    anyone happen to know if any notable beer is sold for The Jam on Walnut? Or should I expect I.C. Light Mangorita and the like?

    My food truck game is weak. I work downtown where they are shut out because of silly laws, and every single time I go to a brewery that has one I spend too much time drinking and they run out of food.

    I love food trucks and I am lucky enough to live so close to BG that I can stop and get something even if I don't stop at the brewery. Gyros n that have amazing gyros

    In my opinion Hopslam was very good for a week, but was terrible there after due to the date. This didn't land until 4-5 weeks after it was bottled.

    morgantown brewing may actually be worse than spoonwood. Lots of styles but none had any flavor. The chestnut brew works halleck pale ale was pretty decent though. Hope none of you are unfortunate enough to find yourself in Morgantown.

    I love Morgantown. The breweries just aren't very good at all. Chestnut Brew Works and Mountain State are both significantly better than Morgantown Brewing though.

    I usually try to stay out of Morgantown and West Virginia in general. I've been insisting for years we need a functioning border and just not let anyone from that direction come across.

    that was not at all what I was expecting. Miller light was the only beer option. It was basically a flustercup of college frat bro's and heavily intoxicated sorority girls. you live and learn. : \

    Yeah I'd need someone to explain to me how in the world that's supposed to be a justifiable price. Good for them, people are clearly willing to pay it, but I don't get why... at all.
