This summer I did a little road trip of breweries on the north coast and these were my findings.
I'm a fan of darker beers with Moylan's Kiltlifter, Rogue's Shakespeare Stout, and Lost Coast's Downtown Brown coming in on top.
On the lighter side Blue Moon is a winner and for those who like it I'd also recommend Lost Coast's Great White. On the more "exotic" and more feminine side Lost Coast also makes a pretty good Tangerine Ale.

I find myself liking a lot of the Japanese beer (except Asahi), but recently I've come across a new Japanese beer that I like. It's Orion, and it's from Okinawa. To me, it taste like a light beer with a full flavour kick at the end. TRY IT!

After watching commercials on youtube about Orion...I wanna try this one too.

Yeah it's like a meal in and of itself. Went downtown (SJ) last night and kicked it at O'Flarity's. Had a couple pints of the meal-in-a-glass and a Irish carbomb, YUM.

Update on Boulder Creek Brewery--my apologies if this has already been covered--brewing kettle blew up--great brewmaster left--beers alre brewed elsewhere--they are not sure if they will resume brewing--great and ever-changing selection of fine brews no longer the case.

wherever he works now, he has a commute...since he lives in BC, unless he moved.
He reminded me of one of those old timey celtic athletes...like the ones that pick up telephone poles and toss them etc.
