Having another Stone Breweries Fear, Movie, Lions. Tasty Double IPA. Can't get this on tap locally, but it's good from a can poured in a glass.

I was out at a restaurant last week and they ran out of Evo #3, their only craft beer on tap. Next time they pull shit like that, I will apologize and leave. When you have like 8 taps, you don't need 7 Bud Lite clones.

I am having a Hammerhead from our local Big Oyster Brewery. Nice refreshing IPA, 6.4%. ABV.

How has Lagunitas done since they were bought by Heineken? I know Buttwiper has screwed up a number of microbrews they've bought, thinking previous afficionados wouldn't notice. I used to live in Massachusetts and would occasionally find Lagunitas at local bars on tap, but Massachusetts isn't known for microbrews. Now in Delaware the local beer scene is more vibrant and we have better options.

I believe Jeremy Marshall is still involved from Lagunitas, the rest have moved on.....I haven't found a difference in a lot of their beers and the seasonal ones are outstanding as I mentioned....The only one that I've moved on from is the Sumpin' Sumpin'which was probably the first one that hit the east coast....it just doesn't taste the same for some reason.....Agree on Buttwiper.....I dread when I see Budweiser get their hands on anything......

Dooood.... Mass has some bomb craft beer. It's probably because you lived there before craft beer was big

Had some Voracious IPA from Thompson Island Brewery here in Delaware. We picked up half a case of fresh cans because it's really good and we're having chili tomorrow.

Thompson Island is part of a restaurant group and fully deserves to be thought of as a restaurant in its own right, but we go there to enjoy the beer as much as the food.

Right now, I am finishing up my milk from my nightly dose of old man pills. I have to keep the milk away from the cat. Emily is the nice little old lady cat, but she, like most cats, is lactose intolerant so can't have it.

Twin Elephant No Brakes and The Swarm. Swarm was amazing! Might be my favorite beer right now. Brewed with Vic Secret, Citra and Hull Melon hops with local honey. Fruity and floral, sweet but not overly. So glad I picked some up.

I'll probably take a good trip to Mass in the spring. Would love to hit Brick and Feather and Vanished Valley. I'd also make a pit stop at Tree House.
