Cory,
Flying Dog is the reigning Best East Coast Craft Brewery, as voted by the readers of thefullpint.com. They are out of Fredrick, MD now.

I’d like to nominate Flying Dog Brewery. Though there are numerous Colorado breweries whose beers are among my favorites, Flying Dog and Lefthand are the tops – in my opinion.
Carver Brewing Company in Durango, CO
Steamworks Brewing Company in Durango, CO
Three Rivers Brewing Company in Farmington, NM
are a couple good breweries not on your list from the Four Corners area.
Nice list… But don’t forget about Trinity Brewing!
