    Ok can we just talk about their beers this time.

    Flavoraroma was awesome. Very HF like.

    All I can say is I'm a huge fan, don't live close but swing by about once a month when I'm in the area. I came in the first week they were open and Jean and crew have been nothing but super friendly from day one. Really disappointed I was not able to attend the beer dinner they just had or to get a bottle of the beer that night.Have reviewed and enjoyed almost all of their offerings although I'm slacking a bit due to schedule conflicts; should be there this weekend and hoping that Flavoraroma will still be around.

    They are going through it very quickly. 4.5 kegs on Friday alone. They kind of hinted on Facebook that it probably wouldn't last through the week.

    Yeah I saw that. Oh well, can't have 'em all. I'll just have whatever they DO have when I get there and I'm pretty sure I will dig it. Looking forward to trying that Kvass actually, not sure when they'll have it available or if I'm gonna miss it.

    I am not even a local so you can't call me a homer but I am an unabashed flag-waver for this place. My favorite brewpub hands down.

    FlavorAroma's so good, I'd be damn near appalled if they didn't bring it back at some point. If there were ever an IPA to keep on at all times like a FarmHands or HopHands...I'd want this to be it.

    This sounds like a must for a growler fill.
    Stopping by Tuesday for a couple drafts and hopefully a growler.

    I love Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt...but this is probably my favorite Tired Hands beer thus far.

    I liked ZOMBIE more then FlavorAroma, but still blown away by the IPA.

    Zombie was impressive. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did. Single
    Hop saisons saisons are great as well.

    I stopped in on Sunday to try the FlavorAroma. Its probably my favorite Tired Hands beer up to this point.

    They just posted on facebook that they are going to be releasing the Westy 13 in bottles at the end of December. Exciting development!

    I'll be there for a glass on Tuesday - doing standup down the block at Milkboy that night. Psyched!

    Flavoraroma was great. Zombie was just a little better. Wish I could have stayed for more. The porter was just right also (Goblin?)

    I really hope FlavorAroma lasts until the Westy 13 release! Don't think I can make it down there twice this week. And I agree about Goblin with the previous poster...I shared a growler with my sister this weekend and thought it was a really impressive representation of the style.

    Finally have a chance to visit this Saturday. Seems like I've been talking about going forever. You all have certainly set the bar high for me!

    You'll still be pleasantly surprised by something. Be it the beers, the staff or the atmosphere, this place is what a brew pub is about.

    Interestingly, calling it a brew pub doesn't seem to even do it justice.

    Tired Hands just posted on their facebook page that Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt will be tapped today. The taplist for Tuesday's Westy13 tapping is really shaping up to be awesome! Zombie, MAP, EWBNH, Westy13, and (maybe) FlavorAroma!

    I stopped in last night for a few samples and got a growler of flavoraroma to go..good stuff. Nice place, just wish I was a bit closer. I had one of their cheese/bread plates..tasty.

    I thought Vampire was the best IPA I ever had brewed in PA. Then I had FlavorAroma. Spectacular.
