    Nice article in Washington Post yesterday about Cabinet Artisanal in Alexandria (Terry from Bullfrog's new brewery).

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifes...lt-following/2012/02/14/gIQAWA3kRR_story.html

    Particularly amused by the quote about one his beers being possibly the best made in DC-area despite his beers you know, not yet being available locally yet.

    Hopefully Farmer's Cabinet won't close before this gets off the ground.

    Hopefully the Alexandria location gets off the ground soon. I need my local farmhouse fix.

    Agreed. 6 months is a long time to wait !

    No kidding! It has been far too long already. At least I'll be getting up to Philly soon enough to try some of the beers, but I'm ready to have them in my backyard.

    I don't get the distribution thing. 35 states? What's that going to be like two cases of each release per state? I'm sure they have a plan, but it's going to be interesting to see how things are divvied up. You would think they'll just send certain beers to just a few of those markets at a time.

    Hearing a lot of good things about these guys. Haven't had a chance to try anything myself, but will defiantly try the out if I ever see any of their stuff.
