    Heading to Burlington today. Any must-sees? Heard good things about Foam, worth checking out?

    Buddies went to foam last month and said it was the best brewery they ever went to.

    Exactly what I would have said. In that order too probably.

    Agree w lineup. If you go to zero gravity /AF -- try the cask IPA - they usually have a citra or other NEIPA kinda inspired cask on tap and it is amazing.

    I'm with a group of non beer nuts, so they want us to go to magic hat first. Is Foam friendly for non beer freaks or does it have more of an Other Half (barebones only beer no area to hang) kinda vibe?

    Foam has tables and a bar, plus charcuterie to munch on. I believe they might also have some local cider on tap? Either way, I would think it's a place that every could enjoy hanging at

    Foam was great! Their tap list was a bit limited as they had sold out of the two Double/Imperial IPAs :wink:. But had the joy division (great) and one of the house of fermentology sours, which was funky but good. Thanks for the rec!

    (Magic Hat was awful)

    Fiddlehead has second fiddle cans, Frost has lush and plush bottles in local shops. Farmhouse probably has best tap list and non beer geeks will enjoy the food.

    Ha, I thought the same thing. And then who will be the next Foam in two years!?

    Does Foam sell cans/bottles or are they strictly taps for now?

    Tap and growler fills. They periodically have releases of house of fermentation sours in bottles, usually with low limits and they move quickly
