The Beer Thrillers Join the Hops and Vines for Hunger https://thebeerthrillers.com/2023/09/12/the-beer-thrillers-join-the-hops-and-vines-for-hunger/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=the-beer-thrillers-join-the-hops-and-vines-for-hunger Tue, 12 Sep 2023 15:52:16 +0000 https://thebeerthrillers.com/?p=12413
The Beer Thrillers are joining the Hops and Vines for Hunger cause

The Beer Thrillers are Joining the Hops and Vines for Hunger Cause

As you might have seen on the Hops and Vines for Hunger Facebook and / or Instagram pages today – The Beer Thrillers have joined their cause.

As we covered in our previous article – Hops and Vines for Hunger (2023) – Hops and Vines for Hunger reached out to us letting us know this year they were actively trying to get bloggers, content creators, and influencers to join the cause – alongside breweries, wineries, and distilleries.

Hops and Vines for Hunger

The campaign aims to:

  • Raise funds to maximize the work of Feeding Pennsylvania’s nine member food banks and serve Pennsylvanians facing hunger
  • Support the development of nutrition education resources created by PA Eats to educate food-insecure Pennsylvanians on how to prepare simple, accessible meals with affordable, healthy ingredients commonly found in food pantries
  • Promote the support of local breweries and wineries across the Commonwealth

This is a month long fundraiser in November and they have been doing it yearly now for a few years.

Registration is now closed for new members to join adding their name to the cause – but you can still help. You can donate through the numerous breweries, wineries, distilleries, bloggers, content creators, YouTubers, and Influencers who have joined this great cause.

The Beer Thrillers

We will be writing several articles promoting various breweries and their contributions and programs to raise money for the Hops and Vines for Hunger program and cause – as well as thinking and finding ways of our own to participate and donate to the cause.

So please join us in bringing attention to this great cause and helping us promote, help, donate, and help it grow. Stay tuned with us for more information and more articles.

For More Information

For more information on Feeding PA and Hops and Vines for Hunger, you can visit the following pages:

Happy Birthday Amy https://thebeerthrillers.com/2023/08/22/happy-birthday-amy/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=happy-birthday-amy Tue, 22 Aug 2023 15:19:54 +0000 https://thebeerthrillers.com/?p=12290 Let’s Celebrate

Its that time yet again — it’s Amy’s birthday! Shhh… I’m smart enough to not say her age (…well, I wasn’t smart enough in this post last year – Amy’s Birthday, but thats besides the point). Please join me in wishing Amy a tremendous birthday!

She’s had a very busy year since her last rotation around the sun. She’s given birth, further cemented her job, and written a lot of articles here for the blog, as well as done a lot of work for us behind the scenes. (And she’s been a pretty swell girlfriend too, not gonna lie. A great secretary and an even better girlfriend.)

So again, please join me in saying HAPPY BIRTHDAY to her. If you see her today, tomorrow, this weekend, or anytime before August 31st – please wish her a birthday. (And yes, I’m only giving you until the 31st, after that its no longer belated, its just late, and rude, and don’t even bother saying it.)

Taking a Look Back

Let’s take a look back at Amy’s articles she’s written for us here at The Beer Thrillers. Starting with her weekly column. After coming back from the pregnancy, she delved into writing us a weekly column, and we’ve been ever so appreciative of it. You can find her weekly column articles here:

Thats quite the list right there… but wait…. there’s more!

Beer Review: Sorbetto 40 (Ever Grain Brewing Company)

Beer Review: Sorbetto 40 by Ever Grain Brewing Company

Let’s start off with her first article, dated November 17th, 2021. Miss Amy loves her Sorbetto series by Ever Grain Brewing Company, and she wanted to kick off her articles with them. A quick excerpt:

“There is a secret part of me, well not so secret anymore, that is OBSESSED with the sorbetto line. Maybe a little obsession with the yinzbetto line. The Sorbetto series was the line of beers that got me through quarantine and coincidently celebrating my 40th birthday over quarantine as well. The thrill of a new sorbetto announcement STILL tickles my fancy.”Beer Review: Sorbetto 40 (Ever Grain Brewing

Beer Review: Missile Toad (Ever Grain Brewing Company)

Beer Review: Missile Toad by Ever Grain Brewing Company

Did you know that Amy loves Ever Grain Brewing Company? Yea… its not really a big secret that she’s a huge fan of their brewery and their beers. Her second article here for The Beer Thrillers blog was a second Ever Grain Brewing Company beer review; this time Missile Toad. Dated on December 22nd, 2021.

A quick excerpt:

“When this tasty season treat came out last year when we were all stir crazy from quarantine I went on a long, long adventure with my friend the Missile Toad. I am normally not a fan of the grapefruit notes in my beer, but this triple IPA holds up with a high ABV, very light straw color and a not so boozy taste.”Beer Review: Missile Toad (Ever Grain Brewing Company)

Beer Review: Riff Mountain 7 (South County Brewing Company)

Beer Review: Riff Mountain 7 by South County Brewing Company

Another favorite of Miss Amy is South County Brewing Company, and her third beer review (and her third article) for the blog reflects that – with South County’s Riff Mountain number seven.

A quick excerpt:

I first tried this beer (the first iteration / the first version of it / the first variant of it) when kicking off my three – week furlough from my full-time job. Of course, I decided to kick off my work furlough, while celebrating still having a full-time job, by joining friends at South County Brewing Co. It was a wise decision. Riff Mountain took me on a smooth hop ride that was fitting to kick off a three – week furlough to disconnect from work and a global pandemic.Beer Review: Riff Mountain 7 (South County Brewing Company)

This article, dated December 28th, 2021, was her third article and her third beer review. You can find the article here: Beer Review: Riff Mountain 7 (South County Brewing Company) by Amy Wolfe.

Beer Review: Sorbetto 42 (Ever Grain Brewing Company)

Beer Review: Sorbetto 42 by Ever Grain Brewing Company

A bit ironic (or just coincidence, or whatever term you want to use), but Miss Amy also reviewed Sorbetto 42. Perfectly timed here for her 42nd birthday. And as you can see, she really does love Ever Grain Brewing Company, and loves their Sorbetto series. This article was dated January 16th, 2022.

A quick excerpt:

There is a secret Sorbetto dance I perform when I see Ever Grain post they came out with a new Sorbetto. I might do a similar celebration dance for the yinzbetto series and Drippity announcements too. Since it’s so darn cold out, this dance was effective at also warming up my cold bones.

Yes, I’m still obsessed with the Sorbetto series. I just feel like Ever Grain gets me when it comes to this series. It was everything I needed in my life and well…. still need! The forty second one in the series does not disappoint! Check out my other Sorbetto review – Beer Review: Sorbetto 40 (Ever Grain Brewing Co.) or my other beer review from Ever Grain Brewing (Beer Review: Missile Toad)

Brewfests with Anxiety

Brewfests with Anxiety – Amy at the Cushwa 5th Anniversary Brewfest

Amy’s next article was a departure from her beer reviews, but a big article that she felt very strongly about and (in my opinion) her best piece of writing. In it she talks about anxiety, panic attacks, and brewfests, and how to best combat the anxiety attacks at brewfests. This article came after we went down to the Cushwa 5th Anniversary Brewfest. Her article is dated January 23rd, 2022.

A quick excerpt:

I went to a crowded Brewfest and I didn’t have a panic attack.  This is huge. No, this is a massive victory for me, my anxiety, and feelings of inadequacy in social settings.

As an avid beer lover being able to attend a Brewfest and sample many brews is a mecca of the craft beer drinking lover.  Let’s be honest, when you are in a large crowd and can barely move even the social butterfly will feel some twinges of nervousness.

What often leads to a bad situation is I know I will feel less anxious if I drink more, thus often leading to a less than enjoyable evening.  Not to mention the “clean up” of an evening that I drank too much to mask my panic attacks.

I still remember one of my first panic attacks as a young 20 something.  I walked into my small, hometown bar.  All those parked in their regular spots at the bar and those enjoying an evening out in groups at tables all turned to look who just walked in the door.  I felt a tightening around my neck and I was able to inhale very little oxygen. Brewfests with Anxiety

You can read the full article here: Brewfests with Anxiety by Amy Wolfe.

Beer Review: Phantomania (Fourscore Beer Company)

Beer Review: Phantomania by Fourscore Beer Company

Amy’s latest and most recent article was another beer review, again from another of her favorite breweries – Fourscore Beer Company out of Gettysburg PA. This one is dated March 9th, 2022. But have no fear, she has quite a few projects she’s working on her for the blog, and she’ll have new articles soon. (She’s also working on a much bigger project with Scarlet Emma in production, due to arrive November 22nd).

A quick excerpt:

There are so many things to unpack about this beer. I feel like I’m always on the hunt for the next tasty hazy IPA…and let me tell you I like them hazy!  That perfect Hazy IPA reminds me what it feels like when Homer has that drooling eye roll moment.

The tropical and citrusy aroma of Phantomania quickly took me away to a better place than central pa during a freezing rainy day!  It must be this fabulous hop combination.  It ends on a bitter taste, but it just cleanses that palate and you are ready for the next satisfying sip.Beer Review: Phantomania (Fourscore Beer Company)

Hops and Vines for Hunger (2023) https://thebeerthrillers.com/2023/08/01/hops-and-vines-for-hunger-2023/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=hops-and-vines-for-hunger-2023 Tue, 01 Aug 2023 15:43:57 +0000 https://thebeerthrillers.com/?p=12134
Hops for Hunger

Raising the Bar in the Fight Against Hunger

Hops for Hunger (Hops and Vines for Hunger) reached out to us to help them promote this wonderful fundraiser.

The campaign aims to:

  • Raise funds to maximize the work of Feeding Pennsylvania’s nine member food banks and serve Pennsylvanians facing hunger
  • Support the development of nutrition education resources created by PA Eats to educate food-insecure Pennsylvanians on how to prepare simple, accessible meals with affordable, healthy ingredients commonly found in food pantries
  • Promote the support of local breweries and wineries across the Commonwealth

This is a month long fundraiser in November and they have been doing it yearly now for a few years.

Hops and Vines for Hunger

The following comes from their campaign (Our Programs) page:

Pennsylvania boasts over 800 breweries and wineries combined across the state — and that number is growing. But just as these numbers are increasing, so are the number of food insecure families and individuals across Pennsylvania. In fact, nearly 2 million Pennsylvanians struggle with hunger every day – including nearly 500,000 children.

That’s why Feeding Pennsylvania, PA Eats, and Breweries in PA are joining forces with local breweries and wineries across the state through Hops & Vines for Hunger — a month-long, statewide fundraiser throughout November. The campaign will aim to:

  • Raise funds to maximize the work of Feeding Pennsylvania’s 9 member food banks and serve Pennsylvanians facing hunger;
  • Support the development of nutrition education resources created by PA Eats to educate food-insecure Pennsylvanians on how to prepare simple, accessible meals with affordable, healthy ingredients commonly found in food pantries;
  • Promote the support of local breweries and wineries across the Commonwealth.

This year, for their upcoming November campaign – Feeding PA through Hops and Vines for Hunger are reaching out to bloggers, influencers, YouTubers, and more to help get the word out on this wonderful campaign to try and boost and promote the need to help feed people in Pennsylvania.

You can do your part as well. If you would like to help out with the campaign, in any way, go to their “Our Programs page here: Feeding PA – Hops and Vines for Hunger (Our Programs) page. There you can see ways to promote, and campaign, as well as ways to donate directly.

    The Beer Thrillers Discord Server

    Hey all! We are getting hip, young, and cool here at The Beer Thrillers. You can now find us on Discord! Yes, thats right, we now have our own Discord Server!

    I’ve been fiddling with this and trying to get it set up for a while, and now its finally here!

    Discord is a great way to stay in touch, chat, and keep talking in a more loose and informal manner. Its a fun way to talk about craft beer, breweries, and all kinds of other things.

    At our server, you will find channels for the following:

    • general
    • our – content
    • cheers
    • breweries
    • local – watering – hole – breweries
    • literature
    • gaming
    • nerd – culture
    • a – pint – at – the – movies
    • beer – swag
    • show – your – content

    So lots of fun channels to hang out in and talk with each other.

    Rules

    Of course there is some rules to the use of the Discord server. And most of these are the obvious type of ones.

    • 21+ For any Beer Discussion
    • Be polite. At all times. Be polite. Just be kind to each other.
    • No hate speech. Of any sort.
    • Keep religious and political discussion to an absolute bare minimum
    • The Beer Thrillers have the right to block, delete, or remove anyone or any post from the server
    • No spam. There is a “show your content” server, you can post in there, but do so sparingly, and conscientiously
    • Again: Be Civil. If you can’t be. Then don’t contribute, don’t chat, and just recuse yourself from discussion and the server.
    • And most importantly – have fun!

    There are lots of features on the Discord server, like uploading your own pictures, audio, video, and PDFs, as well as sharing internet GIFs and memes and links. This should be a great way for our community to grow, and have fun with each other.

    I can’t wait til everyone is on board, having fun, toasting each other’s beers, and having a great time!

    LinkTree

    You can find The Beer Thrillers on LinkTree now as well. This is an easy and great way for us to showcase a group of our links in one go. Makes things easier on places like Instagram, Facebook, Discord, and elsewhere. You can find our LinkTree page here:

    Map of New Breweries We Visited in 2022 https://thebeerthrillers.com/2023/01/01/map-of-new-breweries-we-visited-in-2022/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=map-of-new-breweries-we-visited-in-2022 Sun, 01 Jan 2023 19:06:55 +0000 https://thebeerthrillers.com/?p=15354

    A map of the breweries we visited for the first time in 2022

    Map of New Breweries We Visited in 2022

    This is a map of all the “new to us” breweries we visited in 2022. And by this I mean the physical locations. I’ve obviously been to Boneshire Brew Works (since their very first day of opening), but this was the first time going to their “Taps @ Soma” location. The ZeroDay location is similarly the same, its technically a “new” location for them, thus why it makes the list.

    This list is Ben’s first time visits (mostly visited with Amy, and then later Scarlet).

    How to Use The Map

    You can zoom in, and click on each of the beer mugs with the paw prints on them to see the breweries. This will call up their address via Google Maps, as well as any other information they have supplied to Google (phone numbers, websites, etc.). You can also save this map to your Google Maps so when you call up Google Maps these locations will be pinned onto your map as an overlay.

    Maps of Breweries in the United States of America (USA)

    The below is a list of maps of the states, territories, and districts of the United States. As well as a fun map of all the breweries that The Beer Thrillers have been to. I am working on getting these done geographically, starting with Maine. (When the state is underlined and in color, means the map is done and ready to be viewed.)

    We are working on a massive project here at The Beer Thrillers. We are creating a map of all of the breweries across the United States. State by state we are adding maps of all of the different states with every brewery in each state. (We will eventually get to the US Territories, as well as the Canadian Provinces, and possibly more countries; as well as doing some fun maps like a map of all the breweries we’ve been to, and other fun maps.) You can find the brewery maps here:

    We are also working on a project of creating printable and downloadable PDFs and resources to be able to check and keep track of all of the breweries you’ve been to. So stay tuned for that project once we are finished with the Brewery Maps of the US States.

    Let’s Take a Look Back: Our First 30 Articles https://thebeerthrillers.com/2022/12/14/lets-take-a-look-back-our-first-30-articles/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=lets-take-a-look-back-our-first-30-articles Wed, 14 Dec 2022 21:06:11 +0000 https://thebeerthrillers.com/?p=10048 Let’s Take a Look Back

    Lets do a little time traveling and look back over the three and a half years this blog has been up and running. Let’s go all the way back to our very beginning and take a look at our first thirty posts! (Because, why not?) This is going to be taking us back to the end of May 2019 when I first started the blog.

    Back in May 2019 seems like centuries ago, it was pre – COVID, I was just starting to work through my separation and divorce and needing something to do. I was working Saturday through Wednesday at the casino with Thursday and Friday off. It was definitely a lot different back then than it is now (now, I’m with Amy, we just introduced Scarlet – my fourth daughter / her first), I am a lot happier and also now have off Friday and Saturday rather than Thursday and Friday – which makes it a lot easier to do trips and brewfests now as well. I was 34 when I started the blog, now I’m 37, and would like to say I’m more knowledgeable and smarter (about beer, about blogging, about websites, about life), but I would be lying if I told you that much.

    Thirty Oldest

    Why thirty? Well, why not really? I dunno to be sure. Just felt like thirty. It’s been a while since I did a list (or listicle) and felt why not. I’ll probably do a few more at the end of the year (2022 specific ones), but just felt like doing this list before getting to my daily chores (still off work – I don’t go back til December 26th). So without further adieu, lets start the list!

    The Beer Thrillers First Thirty Posts

    1. Beer Review: Scratch 375: Coco-Nator (Troegs Independent Brewing Company)

    Coco-Nator – Scratch 375 by Troegs Independent Craft Brewing

    “Welcome to the first beer/brew review of The Beer Thrillers. Since this is the first of our beer reviews, we’ll be setting up a bit of a pattern here. We’ll state the name of the beer, the brewing company, the date consumed, then run down things like ABV/IBU, malts, hops, colorings, adjuncts, and other pertinent information in that regard. As well as any backstory or Untapped information on the beer. Then we’ll write up our review of the beer as well as give our rating of it, and the “global” rating of it from Untappd just for reference sake. ‘”

    Beer Review: Scratch 375 – Coco-Nator (Troegs Independent Craft Brewing)

    2. Beer Review: Painting with Light (South County Brewing Company)

    Painting with Light – South County Brewing Company

    Another day calls for another beer review. This time, after a long day’s work (yes, I work Saturday’s, thus why I’m drinking a beer and reviewing beer) as well as some yard work afterwards results in the need for a nice, cold, crisp beer. And today’s beer is Painting with Light, a DIPA (Double India Pale Ale) by South County Brewing Company.

    So, since all of my adult duties are done for the day, without further adieu lets move right on to the beer!

    Beer Review: Painting with Light (South County Brewing Company)

    3. Beer Review: Boulangerie Stout – Imperial Churro (Tattered Flag)

    Boulangerie Stout by Tattered Flag and Derek Wolf (before Wolf Brewing Company opened)

    The start to any weekend (and yes, my weekend begins Wednesday night, with my days off being Thursday-Friday) requires a relaxing fantastic beer to enjoy, and something strong to remove all lingering reminders of work…. and I picked a wonderful one to do it with.

    This is not a new beer for me (or even a new beer period) by any stretch. And I’ll be upfront on this, I helped Tattered Flag (and Derek Wolf of Wolf Brewing Co) to can it. We canned it on 1.17.19, so roughly four months ago. But obviously, as a stout, that’s no problem, especially kept cool in my fridge from the time it came home. (And according to Untappd, I’ve checked into this now 15 times, so I’d say I’m a bit familiar with the beer).

    Beer Review: Boulangerie Stout – Imperial Churro (Tattered Flag)

    4. Beer Review: You Hoppin On Me? (Tattered Flag)

    Hopping on Me (Tattered Flag)

    So its been one week since I started the blog, and this will be the fourth beer review. And with a week of the blog, also comes another mowing, weekend of yard work and general house maintenance and a (not) relaxing evening enjoying a beer. For today’s beer review, I decided to do a brand new release (released today, canned yesterday), a beer I helped can and another beer from Tattered Flag (my second review of their beer).

    You Hoppin On Me? is a brand new beer from Tattered Flag, both brand new recipe, and brand new release. Its a New England style hazy beer and it definitely delivers on the haze and the juice. So let’s get drinking and reviewing.

    Beer Review: You Hoppin’ On Me (Tattered Flag)

    5. Beer Review: Black & Blue Tastee (The Veil Brewing Co.)

    Black and Blue Tastee by The Veil

    Looking in my fridge after a long day of work on Memorial Day while everyone else was out picnicking and enjoying a beautiful sunny day, I was thrown all over the world in the casino working numerous different games, getting yelled at by numerous different types of guests, and just needing something to drink, like a usual night after work. This time instead of grabbing something new and familiar from the front of the beer fridge I decided to see what all might be lurking in the back of the fridge, and to my surprise, I found this.

    I had traded/bought a four pack of this straight from The Veil Brewing Company over a year ago (according to my stats, my first time having it was on 2.23.18, and this is currently now 5.24.19). So this is definitely going into the “science experiment” beer drinking category. And have no fears as a review, this is going to be based on the beer when I had it the original time with my original notes on it, as well as how it is *NOW*.

    Beer Review: Black & Blue Tastee (The Veil Brewing Co.)

    6. Beer Review: Sundrifter (South County Brewing Company)

    Sundrifter by South County Brewing Company

    Another weekend in May means another chance to mow… or to try and put off mowing until you absolutely have to, which is just as wise. Even wiser when you have a fantastic beer to drink and sip and read rather than do that sweat inducing mowing!

    And today’s beer for the task of procrastination is “Sundrifter” by South County Brewing Company. An absolutely fantastic and refreshing IIPA New England that is pure deliciousness.

    So let’s dive into this fantastic beer!

    Beer Review: Sundrifter (South County Brewing Company)

    And with that, May wraps up and we keep continuing on. I don’t think it was a bad start to the blog. You can certainly tell that my writing was a lot less refined than it is now. But six articles (all beer reviews) between May 19th and May 30th isn’t too bad I suppose. I was at least getting content out there. Not sure how I was doing as far as people reading it (most likely just my friends and family clicking the links and probably not even really reading it). I unfortunately don’t have my stats anymore from 2019 or 2020 (due to switching servers and stuff, and not thinking to write stuff down).

    7. Beer Review: Cinnamon Toast Brunch (Collusion Tap Works)

    Cinnamon Toast Brunch by Collusion Tap Works

    While the kids are in school, getting to sneak off and meet your buddy at a local craft beer bar is a wonderful way to spend an hour of the middle of your day. (One of the few perks of having Thursday/Friday off is that the kids are in school during most of your day off).

    The Warwick Hotel and Restaurant is a staple in Hummelstown and predates the town’s founding. Their claim of fame, and one that is echoed in many taverns/pubs/hotels throughout the Pennsylvania area, is that George Washington once stayed the night there. (No idea on the veracity of this, but we’ll go with it).

    Beer Review: Cinnamon Toast Brunch (Collusion Tap Works)

    8. Beer Review: Baby Genius (Bissell Brothers Brewing Company)

    Baby Genius by Bissell Brothers Brewing Company

    Got a notice from my local beer trading, muling, etc., Facebook group around 4-5PM that Breski’s Beverage was getting Bissell Brother’s in. Two can limit. So I definitely had to make a stop after work, no doubts about it. Bissell Brothers is one of those “sought after” breweries, and not one readily available in the South Central PA area.

    Beer Review: Baby Genius (Bissell Brothers Brewing Company)

    Ahhhh 2019 when a lot of the ‘top tier’ breweries were a lot harder to get. When muling and paying above costs and such were a thing. I certainly don’t miss those days of the craft beer hobby.

    9. Beer Review: LazerSnake (Three Floyds Brewing Company)

    LazerSnake by Three Floyd’s Brewery

    What do you do after a long day at work where you do a massive give-away that brings in hundreds of people looking to score a Harley Davidson motorcycle? …..I think we all know the obvious answer to that rhetorical question.

    LazerSnake is a regular beer from Three Floyds (or 3 Floyds) that has finally started making its way into South Central PA. Its not the highly sought after beers from 3FB like ZombieDust or Alpha Station Middle Finger or obviously Dark Lord but this is a nice staple and “regular” beer to be gotten in six-packs.

    Beer Review: LazerSnake (Three Floyds Brewing Company)

    10. Multiple Beer Review: Brewery Flight (Troegs) – Beers – Scratch #379 – Krausened Keller Pilsner, Scratch #378 – DIPA, Scratch #377 – Oat IPA, and Scratch #376 – Passionfruit & Guava Tart Ale

    A flight at Troegs Brewery

    So this is going to be a bit different than my normal beer reviews, because this is a “mutli-beer review” (four for the price of 1!). Since I’m doing them only as tasters rather than as full drafts, I figure instead of doing a separate beer review for each would be a bit superfluous and decided to do it as one conglomerate post. Plus this also lets me go a bit into the detail of beer flights at breweries and how they are different at different places, and even how Troegs themselves recently changed their beer flights.

    Firstly, lets go into beer flights at breweries (and some bars do them as well) in general. Typically a flight is either one you create yourself or made up by the brewery of anywhere from 3-5 (though some do much larger ones of six or even ten – Spring House and Hop River Bend do very big flights), and they are typically pours of 4oz or 5oz depending on flight size, cost, etc. Some breweries do a “choose” your own flight, where you pick X number from their tap, and some do a “here’s our flight”. Likewise some do a general price for their flight and some do a “by beer” flight cost (ie. if you pick more stouts, your flight will likely be more expensive than if you picked four hefes).

    Troegs Brewery (Hershey Pennsylvania, just down the road from HersheyPark) offers two choices – a pre-set “regular” flight and a “build your own”. The pre-set “regulars” is their mainstays, Perpetual, Troegenator, When in Doubt, HopBack Amber Ale, and their current Hop Cycle beer (this time of year that is now Field Study). And this varies throughout the season with the stout being added in and with some other changes here and there.

    Multiple Beer Review: Brewery Flight (Troegs) – Beers – Scratch #379 – Krausened Keller Pilsner, Scratch #378 – DIPA, Scratch #377 – Oat IPA, and Scratch #376 – Passionfruit & Guava Tart Ale

    11. Beer Review: Abbra Collabra 6 Way Banana Split Milkshake IPA (Tattered Flag)

    Abbra Collabra by Tattered Flag

    Planned a quick stop at the Tattered Flag brewery to pick up my four pack of the “Custardy” (beer review soon coming), and lo and behold I found this on draft. Having wanted to try this, and unfortunately not getting to try it in cans I had to settle for it on draft (due note: “settle” is being used facetiously).

    Tattered Flag has teamed up with several local (Central PA local) breweries to produce quite a few Abbra Collabra’s. Some of these breweries include: Wolf Brewing Co, Collusion Tap Works, Snitz Creek, Pilger Ruh Brewing, Abomination Brewing Company, Rotunda Brewing Company, as well as a brewery out in Denver Colorado.

    This time they teamed up again with Wolf Brewing, as well as Pilger Ruh Brewing, Snitz Creek, Rotunda, and Abomination to release a six-way Abbra Collabra that was sold in cans and on draft at all of their locations (Wolf Brewing Company will soon have their own taproom/brewery, Abomination Brewing is a contact brewer, and Pilger Ruh Brewing is currently in the “soon to be” phase).

    All six of these breweries are top notch, and many of which have won awards. Derek Wolf with Wolf Brewing Company has won a homebrewing award in all 50 states, Tattered Flag along with Pilger Ruh Brewing won for their “Should Have Put Him in Custardy” at the Schuylkill Brewfest. Likewise Rotunda, Snitz Creek, and Abomination has gotten numerous recommendations and consistently does well with ratings on Untappd and other services.

    Beer Review: Abbra Collabra 6 Way Banana Split Milkshake IPA (Tattered Flag)

    12. Beer Review: Sunburst (Boneshire Brew Works)

    Sunburst by Boneshire Brew Works

    Boneshire is about as much of a second home brewery as one comes for a person. I’m there as often as I can, and its an absolutely wonderful atmosphere that is very reminiscent of Cheers, wherein pretty much if you go once or twice, your name is remembered and everyone will know you.

    So its only about time I finally get around to reviewing one of their newest offerings (as well as talking about the place a little bit). And this is certainly a fantastic beer to start off with.

    Beer Review: Sunburst (Boneshire Brew Works)

    13. Brewery Review: Battlefield Brew Works

    Battlefield Brew Works

    Once again, introducing a new feature to the blog, a brewery review. This won’t be about the brewery as a collective whole (ie. a review of all of their beers, styles, etc.) but more or less a review of their location and the beers I had while there. Typically this is one flight or a flight and a draft or two, depending on the amount of time I have at a brewery and a few others factors (if I’m driving, kids with, how the brewery does their samples, their tap list/size, etc.)

    For most breweries I will do a review of their location (hopefully have pictures included) as well as at least a flight of their beers. I will then also make a beer review post about said flight, so it will be kind of a doubling up of blog posts and might seem redundant, but it’ll make things easier for the categorizing on the right hand side, as well as give you the option of what kind of blog post you wish to read if you don’t feel like reading both or all of the text. Also, depending on the place, I might get an extra draft (or two) that I’ll do a review of as well.

    Brewery Review: Battlefield Brew Works

    14. Beer Review: King Crunch (Manayunk Brewing Company)

    King Crunch by Manayunk Brewing Company

    Finding myself with some time to kill after work and getting the usual “beers” Batman alert from my friend, I decided to walk down and meet him at The Warwick Hotel in good old Hummelstown Pennsylvania.

    Get there and he’s already polishing off his Lord Hobo Orange IPA and the place is slightly packed (ok… very packed for a Tuesday). Apparently now, The Warwick is doing trivia on Tuesday nights. (They’ve also started up having live music and even doing a happy hour, so, their making lots of changes and becoming more like a real bar – which is probably a plus.)

    Beer Review: King Crunch (Manayunk Brewing Company)

    15. Beer Review – Northmont (Yellow Bridge Brewing)

    Northmont by Yellow Bridge Brewing Company

    Josh Doncevic’s first beer review for the blog:

    Sometimes the only thing to do after a long day of dealing with customers and mowing the lawn is to come home and crack open a cold one. Isn’t that what we all want? The question then becomes; what should I reach for? Keep reading as I attempt to answer that poignant query.

    Yellow Bridge Brewing is a small, family-owned brewery located in Delmont, PA, just outside of Pittsburgh, near White Valley. If you are unfamiliar with the name, it is probably due to their distribution being centralized around Western Pennsylvania. If you know the right people (thanks Tyler!) or make the trek westward — from Central PA –, Yellow Bridge is most certainly a worthy stopping point.

    Beer Review – Northmont (Yellow Bridge Brewing)

    16. Beer Review: Should Have Put Him in Custardy (Tattered Flag)

    Should Have Put Him in Custardy by Tattered Flag

    The award winning collaboration between Tattered Flag and Pilger Ruh Brewing, straight from the Schuylkill brewfest to cans. This is one absolutely delicious and beautiful brew and deserves the award. And its a perfect beer on a 90 degree hot day in late June.

    A wonderful fruity tart blueberry alcoholic drink is just what the day is calling for after mowing two yards and working on your hops (the bugger’s just won’t stop growing!).

    Beer Review: Should Have Put Him in Custardy (Tattered Flag)

    17. Multiple Beer Review: Dark Skies (New Trail), Blood Money (Conshohocken Brewing Company), Lost Toys #3 (Wicked Weed), Medora (Wicked Weed)

    18. Beer Review: Ectogasm (Drekker Brewing Co.)

    Ectogasm by Drekker Brewing

    It’s the eve of the day many consider to be the birthday of America. Sorry, ‘MURICA! The day before ‘MURICA celebrates 243 years by blowing up the sky with sound and colors.

    Speaking of colors, just look at that can art. Certainly grabs your attention, doesn’t it? Also makes me want to play Dungeons & Dragons or read a superhero comic. NERD ALERT!

    Beer Review: Ectogasm (Drekker Brewing Co.)

    19. Beer Review: Fatum Series: Pink Guava (Tattered Flag)

    Fatum: Pink Guava by Tattered Flag

    Picking up the Pink Starburst IPA (Inexplicably Juicy – review forthcoming) I had to try some beer at the bar (can’t stop at a brewery and not get a beer!).

    This time its the latest iteration of their Fatum series. The fatum series is pretty much all various types of small batch sours and wild ales and they have done A LOT of various types so far. Strawberry rhubarb, just rhubarb, just strawberry, imperial strawberry, blackberry, blackberry lactose, peach, mango, kumquat, apple cranberry, blueberry, blueberry and raspberry, melon star, elderberries, maple kumquat, sangria… etc, etc, etc. (the entire blog would just be a list of all of the different styles/adjuncts).

    Beer Review: Fatum Series: Pink Guava (Tattered Flag)

    20. Beer Review: Inexplicably Juicy (Tattered Flag)

    Inexplicably Juicy by Tattered Flag

    Don’t worry, I promise I’m not a complete Tattered Flag shill. But still… this is a pretty good and tasty brew and you should make an attempt to try it out. Wouldn’t hurt you any anyway.

    First off Happy 4th of July to all those American readers (or Happy Traitor’s Day if your British). As you can see, this was my drink of choice today on America’s 243rd birthday. And I think it was a fantastic choice.

    The beer has a beautiful colorful straw typical of IPA and NEIPA. The head was small but there and retained. It had a crisp and fizziness to it that popped a bit as it poured.

    Beer Review: Inexplicably Juicy (Tattered Flag)

    21. Beer Review: Miami Vice J.R.E.A.M. (Burley Oak Brewing Co.)

    Miami Vice JREAM by Burley Oak Brewing

    What does a 1980’s cop-duo drama starring Don Johnson and Philip Michael Thomas chasing after cocaine smuggling criminals in sunny Miami have to do with beer? Nothing really. I just decided to bring it up since this little brewery in Berlin, Maryland saw fit to name a beer after the show.

    If you’ve heard of Burley Oak, you have no doubt, heard of their incredible J.R.E.A.M. series of sours. If you’ve never heard of Burley or their J.R.E.A.M. series, I have one question; what rock have you been living under?

    Beer Review: Miami Vice J.R.E.A.M. (Burley Oak Brewing Co.)

    22. Beer Review: OLD 51 (Oxbow Brewing Company)

    OLD 51 by Oxbow Brewing Company

    I got a draft of this at the Black Gryphon in Elizabethtown (a wonderful bar, stop by, and talk to Toeny Morgan [he’s the blur in the background of this picture] for a while, great dude who will talk your ear off, more about the bar at the end of this review), and the pour is beautiful. Wonderful caramel notes. Beautiful frothy and foamy head. Lovely bubbles on the top of this. It’s just a downright gorgeous beer.

    This is a beer’s beer. From the aroma, to the color, to the head, to the pouring style, to the taste. Everything about it is traditional beer. My first time trying this style and I was instantly in love with it (same goes for the brewery as well). I just love the look and appeal of the beer, the aroma is a wonderful malty breadyness that just begs you to drink it.

    Beer Review: OLD 51 (Oxbow Brewing Company)

    23. Beer Review: Dillston (Boneshire Brew Works)

    Dillston by Boneshire Brew Works

    Post work and post errands found me out on Derry Street in the Rutherford area… so what else am I supposed to do but stop in at Boneshire? Sure, it’s Monday, and the place is doing their D&D night (which I used to play, but haven’t since roughly the beginning of 3rd Edition), but I made myself at home at the bar to start watching the Phillies-Dodgers game….. …oh no…..

    As you can see from the picture, I actually snapped the shot right as Kingery hit his home run and put the Phills ahead 1-0 over the Dodgers…. (and good god did this game go south fast!). But anyway, enough about a depressing baseball game and much more about a delicious beer.

    Beer Review: Dillston (Boneshire Brew Works)

    24. Beer Reviews: Saison and Hurry Up And Wait (Newfangled Brew Works)

    Newfangled Brew Works Sign

    Welp… Newfangled Brew Works isn’t even around anymore, so this makes my beer reviews of their beer kind of interesting reads for nothing more than historical and nostalgic value.

    So an impromptu night out with a friend for a few drinks means…. an impromptu chance to do a beer review (or two). And as you can tell, being an impromptu review session, the pics aren’t quite up to snuff (being out with friends will make it a bit harder to get the best quality pictures, especially because I do more yapping as I drink and forget to grab that nice beautiful shot as soon as I get my beer). But I’ve been wanting to get back to Newfangled Brew Works (was there for their opening and one other time), so I’ve been wanting to show them some love here on the blog and do a review or two of their beers, and the Hurry Up and Wait was a big huge ‘deal’ so that deserves a review.

    Beer Reviews: Saison and Hurry Up And Wait (Newfangled Brew Works)

    25. Multiple Beer Reviews: No Use For Smugglers (Brick and Feather Brewery), Strong Suit, Glimpse (River Roost Brewery), Realism, Double Obsession (Obercreek Brewing Company) [Toeny’s Travels Flight]

    Toeny’s Travels Flight at Black Gryphon

    Wednesday last week (July 10th) kicked off a nice three day weekend for me (Thursday, Friday, Saturday), with beer events on Friday night and Saturday night, and getting to try new beers each day of the weekend (including what was my Friday night – Wednesday). Got out of work at 6PM, drove immediately to the Willowood Swim Club for my oldest two daughter’s swim meet and then as that ended at 9PM I found myself in Elizabethtown for a little while with nothing to do.

    Moo-Duck closed at 9PM, so that nix-nay’d the idea of trying out their brewery (haven’t been there in quite a few months) and knowing that I was going to be at the Funk Brewery on Friday for the Moo-Funk Homebrew Event, I decided to try out the Black Gryphon.

    So at 9PM on Wednesday I got to kick off my weekend of beer events and beer fun and shenanigans in a great way. Stopping in at one of the preeminent craft beer bars in the area will certainly do that.

    Upon arriving and walking in I immediately run into a good friend Christopher d’Puia (who happened to be out on a date). After a brief chat where we discussed upcoming beer events (Moo-Funk Homebrew and the Ffej of July) I went and grabbed a seat at the bar and started chatting with Toeny Morgan.

    The Black Gryphon has a very impressive tap, can, and bottle list, as well as a few specialties and limited items that pop up from time to time, like the flight (one of two) that I ordered.

    Toeny Morgan had recently done a vast trip to the North East (VT, NH, CT, etc, etc, etc) and brought back many gems from the various breweries he hit up there. (Anyone following him on Facebook or Untappd could have seen his travels and the various breweries and craft bottle shops he hit up.)

    26. Beer Review: Wolf Prints (Imprint Beer Co.)

    Wolf Prints by Wolf Brewing Company

    So somehow this got lost in the interwebs and I was able to manage to pull this out. (In other words, I drunkenly saved it into drafts instead of publishing it, and now getting around to touching it up and publishing it, my apologies all around to all those who were told this was coming out and it never did).

    But have no fear, if I tell you it’s going to get published, it’s going to get published, it might be old, and all, but it’s still going to get published.

    27. Beer Review: Mango Guyabano sWheat Tart (Rotunda Brewing Company)

    Mango Guayabano sWheat Tart by Rotunda Brewing Company

    I had an opportunity to make a quick trip out to Annville, PA to a micro brewery nestled neatly besides another landmark, the Batdorf Restaurant located roughly a quarter mile from the Annville square. Rotunda has become well known across Pennsylvania with the likes of their solid Annville IPA. But there is a style I feel they do better than many. Sours. More specifically their “sWheat Tart” series. Eric Stubbs, RBC’s Head Brewer, will tell you that he never set out to be “the sWheat Tart guy”, but with beauties like this Mango Guyabano sWheat Tart, you would swear he was fibbing.

    28. Twitter / Instagram / Facebook

    I’m just going to lump the next three articles all into one spot here. I made individual posts (who knows why) announcing that I had set up Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook accounts.

    29. Beer Review: Enigma (Anchorage Brewing Company)

    Enigma by Anchorage Brewing Company

    Enigma: e·nig·ma/iˈniɡmə/noun a person or thing that is mysterious, puzzling, or difficult to understand.

    What the definition above misses is that “Enigma” can also refer to a German band from the 90’s, a cryptic coding machine, or for the purposes of this article, a beer. With regards to the beer, the only mystery is how Anchorage manages to keep turning out hit after hit.

    30. Beer Reviews: Green Zebra (Founders) and Next Coast (Goose Island)

    Green Zebra by Founder’s Brewing at poker night at Arooga’s

    Not every beer can be a “whale” and extremely hard to get and worth chasing down and dropping 20$ for some guy to mule it ontop of the 8$ the can costs. Some are going to be regular beers you drink at a bar while playing bar room poker. Some are going to be 3$ happy hour beers that you enjoy for the time being.

    Thats the nature of the game and while they might not be the greatest beers you’ll ever have, there is still some decent beers, and doesn’t mean we can’t give them a little write-up and review.

    So that’s exactly what I’m doing here. Giving two beers that most blogs and most reviewers will overlook a write-up. Why? Well, because I drank them, so why not? But also to highlight that there is so many different beers in the world, and so many different styles and ways to consume beers (draft, can, bottle, at home, away, at a bar, at a party, with friends, while playing poker, while doing trivia, etc.). Beer is just as much as the company you are with as it is the quality of the beer itself. The right company can make a Miller Lite taste acceptable. Or it can even make a JREAM or Utopias taste like swill. (And obviously there is times where the quality of the beer impacts the quality of the company as well. Everything is a two way street after all …..except one way streets…. they are just annoying.)

    Man, I remember when we used to have poker nights at Arooga’s… but that has gone the way of many things due to the pandemic / COVID – 19. But anyway, thats my first 30 articles. (Still not sure why I picked 30, and yes, I picked the 30 before looking at the articles; and also yes – technically its really my first 32 articles since I combined three articles into one above.)

    The article above (Beer Reviews: Green Zebra (Founders) and Next Coast (Goose Island)) brought us to July 25th. So about 3 months from when I started the blog.
