speaking of founders . . . this sounds interesting. my soon to be husband said, "wheres the chips, that sounds like salsa." indeed.
this is from their facebook site, so i hope the picture comes through. for some reason i think facebook pictures posted on facebook dont show up here.

Anyone know if they're serving DC Brau at Merriweather? Going to the show tonight but only saw it there at Sweetlife, and those were served at temporary bars just for that festival.

Those Dieu de Ciel beers will range from wonderfully interesting to wonderfully awesome (the Peche Mortel and Aphrodisiaque).
And of course Stone RuinTen and Enjoy By.
My knowledge of VT brewers beyonf the big three and the mediocre one are lacking. Though I should brush up since I'll be there in a few weeks.
Let us know what the standouts are!

no personal experience with any of these breweries, but a few interest me.
checkout vermont pub & breweries selection. watermelon wheat sounds unique, and so does their sour IPA.
whetstone's away we gose too.

Why, because he decided to do a beer vacation to Vermont instead of Munich?

greatful hands makes some good stuff. definitely catch dieu du ciel. captain lawrence makes some interesting stuff (check out the Golden Delicious if they have it).
you can skip wolaver's and long trail. decent beers but i've never had anything "wow" from them.

Perhaps there are certain people who post here whose beer opinion he respects. He's not going to be able to try everything, so why not get some suggestions.
But you know that, don't you. You're just trolling.

Because he told me to not give my opinion. I would not give my opinion of beer I haven't drunk before. If he is going there why does he need your opinion on what beer to drink anyway. Just drink the beer and make your own opinion.
