If your in the Northeast there are several favorites to look for.

Yards brewery in Manyunk, PA. They make great, hoppy English style ales. The bottled stuff hasn't impressed anywhere near as well as the cast conditioned stuff. Lots of great, small bars in the Philly area have it on tap.

Flying Fish Brewery in Cherry Hill, NJ. More nice English ales and happy hoppy brews. Flying Fish is pretty good in the bottle, too.

Stoudt's Brewery (somewhere several hours to the west of Philly) is just a great small brewery. I've only had their offerings in bottles and it NEVER fails to impress. Their brewer is a very talented soul. One of these days I hope to make a trip to their brewery to sample their offerings on tap.

Oh yeah, the Middle Ages Brewing Company in Syracuse (sp?) NY. I sampled two of their offerings in a brewfest in Upstate NY serveral years ago and was absolutely blown away. One was the creamiest ESB that has ever crossed my lips. Lordy, lordy, lordy it was fabulous! Needless to say they were out of samples long before the rest of the exhibitors.

I'm still looking for some place in PA or NJ that stocks the Middle Ages stuff. It was REALLY lovely.
