Make a salient, valid point about a controversial subject, people attack you for mentioning the controversial subject. O.o
Love or hate the now dead Gawker [gawker.com] but it's story should be a reminder never to piss off a billionaire.
@JeremyCherfas Totally with you. I make a point to drink local beer. Local spirits is usually a bit more challenging, but I did manage to do so in Utah last week :)

@JeremyCherfas Some will undoubted grow. 7 Seas, for instance, just opened up a huge brewery/taproom in Tacoma in order to keep up with demand.
Perhaps the most shocking was finding a beer from Oregon (Rogue Brewery) in a liquor store in Tel Aviv.

@JeremyCherfas 7 Seas is very reasonably priced in the taproom ($4 a pint). I believe Gig Harbor Distillery's prices are also reasonable, but I haven't personally checked.
@matigo the liquor laws (which vary by state) may also have something to do with it as well…
@matigo it's also somewhat of an upscale town. That said Tacoma (across the bridge) has quite a few also, including a new 7 Seas Taproom (they just expanded).
Actually it's ridiculous how many breweries there are in the Pacific Northwest.
Damn, I had no idea Gig Harbor had THREE local breweries. It's not that big a town. ?
