Especially since it would fit into a few of those categories, great beer, food and setting for a brewpub. Though, I would say they don't have great distribution and this may be the case for a lot of quality beers that aren't making the list. Dav,

I have traveled the country tasting beers of all kinds and you will not find better beer than in Bellingham. I am insulted.

They have all-organic brews, good food that is mostly (all?) organic, kid-friendly restaurant area, ok service. Nice building.

People go there for the German food. It's good food but not exceptional, though you get alot. The truly shocking thing is they've only got about 7 or 8 German beers on Draught and that's it!!! The beers are very good, but not unique and the depth is underwhelming, but then what should you expect from just a neighborhood spot that's tired but been around for years. Ranking Resi's in the top 5000 Beer restaurants would be much more accurate, not top 50 by any measure. The Beirstube in Seattle has a much deeper and considerably more interesting list of German offerings. Rankng Resi's as the better Beirstube Says an awful lot about the Knuckelheaded No Nothings that built this listing!!!!!!!

Just joking, I don't even know you. I think it's just an American thing. We like to take things and just make them bigger, bolder, louder, crazier, more over the top, more explosive, etc until you need a seat belt to drink some of these brews. Trav – You are a weenie.

An example is Deschutes The Abyss, I had this on tap and maybe I am a weenie but I struggled to finish the glass... the taste was too overpowering.
