I don't live there, visit frequently, but how the hell is Lexington, KY not on the list? I've been to Grand Rapids, Asheville, Ann Arbor, Denver, Fort Collins, etc and the breweries in Lexington stack up with any of the ones listed. Country Boy and West Sixth have a lot of fantastic beers, the newer breweries (MirrorTwin, Ethereal, Blue Stallion, etc) are really good as well.

What you say is true now ( I don't have first-hand experience), but 20 years ago Denver/Boulder/Ft. Collins was already a hot-bed for microbrews. Before the US as a whole got on board the microbrew-train, the situation was different. There is a reason the Great American Beer Festival (GABF) is in Denver, and the home brewers association is based in Boulder.
