Are Portland and Denver still the microbrew capitals?

Not to turn this into a pissing contest, but if you had done a quick google search on VT breweries as I’m sure you did for Oregon breweries, you’d find very quickly that there are 21 breweries that are members of the VT brewers Association, which puts VT at one brewery per 29,607 citizens. bouv was listing breweries in and immediately near Burlington, VT, which is the population center of the state.

At any rate, on the East coast, you can’t do much better than Burlington, and if you’re willing to drive an hour and a half, almost every brewery in the state is accessible from here. I’ve also heard good things about Portland, ME, though I’ve never been.

If anyone does come to VT for beer, getting tickets to the VT Brewers Festival in July is highly recommended. Scads of VT and other regional brewers.

Thanks - Ignorance successfully fought, and my appreciation. Should you ever be in the Columbia River Gorge, I’ll buy you a beer.
