* Grinders (KCMO) - the quintessential Crossroads establishment, in my opinion. great beer selection, eclectic crowd, relaxed atmosphere. the only downside is the recent increase in beer prices, but whatever.

* Ginger Man (Austin) - i loved this place so much i went five times during a 10-day trip to Austin. this is the only place i've ever had Stone, Dogfish Head, St. Arnold's, and many others i cannot remember, on tap. the interior of the bar isn't special, but the beer garden outside is a great place to hang out on warm texas evenings. the bartenders (though not nec. the servers) were beer geeks and loved talking beer, which was new to me.

* RagTag CinemaCafe (Columbia MO) - not a beer bar but a small indie movie house in downtown columbia. the "bar" area is also the lobby, ticket booth, snack stand, kitchen, etc. and it is approximately the size of my childhood bedroom. they have three taps, usually a boulevard, a schlafly, and a rotating selection. bottles include belgians in large bottles, hebrew, bell's, etc. it's great to watch an art film on a thrift store couch whilst sipping a pint of good beer.

* Flat Branch Pub & Brewing (Columbia MO) - my first real experience with a brewpub, this place became a mainstay for my friends and i during my seven (!) years in columbia. i have probably been to Flat Branch 400 times. the food is great, the atmosphere is what you'd expect at a large, lofty brewpub in a college town, and some of the beers are delicious. i love their green chili ale, katy trail pale ale and baltic porter.

* Addison's (Columbia MO) - downtown restaurant with a good beer selection. on tap: multiple Boulevards, Schlafly seasonals, Fat Tire, NB seasonal, Abita Turbodog, etc..it makes my list because it was the locus for Sunday Night Drinking Club, where a few law school dudes would get together from 10pm-midnight on sundays to partake in $2 pints and merriment.

word.

* Mountain Sun (Boulder, CO) - This is my favorite brewpub. The beer selection is always changing and they always include something for hopheads and strong beer lovers. Two of their beers are always offered on both CO2 and nitrogen. The servers wait tables by committee, even if you're just dining. Myriad food options for vegetarians. This is what happens when hippies learn how to brew.

* Grinders (KCMO) - it's already been said
