    The parents are moving to Delaware....about 20 minutes from Dogfish Head's brewpub.......jackpot.

    The one in Rehoboth? That place is delicious.
    Indeed.

    Tried the Tröegs Perpetual IPA for the first time last night.

    It went down a little too easily. Before I knew it, all six cans were crushed in the recycling bin.

    Gotta be more careful with that stuff next time -- especially on a school night. Fuck today in the blowhole.

    That is a GLORIOUS beer

    Nugget Nectar is the best beer on the planet.

    Sucks that Rehoboth declined the plans to expand that brewpub. That place is ALWAYS packed.

    My in-laws shorehouse is 5 mins from the Dogfish Brewery. I'm there a lot. Much more chill than the Rehoboth spot.

    Leave for Denver on Friday. So many breweries to check out...

    Hi,

    I'm heading to Toronto from the UK in Sept. Has anyone got any suggestions as to places for good beer or what I should be looking for in the shops?

    Thanks

    Beer week begins here next week but alas the 14th Annual Sasquatch Brewfest has been cancelled.

    Been drinking a lot of Boneyard RPM IPA. Only available on tap but it is a truly delicious beer.

    My first Boneyard RPM was at the brewery in Bend years ago and I fell in love with it. Luckily I can get it on tap locally now at an awesome burger place near my house. Great IPA!

    The Hop Venom and Notorious IPA are pretty good as well. I'm actually going to Bend today and going to stop in at the brewery.

    Very rich both in flavor and mouthfeel. It's not overly spicy but definitely has a constant chili pepper afterburn,

    It's worth trying, but it only comes in 22 oz bottles. I was burnt out on the fullness of the sriracha flavor of it after getting about half-way through and the overkill started to come across as gimmicky rather than well-balanced. I wouldn't drink it during the summer.

    I would say split a bottle with a friend or use the other half for cooking.

    Good review. I agree with your recommendation. It is tough to drink an entire 22oz bottle without getting fatigued taste buds. But it does have good flavor, and I actually have used it for cooking. I found it much better than Rogue's Voodoo maple and bacon beer, which I found totally undrinkable even though maple and bacon are two of my favorite flavors.

    I had 3 Pisgah Brewing(ery?) Company Blueberry Wheat beers at the Todd Snider show last month and they were the 3 finest beers I've ever had!

    Haven't had this yet. HUGE fan of their Zombie Dust and Arctic Panzer Wolf. Easier to find but still really good are their Yum Yum and Alpha King. Have a bottle of Dark Lord that I'm waiting on to mature. 3 Floyd's has got it going on.

    Hahaha yeah! Who wants a refreshing beer on a hot summer night anyway?

    It outsold the IPA and whatever else they had by double.

    3 Floyd's is the best. I like that it's getting a lot easier to find these days. It used to be impossible to find any of their beers a few years ago. Zombie dust is so damn good.
