    Inspired by a Twitter post (and because I'm procrastinating on my work), I wanted to do something entertaining here.

    The goal: Make a 10 beer dream tap list. Because this is the northeast, I'm sticking to that. Specifically, I'm sticking to New England. Do what you want. Ten is a challenge. I'm also refusing to pick the same brewery twice.

    Allagash White
    Notch The Standard
    Maine Beer Co. Lunch
    Bissell Bros Substance
    Alchemist Heady Topper
    Fox Farm Stet Altbier
    Black Hog Granola Brown
    Tributary Kate the Great
    Jack's Abby Framinghammer
    Oxbow Newcastle Mornings

    (It's killing me to exclude a certain "ancestral" beer from a certain Green Mountain State brewery, but [shrugs])

    Human Robot - Il Cielo (Italian pilsner, gotta give some exposure to the newer/local guys)
    Hill Farmstead - Aaron (barleywine)
    Tired Hands - Double Watermelon Milkshake (for the lactose IPA lovers)
    Forest & Main - English Drawers (English mild, gotta have something on hand-pulled cask)
    Referend - Blue Book Vanilla (fruited lambic)
    Kane - Object Permanence (more barleywine)
    Troon - Gather Your Things (kettle sour)
    Freak Folk - Little Death (more sours)

    This is a nice late fall, early winter tap list. Glad to see another person who remembers St. Boltoph’s as fondly as I do. Trader Joe’s used to sell it for $5.50 a bomber.
