    deciccos has half acre, not sure of which. but I was in chicago when galactic double daisy cutter dropped and forgot. they had a stack of cases when I was back and easily grabbed some. their new beer dept area I believe just finished too in brewster.

    I don't think there's much chance in visiting these breweries. She pretty much had the weekend mapped out, and will be stopping by DeCicco's OTW home. Thanks

    I had some Daisy Cutter this past week (my 1st H.A. brew), and it was excellent. I have plenty of beer on the list, no harm in adding 1 more!

    Thanks for the info!!

    I'd have her skip nummy nummy SB has had some canning line issues with some oxidized batches seeing distro. Not sure if you'll see those specific relic beers next month, they're doing pretty small batches and changing up what they're canning/distroing pretty often. They'll definitely have some DIPAs/IPAs out in distro, but the one I'd keep an eye out for would be their baltic porter (spectral beast) pretty sure they're planning on a november release.

    Talked to Mark yesterday. The are doing a barrel aged Spectral this year. Not sure if it will be canned or brewery only with limited kegs for distro.

    She is going there today. Nummy Nummy can be had on our trip north next year. I have plenty on my list, and not a lot of time to drink them (the only downside to IPA's). Thanks!

    My wife came home with Pipeworks, Lawsons, Industrial Arts, Half Acre and Kent Falls (a hike she went on ended right near KF Brewery).

    Thanks to everyone for their suggestions and insight!

    If it was Saturday, above and beyond by your wife as Kent Falls was hopping with a long line (for them ... I'm not talking Treehouse, NEBCO can release size)! First time that I'd been since they had the tasting room, way more crowded than all of my previous visits. Good for them!

    It was Saturday, early in the afternoon. Not very busy yet. She picked me up a 4 pack of Sweatpants.
    They loved the colors, the whole area was great, but also said the bees and gnats were a real PITA.

    Agreed, the bugs were nasty up at Kent Falls State Park after I stopped at the brewery!

    Maybe it's the warm weather we've been having, but the bees insanely active this fall.

    Lots of bees. Fall colors not representing however, bad season. I digress. Good haul you got yourself.

    YES. I was hoping that all that whiskey would lead him to barrel aging something :O

    Talked to Steph today. It will be taproom only. Not sure about growlers. Maybe crowlers and draft only. More than likely, bourbon.
