I visited a brewery today!

Pink one is the seltzer. The pumpkin had a cinnamon sugar coating on the rim

Cave Hill Farms Brewery near Shenandoah.

Looks like a good time! I was in Massanutten 2 years ago and it was lightly snowing this week. It was peak fall colors in Shenandoah. We ended up going to Brix and Columns Vineyards and Elkton Brewing instead.

Belgian Dubbel at the Benedictine Brewery. Very tasty beer and neat that its brewed by the monks.

Today, I visited Back River Brewery on beautiful (even in winter) Tybee Island, GA, where our own @Bigbre04 is the master brewer. And having sampled the entire tap list, I’m not using the term “master brewer” lightly. This guy can brew.

He basically has a hotplate and spaghetti pot, out if which comes 4 half-kegs of surprisingly good beer. The Hefeweitzen is as good as anything I’ve made, and his Bock is spot on.

We had lunch, and their chef (much more than a cook) makes really good food, especially in a very tourist town.

That looks familiar! I prefer the title Head Yeast Wrangler personally!

Cute spot. That Rye Pale Ale sounds good.

Crying Eagle on Lake Charles, LA. Modern vibe, great location on the water and a nice honey Munich dunkel

A couple of weeks ago we had dinner at Maui Brewing's mothership on island...pretty much a very expensive glass of OK with lots of stainless steel and a creative use of old kegs where you enter and exit through the swag shop...

 

[Donoroto]

That’s a lot of taps.

Two Peaks for lunch and a pint

Tusket Falls Beer Project and Propeller Brewing Co in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Lunch at Tusket Falls was amazing (brisket melt and Cubano sandwich)

 

[Sandy Feet]

Brisket melt...yummm

3 IPAs at Breton Brewing Crafthouse in Sydney, Nova Scotia

Susquehanna Brewing Co. on a beautiful day in NEPA.

 

[Donoroto]

Hm. Anything like the Susquehanna Hat Company?

(Anyone get the reference?)

 

[BarbarianBrewer]

Sounded familiar but, I still had to look it up to refresh my memory. Love Abbott & Costello! I think Whose On First is one of the funniest comedy routines ever!

Wheelhouse Brewing in Prince Rupert BC
Couple of real nice beers, Kazu Maru, and Flagship Pale Ale, enjoyed overlooking Prince Rupert Harbour. It is quite cool here the temperature has ben between 10C and 13C, stunning scenery though.
