Forest & Main Brewing Co. (2021)

Appears F&M got their hands on the ESB collab/perhaps putting the engines to use



+ rolling the dice on the next House Lager iteration, considering the fairly new hop variety... last rendition with Saaz and the given counterpart was noteworthy

 

F&M releasing some 9th Anniversary beers:

Includes Kinch, one of their original beers. Looks like that was the first beer I reviewed from them back in 2012.

Glad to see they are expanding, but I'll miss the old house! Such a great place to grab a pint and a bite to eat.

 

Bummer they aren't continuing with food. I hope they continue with cask ale.

 

Ugh, I was looking forward to having a pint at that cozy bar in their house after the pandemic. Such a unique plac.

 

Endicott expressed a need to get back to the beer engine. So - while the house is a loss - Cask ale may actually see an uptake in the new Pub space

 

Oof, I'm torn. I like F&M's beer output, but I can't lie... it may be a bit shallow but that location was part of the charm. I just planned four trips up to Ambler this summer to pick up a subscription and had been looking forward to tying those trips to the old F&M house... will be cool checking out the new place, though!

 

Not mad, just a little sad. That house was one of the coolest places to drink a beer. Definitely won't stop me from wanting to go to Ambler, but.... a tinge of selfish regret meets this news.

 

On the plus side, hopefully this means that F&M is doing fairly well? I know some breweries did great business during the pandemic, and it seems like they may have been one of them... hopefully this signals a pretty strong business going forward, and plenty more beer.

 

They've disassembled the bar to move it to the new location

Does Forest and Main distribute their bottles? I'm going to be in the Tired Hands area and I'd love to pick up some bottles from some shops. Thanks.

 

Very rarely, I only know of one shop. Do you mean Tired Hands Ferm? If so, I can’t help. If you mean St. Oner’s, I can point you in the right direction of a place that has bottles and cans.

 

I mean the Fermentaria

 

Bryn Mawr Beverage got some bottles in about a week ago (also got some bottles from Fermentery Form recently). I’m not sure if they still have them. You could call ahead and check. I think they take phone orders as well.

 

I'm not sure about bottles, but Beer Yard in Wayne has their cans, and if any shop in the area is going to have their bottles, it would be them.

 

Got some bottles at Bryn Mawr Beverage. Very pleasantly surprised what they had in stock.

 

Nice. Able to grab Whelm by any chance? Had that one last weekend and it was incredible.

 

Yes, I was thrilled that they still had it.

 

F&M utilizing a stratagem, but trust them to handle it more snugly than most: LUKR Saison -
