    Only if they happen to make an appearance at an event or farmers' market. Doubtful if they'd go outside NY. They only bottle occasionally, & almost all for such things. Sometimes a few things at the brewery. It's 95+% brewery-only. The tap room in Owego is just a few mi north of PA . Depends on where you are, if it's worthwhile to go . Never had anything from them that wasn't at least "good", & some great. Crazy Daisy tripel is a must-try.
    Btw, the tap room moved recently, & it hasn't been updated on any map, except their Facebook page . Here's the new address, 17 Lake St, Owego

    Wubbalubbadubbdubbel, Canton Brew Works: While Rick and Morty references were everywhere a while ago (if I hear someone randomly yelling "I'm Pickle Riiiiiiick" again....) this one was released just last year. Fun to say and - from what the brewer at CBWs tent at the Detroit Fall Beer Fest told me - a challenge to pronounce for folks later in the day.

    Final Absolution, Dragonmead : Awesome name, awesome tripel.

    Malty McFly, Farmington Brewing Company: a fine red ale and a bit of a humblebrag. I didn't brew it, but I did get to name it.

    That one has always seemed to me that the brewer used a random selection from the dictionary to pick two adjectives and a noun to put a name on that beer. I see no other relational logic except for the 'nuclear' relating to the abv.

    I always thought DC Brau "On the Wings of Armageddon" was a cool name. Solid DIPA, too!

    I love beer names that are (unintentionally)funny/cheesy without having pop culture references in them. my favorites would include:
    Büchenbacher Beck'n Bockbier (best alliteration ever)
    Hösl Süffikus
    Bayerischer Bahnhof Goseator

    I personally find the trend of wannabe clever, reference ridden beer names somewhat annoying.:wink: And in general, I am very happy with simple names such as "Huppendorfer Vollbier".
    BTw, in the german wine world, there is also this annoying trend of wine names that want to be clever or cool, such as Ursprung,der letzte Sommer war sehr groß, racists don't drink sauvinong blanc... honestly, I very much prefer traditional wine classification names that already indicate the character of the wine, such as Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett feinherb. I guess the some goes for me and beer..

    The version of the DKML that I saw had an "L" in Klicker. Say it fast and you'll understand. :grin:
