Hagerstown, MD

@PSU_Mike find anything worthy of purchasing at Wooden Keg??

 

Union Snowpants cans should be hitting now @JNForsyth

 

Yep, pretty excited about cans this time, been avoiding those bottles

 

Hagerstown:
Stores to buy - Wooden Keg - awesome selection and awesome beer guys to help you out. Prices are kinda erratic, some cheaper than other places and some marked up quite high.
Always Ron's is secretly rated the #1 craft beer bar in the state of Maryland. Ccheck it out on BA I swear last I checked it was ranked #1, beers are cheap and he keeps a world class taplist there (around 20 on tap). Food is pretty good pub food also.
Antietam Brewery (Benny's) does make a few good beers and a some average ones. Want to get the real Hagerstown culture? That is the place to go.

That's pretty much Hagerstown.

 

Isn't Always Rons now called the Hurricane Taphouse? Also check out the broad axe for some great food and a nice tap list. Of course The Wooden Keg is the place to go and I've also had some luck at Gslaxy Liquors.

 

Spent quite a bit there. Bullshitted with the guy working there for nearly an hour. Got some TIPA, Even More Jesus, some weird Italian blueberry sour stout, and a DuClaw Retribution. Most of the hoppier beers I nearly bought were well past prime. That was my only gripe.

 

Just out of curiosity was the Retribution one of the bombers from last year or 12oz bottles from this year? Because if it was the 12oz, lol "not seeing distribution"...

 

Definitely bomber. Pretty sure it was a 15 but I could be wrong. I'll double check tonight.

 

So I heard rumors last night that the reason Wooden Keg is clearing all that old shit out is that they are closing? Anyone hear anything about this?

 

The guy working there seemed to think that the owner was looking at selling. But he said that was just his opinion and he had nothing to substantiate it.
