Tired Hands growler fill advice?

HopHands is their "always on tap" hoppy pale ale. It's a solid option. They turn over kegs pretty quickly, so it is hard to say what will be on tap when your sister is up there, but they keep up to date with releases on Facebook.

 

It's either going to be a hoppy beer, a saison or a hoppy saison. As far as "what's good" I would say most of it is but they make many different beers who knows what will be on tap that day. For instance they have 94 "current" beers listed here. http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/28383/?sort=styleA&view=beers

 

When is she going? Right now Pineal is on tap which is an exceptional IPA. This week they should be tapping Carpathian Kitten Loss, a double IPA that should be right in line with all of their past DIPAs. They do a CO2 purge on each growler fill now too.

 

You can go to the Tired Hands website and click on the On Tap tab. As of today they have two hoppy beers on tap:

“Pineal: IPA. 6.0% Brewed with oats and PA wildflower honey. Hopped with Mosaic, Amarillo, and Simcoe.

-Notes of sweet nectarine, pine needles, blueberry, and honeydew melon.

HopHands: Our exceedingly aromatic Pale Ale . 4.8% Brewed with oats and hopped with a blend of Amarillo, Simcoe, and Centennial.

-Notes of lush citrus, fresh cut grass, under-ripe kiwi, and slight pineapple.”

I have had HopHands several times and it is indeed a tasty APA.

Cheers!

 

If she happens to be visiting during the weekend of June 2nd, their One Year Anniversary Party is going down. I'm not sure if they will be filling growlers or not, but it's something worth considering perhaps.

 

Really hoping "Carpathian Kitten Loss" gets tapped before this weekend!

 

Pineal for sure. REALLY awesome brew.

 

I doubt you'll be disappointed.

 

Tell her to ask them to purge the growler so you have the best possible experience, especially if you won't be drinking it for a day or two.

 

I love this place, my wife's grandmother lives in Broomall, and for years I've hated going to visit with her. However, I realized Tired Hands is a 15 minute drive away, my wife can't understand why I am so eager to visit Bubbi all of a sudden.

 

pineal is fantastic!

 

Tell Jean this story, and I wouldn't be surprised if he were open to naming a beer after Bubbi.

 

I'm going to be in the area June 15th. Looking forward to checking it out.

 

Cant wait to get finished with the Army and move to our house. Its less than a mile from TH! Looking forward to their brews.

 

Pineal was awesome but kicked last night. I really liked Jittery Tiger too but I like coffee a lot and like how jean infuses his beers with it.

 

Had their WiggleWurm DIPA a few weeks ago and was blown away..... to me it was right up there with the highly hyped DIPAs we always hear so much about.

 

They updated their draft list on the website, And CPL DIPA is on there! Yes!

 

I just saw that - heading there for lunch tomorrow.
