Hey EVOSTi,
Half your luck, would love to go to the US for another trip. I was there about 2 years ago now. Drank plenty of good beers, one stand out place that I went to was Rogue in San Fran, www.rogue.com, well worth a look. Don't judge the US beers on Millers or Bud, plenty of good Brew Restaurants to visit in all towns on your travels.

In San Fran
go to Anchor and do the tour (book before you leave Oz)
go to the 21st Amendment brewpub
go to the Toronado bar
Thirsty Bear, and Gordon Bierch are also good

if you have a car and can get out of the city then get up the Sonoma Valley and go to Bear Republic, Russian River, Lagunitas.

Have a great trip.

Agreed - you'll only bump into about 600 odd micro's on that side of the country. The yanks only make infected beer. Especially guys like Full Sail in Oregon, 12 million litres a year as a regional brewer and all crap... the Customs guys will let your slab sail thru :icon_drool2:

...not to mention the World Brew Expo that you won't be allowed into anyway...
