    My better half is heading there. dug through the places forum, but didnt see many stores. Anything in the area i should have her look out for. Or anyone want to do a drop off/trade at her hotel?

    Texas stuff, jester king, firestone walker, ballast point, etc. etc.

    You're very trusting of people on the internet to meet your wife at a hotel :wink:

    Weyerbacher is in Easton and they are open on Fridays and Saturdays to buy bottles. We get beer from all the breweries you mentioned.

    I haven't been in a long while but I rememeber Porter's Pub and Black & Blue as being two good beer bars and I'm pretty sure they had take-out beer. They are near each other too and in the heart of the town. For a large store there's a Wegman's supermarket a little north of Easton. I doubt they'll have any major rarities but for good prices on PA local and NE/Mid-Atlantic regional stuff they are probably the best bet.

    Other bottle shop options in the area would be Abe's in Bethlehem and the Bourbon Street store in Greenwich/Phillipsburg NJ located in the shopping plaza with Home Depot and Shop-Rite.

    Some supermarkets in PA sell beer as of a law change a couple years ago. Some Wegmans stores, some Whole Foods, etc.

    Two businesses under one roof. They have to serve food for eating in the restaurant/eatery premises. Then they can qualify for incense to sell beer for on premises consumption or in limited quantity for take away.

    Not really a law change, just two businesses under one roof, eatery and grocery store with separate registers, etc.

    Somehow I left FreeBridge, just over the free (non-toll) bridge in Phillipsburg, out of my earlier post. Good bottle shop, good people, good drafts, and growler specials on Thursday.
