50 Best Beers in America

Zymergy magazine recently posted the 50 best beer in America as voted by its readers.

There are so many of our favorite beers on this list that it's really hard to be upset at the order. I think if we had to make a few changes, it would be to move Sierra Nevada Pale Ale out of the top 10 and add Union Jack. Celebration and Torpedo are both solid top choices, but personally, I would love to see some other styles represented.

What do you think of the list?
