Travel and Leisure rated San Francisco number nine in its America’s Best Beer Cities readers poll.

Check them out in the slideshow below. Got a favorite beer we missed? Leave it in the comments section.

Elizabeth Street Brewery might not be the easiest place to get to (the "brewery" is in the owner's Noe Valley garage), but Associate Editor Robin Wilkey makes the trek for a glass of Daddy's Chocolate Milk.

Blog Editor Clare Richardson keeps it classic with Anchor Steam. The SF beer is almost double the price in her New York neighborhood, but Richardson just laughs in the face of inflation and orders another. (credit:Anchor Steam)
