USA Today Sports - Ultimate Craft Beer Bracket (And winner)

[sericcarlson]

Here is a bracket that shows a lot of the most popular craft brews in each region.  I am very partial and proud that my local small town brewery won!  Southern Tier Brewery in Lakewood, NY has some really great beer and they have expanded a great deal the past few years. They have a great variety of seasonal brews and I highly recommend this brewery if you get a chance to try it!

They also have a really nice bar and outdoor area if you ever happen to be in the Buffalo/Jamestown area.

Really surprised by some of those. 3Floyds losing to Great Lakes? Russian River and Ballast Point loosing to Sierra Nevada? Cigar City loosing to Terrapin? Ommegang loosing to Victory? All of those should have gone the other way and I don't even think it should be close. Also I would pick New Belgium over Lagunitas but I know a lot of people would disagree with me on that.

We will be doing this on the Huddle shortly with individual beers.

I agree with very little of that.
