The City Beer store and stock up

Not the first time I have this. It's on my list, thanks.

For the record every single beer I consumed in St. Louis sucked.

Really makes me appreciate Washington & Oregon beers.

Enjoyed my Park Burger along side some Racer 5 IPA. I've had some decent food and drink on this tour.

You know, you can get Pliny in Denver.
