You guys know your beer.

As part of our search for America's Next Top Beer, we called out for your favorite local craft brews, and you more than obliged. From the Redlands to the Freedom Trail, Asylum readers left plenty of comments highlighting dozens of local favorites that deserve to go nationwide. In fact, a lot of you showed the same taste in craft beers as the critics, columnists and brew masters on our panel of experts, as you'll see when we unveil our field of finalists next week.

We took your suggestions and put together a "12-pack" of your craft beer favorites. Now we need you to pick the Asylum Readers' Choice that will join our 11 other finalists in the race for America's Next Top Beer. Is it Connecticut's Munich-Style Golden Lager, which reader jutsy1011 called "the best small-time local brew I've ever had"? Or maybe Maryland's Double Dog Double Pale Ale, which Paul dubs an "epic brew... People with weak constitutions don't apply." Or maybe you agree with FRED who told us he tried Wisconsin's Spotted Cow more than a decade ago and has been hooked ever since.

Read on to see all of the Readers' Choice nominees and cast your vote for your favorite of the bunch.
