That way you only have yourself to blame for the fuck up! ;)
Catamount Ale wasn't great but it's what we had back then. Those were the early days of the microbrew resurgence. They a porter iirc that was better than the ale.
And Harpoon blows goats.

get some before the rain does.
Remember their seasonal smoked porter? Some years it tasted a bit smokey, others tasted like bacon sautéed in your crusty aunts pall mall 100’s filled week old ash tray.Quote:

VT lost a solid brewer/ bar owner last night. McNeil was salty, annoyed, and kicked me out of his pub a couple of times. I like to think of him on the same plane of Geary’s, both dipped their toes into mass market in the 90’s early 00’s but then dialed back when the realized it compromised their product and life.
Don't fool yourself, he didn't leave. Lurkers lurk.Quote:

Making the mounds.
Talked to a lifty who said the bravo diesel was fixed and inspected. Had been scheduled to work HG today with an odd top2bottom route, but they nixed it due to rescue safety concerns, which is understandable. I would rather they leave the new snow alone until it won't get rained on immediately.

Raging wind and flickering power has ended, 36º and falling bob. Running out of tillable base around here, tomorrow is going to be very firm at best. Get Some!
Being from the East Coast, I pointed ‘em for the only twigs I could find.

Sure by todays standards his beers were middle of the road, but in the 90’s an oasis of flavor in a sea of fermented rice water. Obviously people have different opinions on beers but you have to respect an individual that found a passion for beer and made it work for him for 30 some odd years.Quote:
