The play-in round of 8 continues with two champion-caliber brewskies. You may know Tröegs for its dopplebock, Hop Back amber, or Dream Weaver white. A central-Pennsylvania brewery, Tröegs co-founder John Trogner was inspired by Philly's lively beer scene. 

Oskar Blues hails from Longmont, Colo., another beer-lover's mecca. Oskar Blues has a "can"-do attitude--all of its brews come in cans, from the well-loved Dale's pale ale to Mama's Little Yella Pils. Oskar Blues recently added a brewery in Brevard, NC, making this a true contest for all you Eastern partisans.
