Pennsylvania gets some amazing beer while also having some terrible beer laws. I think we get Russian River because of Monks Cafe in Philly, Alchemist stuff comes pretty rarely (although these were canned within a week of now), and Fonta Flora is new to the market but I recognized the name from somewhere and got it as an impulse buy.
Ahh yes. Makes sense! I had my first Blind Pig and Pliny at Monks when visiting a friend. I forgot how wild the rules are there. FF is one of my faves here in NC. That’s a solid one, but if any of their wild ales, kvass, lagers or mixed-cultures make their way around you, snatch those bad boys up.
Had the Porter last night and it was really good. I like how it was going overboard with the adjuncts, it still tasted like a classic Porter with hints of coffee and vanilla. I think I’ve seen some of their lagers and sours, I’ll definitely be trying more from them.
Alchemist...RR....fonta flora....is there a place where California, vermont and NC all share a border that I am not aware of? Cheers!
