Now I really miss home

So, check this out. RateBeer.com just came out with their yearly rankings of the world's best beer and a San Diego Brewery took not only the number 1 slot, but three of the top ten. In the world. Take that, Germany! (For those of you not familar with the area, Solana Beach is also in SD.)
1. AleSmith Brewing Co. San Diego, CA USA
2. Three Floyds Brewing Co. Munster, IN USA
3. Stone Brewing Co. San Diego, CA USA
4. Westvleteren Abdij St. Sixtus Westvleteren Belgium
5. Hair of the Dog Brewing Co. Portland, OR USA
6. De Dolle Brouwers Diksmuide Belgium
7. Kalamazoo Brewing Co. Kalamazoo, MI USA
8. Pizza Port (Solana Beach) Solana Beach, CA USA
9. Dogfish Head Brewery Milton, DE USA
10. Fuller, Smith & Turner London UK

Oh, and I'd like to give some props to my second home coming in at #2 - go Indiana.

I thought that you were just homesick for *Bloomington*. So what is it Jor? You find out that we have the best beer in the world and all of the sudden you miss San diego too? What a sunshine patriot!

By the way, there is a Pizza Port in C-bad too. Go Carlsbad!

Yeah, Raj - this list must really be fixed if Cincy didn't make the cut.
