    In PA, I couldn’t carry all the beer I bought, so the clerk was “required” to walk the rest out with me. I think they might have some whacky beer rules.

    Eli Fish Brewing here made a pistachio stout…haven’t tried it. I like pistachios. I like stouts…

    PA has some oddball beer laws. I believe it still has a limit of 192 ounces per visit in grocery stores and bottle shops, but not at the distributors. When the lady at Giant Eagle explained this law to me I just stared blankly for ten or fifteen seconds. I didn’t want to unload on a clerk, but I was having trouble formulating a reply that wasn’t expletive filled. I ended up saying, “OK.” :slight_smile:

    Worked all day outside pulling weeds and clearing some patches of land, nothing huge but ivy and crazy shit. It’s hot out. I harvested more cukes to make pickles. I have three quarts of dill chillin and going to make some spicy Thai and some mustard seed style.

    Last of these for now till I can find more. I grabbed a bunch at well under $4 a bottle. Just a great beer and the bottle is quite heavy too.

    Watching the all star game. First time in a bunch of years I’m not working when it’s on.


    Enjoy

    Peanut butter beers always smell SO good. I'm usually let down by the flavor.

    What are your thoughts about Eli Fish in general? I keep missing them and then forgetting when time allows. Maybe it’s worth a special trip. Thanks.

    I haven’t had anything from them yet! I keep meaning to get a handful of their BA things, yet have found every reason not to make the trip yet. Some day…
