local local local local. Start local and expand outward based on what you liked and recommendations from the local brewers

I was gonna come in here to recommend Sierra Nevada. They've done a great job of sticking to their roots and kept quality at the top of their agenda despite becoming so popular.

This is an impossible question to answer. Go to a local liquor store known for their beer selection, get some beer from local breweries (unless they notoriously suck dick) and maybe a few interesting 22ers, decide what you like and don't like, and go from there. Appreciate cheap beers for what they are and don't become a "beer snob" who pretends that he's above drinking Miller Lite at dollar beer night just because he has a $15 six pack of double IPA at home. Nobody likes those people.

Every mountain town has a brewery. Durango has three, Pagosa has two, Silerton has one, Ouray has one. Every zip code s required by law to have its own brewery
