The only place that cheap, watery beer is acceptable:

Although it wasn't cheap.

I really enjoyed the offerings at Crazy Mountain Brewing in Edwards. Lots of great beers and very dog friendly.

I also stopped at Gore Range Brewing. Good beer, but too expensive.

I happened to be in the Cincinatti area the other day.....

I found good local beer.

I stuck with IPA's and MadTree Psychopathy, West 6th and Rhinegeist Truth were all quite good. Now, Rhinegeist has an Imperial IPA by the name of Saber Tooth Tiger.....that was amazing.

Tried them at Tipsy's last weekend for a tasting. Too hoppy for my tastes.

I shared a bomber of Paradox's 2nd Anniversery beer (Deux Ans) and that was a really tasty beverage.

I also recently tried "Hey! Pumpkin" from Denver Brewing Company, this is easily and above average pumpkin beer with some sweetness, medium body, and a smooth mouthfeel.

Side note: I picked up Untappd nearly 2 years ago and have "logged' 444 unique beers. It's kind of a mashup of craft beer snobbery and facebook. Without the Donald Trump videos. I really enjoy it.

We went to Oregon back in June and I was just thinking again about some of the amazing beer we had when I saw this thread. Scarlet was amazing. Wish I could get it here.

Yeah, love that too. I'm having a thing for imperial reds lately. Scarlet was even better than G'Knight.
