    Feather Fallls Brewery, in Oroville, California. Great selection of beer, amazing entertainment venue, and (duh) gambling!

    I was at Sam Adams a few days ago. It was cool. There isn't much to see, but it was neat to see one of the pioneer American brewers up close.

    Great Lakes last week. Massive brewery, nice brewpub and a fun tour. Guide knew her stuff.

    Kane this morning for a growler fill and a quick walk admiring the barrels they have hanging around the warehouse.

    I've sadly never been to a brewery. But I enjoy hearing you all tell stories of your experiences.

    My girlfriend and I stopped by Kane this morning also. We were deciding on how to get one of those barrels in the car without being seen.

    We had also visited Troegs on Wednesday. All in all a good week

    I'm heading down to Florida tomorrow to try to get my house there sold and fully expect to visit Due South and Funky Buddha. And Cigar City if I have a spare few hours on the way back. But I've been to all those before.

    Foothills for me as well. More recently, a new brewery near Smith Mountain Lake called Sunken City. Small, but worth a stop if you're in the area.

    Went to Yards in Philly on Friday. Great place to grab lunch and have some fresh beer. We were drinking their seasonally released DIPA which to them the call "Epic Ale", Cape of Good Hope. So delicious and so fresh. It was kegged the day before. It was a solid afternoon.
