Message b3shine P beers 12179 º places 372 º 11:08 Wed 11/12/2014 I’m sitting in Burlington, VT waiting for our ride to pick us up and enjoying a can of fresh Heady Toppper, and it got me thinking: what are the best beers you’ve seen available at an airport, and what airport was it?
Message digita7693 beers 1 º places 7 º 11:11 Wed 11/12/2014 Being able to get growler fills from laurelwood at pdx past security check is pretty awesome! I thoroughly enjoyed my flight from pdx to Florida for Xmas.:)

Message brokensail P admin beers 21480 º places 1691 º 11:47 Wed 11/12/2014 If you’re just at a typical airport bar: Sam Adams Boston Lager (or seasonal). If it’s at an airport that has brewpubs/beer bars like PDX, SEA, DEN, etc. then it’s usually best to go with one of those. Like the gentleman above me, I liked the Laurelwood location at PDX.

Message RABinCO P beers 1511 º places 103 º 11:49 Wed 11/12/2014 Sam Adams seasonal if it’s actually in season. Was @ the airport this weekend and they still had Oktoberfest on. A wise man reminded me: "Winter lager or scroll past." Had a super fresh Sweetwater 420 @ Atlanta airport though.

Message CheersMate beers 1348 º places 189 º 12:23 Wed 11/12/2014 Different Surly variants at MSP, in cans. However, they were close to $5 each.
Message Frank beers 4561 º places 92 º 12:26 Wed 11/12/2014 If you drink any beer other than Sam Adams in an airport, it will upset the balance of the universe, which cause the children to suffer. Do you not care about the children?

Message 3fourths P beers 9492 º places 1576 º 12:26 Wed 11/12/2014 MUC has their own brewery, which is pretty neat, but no idea about quality http://www.ratebeer.com/brewers/airbrau/860/

Do you not care about the children? This. Sam Adams or a Sam Adams seasonal is really the only sensible option.
Message GT P beers 10001 º places 672 º 12:33 Wed 11/12/2014 SLC has a Squatters "Brewpub" and I saw a guy tank two 750mL of Outer Darkness.
