Belt’s Beer Garden: I found some “Gems” here for you

I was able to find some beers from a state that doesn’t get too much beer love - Idaho (I don’t know how much you all know about Idaho, but I will say my headline makes much more sense if I tell you that Idaho is called the Gem State, get it now?).

I’ll start first with one of the states most celebrated beers: Sockeye’s Dagger Falls.

Sockeye comes from Boise, Idaho. As you guys know I’m one of the NIU writers here…so while you might think I’d hold a grudge against anything Boise after the NIU-Boise State bowl “game” last year I can assure you I’ll do my best to keep it unbiased.
