Washington is falling far behind in the microbrew game.

Last summer I ran into more varieties of microbrew out in Backwater Wyoming & Montana than I see in most stores around here. Maybe it's because all the locals here all sold out to AB.

The real Mecca of microbrew we hit was in Colorado. We filled our coolers & cupboards with 10 different 6-packs from all different breweries I'd never even heard of before we moved on into the beerlover's hell of Utah.
