Heading to St Louis (from Des Moines) and will be staying near the airport. Any good suggestions for places to buy beer near there? Any suggestions for what to buy?
That's a good bet. You can hop on the Metrolink train at the airport and get off at the Forsyth stop which is literally in the parking lot of The Wine and Cheese Place. Do it.
Small local brewery. Don't know anything about them. I think it was the first time they bottled according to the guy at the store. I definitely appreciated that they made their bottle date prominent on the label...and that it was 3 days ago. May have even been hand stamped. Label described it as single hop mosaic IPA. 6%. Great beer. I rarely buy based on the label but picked up 3 of these and glad I did.
