    Locals know all about this place. Non-locals should as well. Visited last night, and I was well impressed.

    I sampled most of their offerings on tap, and enjoyed everything. I particularly liked the WeedEater (DIPA) and Good Good Things (Sour IPA).

    Also - order the candied bacon. Why? Because...IT'S CANDIED BACON! What more do you need to know?

    Bit of a drive for me, but I will be back.

    Went there last night for the first time as well. The beer selection was amazing. My two favorites of the night were the Hop Hands Pale Ale and the Weedeater DIPA, both of which I took home in those new 1L growlers plus some glassware. The food was really good as well and that Candied Bacon was just ridiculously good. The staff was extremely friendly and even got a chance to speak with Jean who was a great guy to talk to. Needless to say I will be returning a few more times in the next few weeks and will certainly be sending some growlers back to myself when I have to return California.

    I wasn't able to stop in over Thanksgiving when I was up that way visiting family, but when we head back up in January for a long weekend I am definitely stopping in for a visit. Looking forward to it to say the least.

    Ardsmore, PA is where Tried Hadns is. If you want an excellent brew, though, you should visit Tired Hands in Ardmore, PA

    Does anyone know if they will fill up outside growlers or just Tired Hands growlers??

    Only if they are blank or don't have another brewery's logo on them.

    They will fill non-brewery growlers. But just be advised that some places have trouble with the WF growlers since the opening is very small if you are trying to fill the 32 ounce as opposed to the 64 ounce.
