I did a quick poll on Twitter asking what brewery or brand changed beer for the rest of their life. I got 16 responses. The most popular response was Unibroue! Unibroue, in fact, changed my beer tastes as well. Other breweries included in the poll were: Coors Light, Big Rock,Green Flash, McAuslan, Firestone Walker, Half Pints, Summit, Westmalle, Rickard's and Abita/Purple Haze/Turbo Dog.Lastly, I'm working on a list of Canadian Breweries, if I'm missing any breweries, let me know!
