It's taken some time but here is the synopsis of my trip to Florida and cigar City Brewery. First I had an awesome time in Florida. It was great seeing family and I got to drip some amazing beers and had an all around great time doing everything we did there. Cigar city is fantastic. The tour is around $5 and you get a Cigar City glass and about 2 full beers on the tour. About half a glass of four different beers. We went on a Saturday so we had the pleasure of touring with Bob. He only works on weekends so that is definitely the time to go. He is very informative and a pretty funny guy. The first stop is the tasting room where you get to indulge is some Florida Cracker named after Florida's Rodeo scene. All Cigar City brews take their names from Florida and Tampa's rich history. Next it was off to the canning room where we had some Maduro. There we learned some interesting facts and seen a "Big Ass Fan". I believe that is what it is actually called. Next it was off to the micro lab and time for some Invasion. There we learned about all the testing Cigar City does. Lastly we went back to the tasting room and concluded our tour with some Jai Alai fresh off the fermentor. Jai Alai was my favorite. All in all we tried two flights and the beers on the tour. While there I had Homefront IPA, Strawberry Creamsicle, Bolita Double Brown Ale, Jai Alai White Oak Aged IPA, Key Lime IPA, Cubano-Style Espresso Brown Ale, Caffe Americano Double Stout, Grand Dix, Maduro Brown Ale, and Invasion Pale Ale. Out of all the great beers I had that day Bolita Double Brown Ale was my favorite. All in all this was easily the best brewery trip I have ever had. It was great going to somewhere new having some great beers and sharing that experience with my great family. All of us had a great time and I'm looking forward to going back again. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.<br />

I just got back from an awesome vacation down to Florida and I am feeling super recharged. While I was down there I got an email from <i style="background-color: white; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border: 0px; color: #00a0ff; font-family: inherit; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="http://www.beerconnoisseur.com/network" style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #00a0ff; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Liberation Sans', FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">The Beer Connoisseur</a> </i><span style="background-color: white; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> about a Kick starter campaign they wanted me to write about. So I figured I'd check it out and write about that one today and then do one on Cigar City which I visited when I was down in Florida sometime over the weekend. So first I checked out their Kick starter campaign. It looked pretty interesting and like a decent value. You get a membership, access to the site and discounts at different places. The site is pretty well put together and there seems to be some interesting content. I would like to see more reviews and information. I realize the magazine is still young and with time will increase the numbers of these things. Also the discounts they offer are only to a select few companies none of which are really in my area. I think in time this idea will flourish I just think it is going to take some time for this idea to make it to fruition. I recommend you check out their <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/beerconnoisseur/the-beer-connoisseur-club-discover-the-world-of-be">Kick starter campaign</a> and judge for your self an also check out their <a href="http://www.beerconnoisseur.com/">website</a> to form your own opinion. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.</span></div>

I went to the <a href="http://www.thegstone.com/">Grey Stone</a> last night and had a blast. The beer was good and had some great conversations. One of our conversation was fantasy football because most of the people I was there with were in leagues. Today I had one of my drafts. Actually I am still drafting now. After an hour we are still barely into the second round and that's with almost nobody drafting. We did an offline draft on Facebook and it moved like a snail and was impossible to keep track of anything. My other draft took around an hour and a half and moved very smoothly. My suggestion for fantasy football is to always draft online and plan things ahead on time. When you wait until the last minute things suck and people complain. Back to the Grey Stone. This is probably Pottsville's most upscale bar and restaurant. They always have a really diverse group of bottled beer that at least a couple of the beers I haven't ever had. The building is almost all stone and they have different pieces of art up for sale in the upstairs bar. This is where I like to hang out. Its a nice comfortable area with about a 10 seat bar. They have two beers on tap. I had five different bottles. First I had Point Nude Beach Wheat which was a nice easy going down beer and a great way to start off the night. Next up was Samuel Smith Organic Chocolate Stout. This one was the first chocolate stout I had that had a super strong chocolate taste. I mean it tasted like Hershey's syrup. Next up was Superfuzz Blood Orange Pale which was really good. Next I had Kutztown Lagerbier which was very good. This and Blood Orange were my favorites. Lastly I had Carlsberg. This was my least favorite. All in all a great night out and 5 more beers off my list. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.<br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yesterday I went up to Dorko's for Monday night trivia and had four new Abita beers. The trivia was good even though we didn't fair so well. Today was the first day I had off since the kids went back to school. I debated go golfing today but when that didn't pan out I took it as a sign from God that I need to go to the casino and gamble, and eat and drink at a brewery. I decided on the Sands casino and <a href="http://www.thebrewworks.com/">Bethlehem Brew Works</a>. My first stop was the Sands because Bethlehem Brew Works didn't open until 11 am. The casino wasn't that great but still not horrible. Then I headed off to the Brewery. The parking wasn't that great but it was easy to find. I had Fegley's Hefeweizen and Zomerbier along with a chicken hummus wrap. The wrap was almost perfect. The sauce was a little heavy but the chicken was cooked perfectly and the hummus was excellent. The overall decor of the pub was modern and clean. Beers were served in proper glasses. They had some merchandise, bottles, and growlers. I picked up a mixed six pack. The Hefeweizen was cloudy with a yellow color and lively carbonation and served with a lemon. The head was nice and fizzy with a middle tongue hit and a clove aroma and overall excellent taste. The Zomerbier was a Belgian garnished with an orange that had a nice sweetness and a golden color. It had a small head, long finish and little carbonation. It had a good flavor and I enjoyed both beers thoroughly. Overall this brew pub had goods and not so goods. The service was a little slow but not horrible. The staff was friendly and helpful. The prices were reasonable. I would have to say out of all the places I visited it was about mid level. The staff wasn't as knowledgeable as Iron Hill but they did have bottles for take out. They beat out Troegs because they had a nice selection of beers from other breweries. The food was good which is about the same as all the other brew pubs I have eaten at. Next time I would like to try out the Allentown location. I was also a little disappointed that I wasn't asked about joining the rewards club. Thanks for reading and as always please drink responsibly.</span><br />

<div style="line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 14px; margin-top: 14px; vertical-align: top;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Bethlehem is now a vibrant downtown, the Christmas City, a place to go for a thriving culture. But it used to be marked by the workers of Bethlehem Steel. This city would not be what it is without the labor and toil put in by the workers of the Steel. If you live in the area, you can probably go back a generation or two and find someone who put in hard days at the Steel. When we opened the Bethlehem Brew Works, we wanted to pay homage and show our respect for those who came before us while paving the way for Bethlehem’s future. And we’re glad to see that we managed to capture the essence of Bethlehem’s steel industry in our 250-seat brewpub.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I took a little break because I have been so busy the last week. I was up at Dorko's the past two Monday nights and won the 50/50 both times and the first week we won trivia but then came up a little short the next week. Both times I had a great time as usual. Today I was up in Lewisburg and stopped by Weis and got a real nice haul of local breweries. I really wish that the <a href="https://www.weismarkets.com/">Weis</a> by me carried the variety that this one does. I also got a Carolina Reaper pepper while I was in Sunbury and had it on pizza and I will tell you it is very hot. I had stopped down in Philly to a long time friends house and had a bunch of really good beers. The best of which was Heady Topper from the Alchemist. This beer rates number one on Beer Advocate and is extremely sought after. My friend was kind enough to have one with me and have two from the case he had. This beer is supper smooth and super fresh. The citrus aroma instantly permeates through and anyone can pick up the beautiful aroma. Everyone who he gave beers to that are fans of craft beers loved it. I posted pictures of it and everyone who is in my beer of the month club were extremely jealous. I got a lot of information from one beer of the month club member telling me to keep it in the fridge for 10 weeks and it will change color. So taking his advice I am saving one for ten weeks and the trying again then. The other I shared with my cousin who really appreciated it. By far out of all the beers I have drank I have never seen the reaction I have gotten with this one from so many people. If you like IPAs I can't imagine why you wouldn't love this one. I am so thankful that my friend took the extra time to go to Vermont and pick this one up. I wish I could describe more about this beer but you just have to have it to understand how good it really is. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The Alchemist is a small, family run brewery specializing in fresh, unfiltered IPA. We are currently focused </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">on brewing one beer perfectly – Heady Topper, an American Double IPA.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0.7rem;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We love hops – that’s why our flagship Double IPA, Heady Topper, is packed full of them. Heady Topper</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> was designed to showcase the complex flavors and aromas these flowers produce. The Alchemist has </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">been brewing Heady Topper since 2003. This Double IPA is not intended to be the strongest or most bitter </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Topper with a proprietary blend of six hops – each imparting its own unique flavor and aroma. Take a big sip</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> of Heady and see what hop flavors you can pick out. Orange? Tropical Fruit? Pink Grapefruit? Pine? Spice?</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> There is just enough malt to give this beer some backbone, but not enough to take the hops away from the </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For eight years, Heady Topper was served on tap exclusively at our seven barrel brewpub in downtown</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Waterbury. In early 2011 we built the Alchemist Cannery, a 15 barrel brewery and canning line, for the </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> 15 barrel batches. We never hold back inventory, and we move all of our beer weekly in a concerted effort to</span><br />

On Tuesday I had to make a trip to Wyomissing to take the kids to the dentist. While I was down there I visited my sister. While we were out she suggested going to check out a craft beer store and of course I said yes. We went to <a href="http://www.barleymowbeer.com/">The Barley Mo</a>w and I am so glad I did. They had a great selection and a really great decor. My only regret was not having more time there and not getting pictures to do a proper review. I am certain that I will stop by again and when I do I will definitely write a fantastic review of this place. Also this week I made up to my favorite trivia place<a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dorkos-Cafe/191666540846039"> Dorko's</a> in Mount Carmel. The trivia was great as usual and even though we put up a great fight we fell short but still had a great time and put up a great effort for only having three people on our team. Also nobody got the cash question right so the pot continues to grow. Out of the group of beers I got from Barley Mow I decided to try <a href="http://freewillbrewing.com/beers/citra-pale/">Citra Pale Ale from free will brewing company</a>. It had an off white average head. The body was orange and has with no visible carbonation and an unfiltered look. The aroma was citrus and there was a medium bitterness. The head lacing was nice and the dissipation was average. The body lacing was nice with a back tongue hit and a long finish. The flavor was medium an I enjoyed this beer and was glad to add a new Pennsylvania Brewery to my list of beers I tried.<br />

<h1 style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Wednesday before work I stopped by one of my favorite places (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/BrewersOutletPottsville">Brewer's Outlet in Pottsville)</a> to by beer because my wife wanted something we could drink together. I decided to pick up a variety pack by <a href="http://www.ubuale.com/">Lake Placid</a>. Then I got to thinking that my beer of the month club didn't pick the case we were going to try. So I told them I got this one and we decided to split it. This case works out perfect it has 3 different beer which divides up nicely between the four of us and still leaves me with two of each so both me and my wife can try a full beer each. I decided that I will do another little plaque for this brewery because I really like there logo and I think it would make a nice addition to my collection plus its not to hard to do. </span></span></span></h1>
<h1 style="background-color: white;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: small; font-weight: normal;">The first beer of this collection I decided to have was <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Lake-Placid-Pub-and-Brewery/101150649986">Ubu Ale</a>. The head is very small with a light brown color and a fizzy appearance. The is dissipating quickly. The aroma is very malty and the initial temperature is 52.9 degrees Fahrenheit. The body color is dark and has a ruby tinge to the brown color with lively carbonation. The mouth feel is dry and there is a caramel taste with a nice bite. The finish is average and it had a nice pour. The flavor is moderate and there is virtually no head or body lacing.</span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: small; font-weight: normal;"> This beer is classified as an English Ale and reminds me of a good stout. I enjoyed this beer and think this is a great beer for the fall and winter seasons.</span></h1>

My second beer from this variety pack is the Indian Pale Ale. One of my fellow beer of the month club members had this beer already. She said she enjoyed it but thought it had a lot of carbonation and it reminded her of a soda. When I had the beer it had a light brown to off white average sized head that is fizzy and held for a decent amount of time. The aroma was fruity but for me it had a light bitterness and a very subtle carbonation. The body color was amber and clear. The tongue hit is toward the middle and the mouth feel is dry. The finish is average to long in length. The pour was nice and the lacing was fair to good. The taste was a slight citrus. Overall I thought it had less carbonation then Ubu and a lighter flavor. I thought it was a weaker IPA but I tend to favor that in my IPAs. The flavor was good and easy to drink and I would consider it a good go to beer year round and especially summer and spring.</div>

The last beer I am having out of the Camp Collection is Barkeater Amber. The head was small to average with a light brown fizzy appearance and it dissipated quickly. The initial temperature at first sip was 55.6 degrees Fahrenheit. The body was clear with a red color and little to no visible carbonation. The taste was and aroma had a sweetness to it that reminded me of a sweet bourbon but not with a boozy taste. The finish was short with a watery taste that has a tongue hit that moves from middle to back. There was no visible head or body lacing. Overall this would be my favorite out of the collection. It had nice flavor, no noticeable bitterness and a definite drink ability. As for the Camp Collection as a whole I thought it was a good case at a reasonable price. The beers were good and it was a good mix that really worked for me and gave me three different beers that allow you to experience three vastly different styles. If you haven't tried anything from Lake Placid you can't go wrong with this one. Thanks for ready and as always drink responsibly.</div>

As the Lake Placid Pub & Brewery grew in popularity, the demand for the beers we produced increased exponentially. In November of 2001, the LPP&B expanded to a second brewing facility in Plattsburgh NY. Located on Military Turnpike and known as The Lake Placid Craft Brewing Company the new facility quadrupled our brewing capacity and allowed us to bottle our beers for the first time. The 13,000 sq. ft. facility was located just 50 miles northeast of Lake Placid and had a 15-barrel brewery and bottling system as well as a tasting area and gift shop. Even after the brewery installed three new 60bl fermentation tanks in 2009, we were still unable to brew enough beer to satisfy demand. In January of 2010 we closed this brewery and are now brewing all bottled beer at FX Matt Brewing in Utica, NY. This partnership has allowed us to expand both our product line and the areas where our beer is available. </div>

This is an American-style amber ale that has been around for many years, in fact it was one of our first brews ever. It is one of two amber ales that we regularly brew at the pub, this being the drier hoppier of the two. Barkeater Amber is brewed with a variety of crystal malts which gives its red color and slightly sweet malt flavor. It has four hop additions, with the last addition being a relatively large addition of Willamette hops. This beer has a fairly dry finish and has been a local favorite since 1996.</td></tr>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 22px;"><span style="background-color: white;">Currently I decided to work on a couple of reviews at once but now I am trying to put more time into them. I try and do some research ahead of time and for some it will involve days of drinking and prep to develop a review I am happy with and tha has enough information but not too much to get disgusted with. I had a bottle of <a href="https://www.facebook.com/starrhillbrewery">Starr Hill The Love</a> in the fridge since Monday and it was calling my name so I figured it would be good to review tonight. The initial temperature upon drinking was 53.5 degrees Fahrenheit. There was no carbonation and no head lacing. The head was large, dissipated quickly, was fizzy and white in color. The mouth feel was watery and the body was golden and hazy and produced no lacing. The aroma was perfume and it had hints of clove but not overpowering. I didn't taste a strong banana taste like I did in Yuengling's Summer Wheat. This has a much lighter flavor that I prefer. The finish is average and the tongue hit was towards the front. Out of all the</span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #4e2405; line-height: 18px;">hefewe</span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #4e2405; line-height: 18px;">izens</span><span style="color: #4e2405; line-height: 18px;"> I tried this was definitely one of the better ones. Wheat beers aren't for everyone but they are one of my favorite style. I feel they are more crisp and clean than IPAs but have better flavor and a touch of sweetness compared to lagers and pilsners. I would strongly recommend this beer as a good base line beer for this style of beer. As always thanks for reading and please drink responsibly.</span></span></span></div>

Monday I stopped by <a href="https://www.weismarkets.com/">Weis</a> in Pottsville and picked up a mixed six pack that included two beers from <a href="http://www.beachhausbeer.com/beer.php">East Coast Beer Company</a> out of New Jersey. I chose Beach Haus and Cruiser IPA. Me and my wife tried both of them but since I drank most of Beach Haus and just a little of the other one I reviewed. This beer had a large head that dissipated pretty quickly. It has a little bit of a bite to it. I had this beer in a pilsner glass. The lacing was beautiful and a pine aroma. The initial temperature was 60.4 which was a little warm for my taste but it still delivered an easy drink ability. The tongue hit was towards the back with a lively carbonation and a straw color. The head was white and fizzy with a clear body clarity. The flavor was light with an average finish length and a watery mouth feel. The body lacing was excellent and overall it was a decent beer just nothing especially fantastic about it. I would drink it again but at a colder temperature next time. I think it is a good summer beer and session beer. I really like the art work and names of the beers from East Coast and its nice to see a beer from New Jersey in the store. I think this was my first beer from New Jersey too.<br />

Over the last year I have been really bad at putting out new posts. After I well deserved vacation I am now ready and energized to start writing again. I am going to start out slow. Hopefully one review a week. If anyone has something they want me to try and review let me know otherwise I will pick something out of my fridge or at a local store and try and find out as much information I can to write an interesting article. If you need information found or you have information you want to get out let me know and I'll do my best to either find that information or get it out to the public. Hope to see you back reading and hoping to interact with more of you. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly. Oh by the way I have been writing up swim workouts for a friend of mine so I'll post them on here too.<div>

So about a week ago or so I got an email from someone at SYNEK and decided to look into what they had sent me. Now I get emails from different places and some I do something about and some I don't. This looked interesting so I figured I'd check it out. This company has a <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1620669801/synek-any-beer-ever-made-fresh-on-your-counter">Kickstarter</a> going on right now to get financing for this project. So you may be wondering what is so different about this dispenser. Well it takes a bladder that can be filled with any beer and the beer remains fresh for up to 30 days. For me this is a great idea because the bladder is only a gallon. So its not a huge commitment to a large volume as in a keg and it remains fresh unlike a growler. The dispenser is small and sits on a counter top and it keeps beer at an optimal temperature. I've written about problems I had with other dispensers and that was one of my main reasons for not home brewing. This dispenser would also help to solve that problem by giving you other means by which to ferment your brew. Now I have not tried out this product but I would love to get my hands on one when it comes out. I think this would be a great addition to any man cave or even kitchen. I am really hoping this project gets funded and it makes it to market because I think it would be a great innovation for the beer world. If you are looking for more information you can check out their <a href="http://www.syneksystem.com/press/">press release.</a><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 19.1875px;">Its been a while since the last time I wrote. Yes I have been lazy but that is mainly because I have been busy with other stuff and all this week I work early so I have some time to write at night (hopefully). So tonight I decided to try a Susquehanna Brewing Company Pumpkin Ale. I had gotten it from one of my co workers last week and haven't had a chance to drink it yet so I figured tonight was as goood of a night as any. Sadly I did not make it to trivia tonight so I won't have any information about how that went. </span></span><br />
Onto the review. My first taste came in at a temperature of 47.2 degrees with an average head of 1/2" in a pint glass. The pour was nice with a fizzy off white head that dissipated quickly and had virtually no head lacing. The beer had a medium carbonation and a flat clarity with an orange body color. The aroma was spicy and the flavor was pumpkin pie. The flavor was light and easy to drink with an average finish length and a watery mouth feel. The tongue hit was towards the back and there was virtually no body lacing. Overall I would rate this as a decent representation of a pumpkin ale. It wasn't to crazy and it went down easily. If your new to pumpkin beers this would be a great one to start with. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.<br />

<span style="background-color: #fcf9f6; color: #7f2927; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.1875px;">Susquehanna Brewing Company’s Pumpkin Ale combines rich crystal and fine 2-row malts with natural pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and perhaps a secret spice or two to create this seasonal treat. It is full of flavor yet very drinkable at 4.8% alcohol by volume. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: #fcf9f6; color: #7f2927; font-family: normal, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.1875px;">For my review this week I decided to go with <a href="http://www.sbcbeer.com/beer_product/oktoberfest-seasonal">Susquehanaa Brewing Company's Oktoberfest</a>. It been somewhat crazy week since my last review. I got to go golfing with my Dad and brother which was a lot of fun. I played trivia up at <a href="http://www.dorkos.com/">Dorko's</a> in Mount Carmel which was a great time (I won the 50/50) but we didn't win trivia. I also had the best wings ever. They were the cooks special recipe called garbage sauce. My friend had already tried Susquehanna Brewing Companies Oktoberfest and he said it was his favorite Oktoberfest of the season so I was really excited to try it. However, as usual I was a little disappointed. It wasn't a bad Oktoberfest it was just a little boozy for my taste. He said he didn't notice any of that when he had his so its hard to tell if it was just one that was off or not. I had mine at a temperature of 49.3 degrees in a pint glass. It had a nice pour with a small 1/2" head that had a foamy light brown appearance. The head dissipated quickly and offered virtually no head lacing. The carbonation was soft with a normal clarity and an orange body color. The aroma was a mixture of barley, grain and citrus with an alcohol taste. The flavor was light with an average finish length and a watery mouth feel. The tongue hit was towards the back with fair body lacing. Overall I would rank this Oktoberfest towards the middle of my list because it was different from the norm and I might have just had an off bottle. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.</span><br />

Its been a little time since the last time I got to write. I haven't been feeling that great but I started feeling a little better so I figured it was time to start writing again. As for trivia at <a href="http://www.dorkos.com/">Dorko's</a> this week it was just two of us from the RZA so we joined the team of O'Brien which worked really well for the team last time. Sadly however it did not work so well for us and we fell short and suffered another loss. But I tossed back some Leinenkugel Summer Shadys and enjoyed my time out. A friend of mine picked up a case of <a href="http://www.dogfish.com/brews-spirits/the-brews/seasonal-brews/punkin-ale.htm">Dogfish Head Punkin Al</a>e and I really wanted to try this one. It had a real nice pour with a large 1 1/2" head with a foamy off white appearance that dissipated slowly. The head lacing was good and the carbonation was little. The color was gold with a flat clarity and a light flavor. The aroma had a grainy quality to it with a light allspice and pumpkin flavor. The finish was average with a dry mouth feel and a back tongue hit with excellent body lacing. Overall I thought it was pretty good but with how much I was anticipating drinking this beer I was a little disappointed. Its not that it isn't a really good beer I guess that I was just expecting more. It wasn't really boozy and it wasn't really spicy. I would say its how a pumpkin beer is supposed to taste when its not overdone and when let to warm up more of the flavors do come out. For me though I was expecting something over the top for the style. So I would place it on my upper middle of the road as far as the pumpkin beers I have drank. Still I would recommend drinking this beer and judging all others from this standard. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.</div>

<span style="background-color: white;">A full-bodied brown ale with smooth hints of pumpkin and brown sugar. We brew our Punkin Ale with pumpkin meat, brown sugar and spices. As the season cools, this is the perfect beer to warm up with.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Punkin Ale is named after the seriously off-centered southern Delaware extravaganza <a href="http://www.punkinchunkin.com/" target="_blank">Punkin Chunkin</a> (check out some of these <a href="http://science.discovery.com/videos/punkin-chunkin/" target="_blank">Discovery Channel videos</a> of Punkin Chunkin, you gotta see it to believe it!). In fact, Punkin Ale made its debut as it claimed first prize in the 1994 Punkin Chunkin Recipe Contest. Yes, that was a full 6 months before we even opened our doors for business!</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Punkin Chunkin has grown in size and scale, with pumpkins now being hurled more than 4,000 feet through the air! If you come down to see if for yourself, drop by and visit us.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Since its debut, we've brewed Punkin Ale each and every fall. It is released right around Sept. 1 each year. When you find it, grab some extra because it's usually gone by Thanksgiving.</span></div>

Monday night I was up at team trivia at Dokro's. The RZA did not fair very well getting trounced and finishing in last. None of the questions really killed us. We just missed ones here and there by the end they really added up. Still it was a solid night. So today I went to the Beer Stop in Hazleton and wrote a review on that and now I am enjoying <a href="http://www.sauconycreekbrewing.com/news.htm">Captain Pumpkin's Maple Mistress Imperial Pumpkin Ale</a> and some pumpkin pie. This is another beer brewed in Pennsylvania. It is brewed by Saucony Creek in Kutztown, PA. This is one of the first two beers to be brewed in bottles by Saucony Creek which started brewing in bottles around August 20, 2013. The pour on the beer was nice but didn't produce much head. It was roughly 1/4" with a fizzy off white appearance and it dissipated quickly. My initial first sip of this beer was in a pint glass at 48.9 degrees. The beer has a nice orange color with normal clarity and lively carbonation. It has a nice bouquet with a sweet bourbon smell and taste that is nicely accented by a cinnamon flavor. The flavor is moderate with a long finish length and a dry mouth feel and a middle tongue hit. I did not notice any head or body lacing. Overall I would put this close to the top of my list of Pumpkin Ales. It went nicely with my pumpkin pie and it had a great flavor. If you love high ABV pumpkins you will love this one. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly. <br />

Every fall when the winds change and the leafs turn to crimson and orange, the ferocious temper of pirate Anne Bonney, crew mate and mistress to Captain Jack Rackham would storm Spanish treasure ships off the coast of Cuba and Hispaniola. Flying their famous skull-and-crossed-daggers flag, the two lovers and their crew were victorious and successful pirates in the Caribbean. Later another lover boarded the ship, pirate Mary Read. Both Anne Bonney and Mary Read were known for their violent tempers and ferocious fighting, and they shared a reputation as "fierce hell cats." Their fellow crewmembers knew that -- in times of action -- no one else was as ruthless and bloodthirsty as these two women were. Captain Jack, nicknamed "Calico Jack" for his love of colorful cotton clothing, was a well-known pirate in those days, but his reputation has survived through the ages primarily because of these two infamous women pirates on his crew. </div>
<div class="style1" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; color: #201c13; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
In late October 1720, Rackkam's ship was anchored off Point Negril, Jamaica, the pirates celebrating recent victories in their typical hard-drinking tradition. Suddenly a British Navy sloop -- the man-o-war Albion, headed by Captain Jonathan Barnet -- surprised them. The drunken male pirates quickly hid below deck, leaving only Anne and Mary to defend their ship. The women yelled at their pirate mates to "come up, you cowards, and fight like men," and then angrily raged against them, killing one and wounding several others. But the women were eventually overwhelmed by the British Navy, and the entire crew was captured and taken to Jamaica to stand trial. </div>
<div class="style1" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; color: #201c13; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">
Captain Jack and the male members of his crew were tried <a href="x-apple-data-detectors://0" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; color: #201c13; font-family: inherit;" x-apple-data-detectors-result="0" x-apple-data-detectors-type="calendar-event" x-apple-data-detectors="true">on November 16</a>, 1720, and were sentenced to hang. Anne was allowed to visit her lover in his cell before his execution, and instead of the consoling, loving words he was undoubtedly expecting, her scathing comments live on throughout history: "Had you fought like a man, you need not have been hang'd like a dog." </div>
<div style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; color: #201c13; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
<span class="style1" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; font-family: inherit; font-size: 16px;">Anne and Mary were tried one week after Rackham's death and were also found guilty. But at their sentencing, when asked by the judge if they had anything to say, they replied, "Mi'lord, we plead our bellies." Both were pregnant from Captain Jack, and since British law forbade killing an unborn child, their sentences were stayed temporarily.<br style="font-family: inherit;" /></span></div>

Their legacy inspired us to brew an equally ferocious Imperial Pumpkin Ale brewed with pirate rum spices. We added a touch of fall flavor with butternut squash and natural maple syrup.</div>

<br />
Today I made a trip to Hazleton, PA to stop at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Beer-Stop-West-Hazleton/160833277276976?ref=ts&fref=ts">The Beer Stop</a>. If you were not specifically going to Hazleton to go here you would probably never find it. It jut has a little sign on the outside and it is on one of the main roads in Hazleton. However, It is definitely worth making the trip to. I first heard about this place from one of my coworker and another one of my coworkers said how good it was. You can read the reviews about this place on <a href="http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/16599/view=beerfly">Beer Advocate</a> and <a href="http://www.ratebeer.com/p/the-beer-stop-west-hazleton/12854/">Rate Beer</a>. I listed everything I bought there and the prices they were. They had a fantastic selection and really reasonable prices. Besides singles they also had six packs, growler fills and some beer glasses for sale. Once you walk in you are greeted by a huge selection of bottles on your right. Directly in front of you and to the left are six packs and on the left once you come in the door there is a growler fill station. They also have another room off to the left side with more beer in it. When I went in there wasn't anyone working in the part of the store that had all the beer. So when I was ready to check out I just ring a bell. They have some information cards by some of the beers too. Overall they have a fantastic selection and great prices, but it would be nice if they had someone in the beer section when I came in. I will say though that their hours of operation are fantastic. I got there at 9:30 am and found out that they were open since 7:00 am and this is on a Tuesday. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.<br />

Since my last post I have started watching all the past episodes of Breaking Bad and have become addicted to the show. I have also been doing various beer research on distribution systems in the US after watching Beer Wars on Netflix. Other than that nothing to crazy. Tonight I decided to try another Oktoberfest. This time I decided on <a href="http://brooklynbrewery.com/">Brooklyn Oktoberfest</a>. I'd rate this one about upper middle of the pack. It wasn't as sweet as Victory nor was it as bitter as Beck's. It has a taste that's somewhere in between but its where I like it. I had it in a pint glass served at 48.2 degrees. The beer poured nicely with a fizzy off white head that dissipated slowly and had good lacing. The body color was orange with a normal clarity and a light amount of carbonation. The aroma and taste were a roasted barley. The flavor was light with an average finish length and a dry mouth feel. The tongue hit was towards the middle with good body lacing. Overall I enjoyed this beer and would definitely have another. As always thanks for reading and drink responsibly.<br />

BROOKLYN OKTOBERFEST</h1>

<h2 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">When Crown Prince Ludwig of Bavaria wanted to celebrate his wedding engagement in 1810, he did what any good Bavarian prince would – he threw a beer festival. Both the festival and the special beer served there became known as Oktoberfest. Brewed from the finest German malt and hops, Brooklyn Oktoberfest is true to the original style, fullbodied and malty, with a bready aroma and light, brisk hop bitterness.<strong><br /></strong><strong><br /></strong><strong>Awards</strong><strong>Style:</strong> <em>Märzen/Oktoberfest</em></span></h2>

I went golfing for the first time in a couple months at White Birch Golf Course in Barnesville, PA. I've golfed there before and typically enjoy it. Its an easy course but still a lot of fun. Today, however, was not as great as usual. It was really crowded to my surprise and the greens were just aerated. So to salvage my day off I figured I would have a <a href="http://www.becks.com/#/en/home">Beck's Oktoberfest Lager</a> and write about it. Beck's is owned by Anheuser-Busch so it is not easy to find much information put out by the company but I will put as much information as I can find in the review.<br />
I had this beer in a pint glass and my first taste was at 56.7 degrees. I enjoyed this beer with a turkey sandwich with honey mustard on wheat. The head was large at about 1 1/2". The head was foamy with a light brown appearance and it dissipated quickly. The lacing for both head and body were good. The carbonation was little with a normal clarity and an amber body color. The taste was burnt with a floral aroma. It had a slight bitterness at start a smooth middle and then the finish brought back some of the bitterness. The flavor was light with an average finish length and a dry mouth feel with a back tongue hit. Overall it was an enjoyable beer that differed from the other Oktoberfest that I have recently sampled. The other two had more of a sweetness to them and this one had more bitterness. Overall I would rank this one in the middle of all the Oktoberfest that I have had. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.<br />

I had a couple days off in a row I went to Gettysburg, PA and while I was down there I stopped of at <a href="https://www.wegmans.com/">Wegmans in Mechanicsburg</a>. This is by far the greatest grocery store I have ever been in and the thing that really sets it apart is the beer selection. The selection is on par with places that just sell beer but the prices are fairly close to other grocery store prices. I got a make your on six pack for $11.99. The beers I got in the six pack were Bell's Oberon Ale, Victory Festbier, Founders Porter, Brooklyn Brewing Company Oktoberfest, Southern Tier 2X Stout, and Rogue Hazlenut Brown Nectar. What really sets Wegmans apart though is the ability to see almost every beer they have in stock and the prices of these beers from your home on their website. This idea seems so simple and I wonder every day why other stores don't do the same.<br />
<br />
To continue on my tradition of doing seasonal beers for fall I decided to have <a href="http://www.victorybeer.com/beers/festbier/">Victory Festbier</a> while I was drafting my Fantasy Football Team.I had this beer in a pint glass with a bottle temperature at 47.3 degrees and a first taste temperature at 53.5 degrees. The pour was nice and the head came out at an average 3/4" head that was off-white and fizzy. The head and body lacing were fair with little to no carbonation. The head dissipated quickly and had an aroma of broth, pine and grain with a taste of sherry. The flavor was light with a watery mouth feel and a middle tongue hit. This was my first Oktoberfest of the year so I don't want to judge to quickly but it was unique in taste. Only the season will tell how it ends up ranking.Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.<br />

So its been an interesting week. On Monday I went up to <a href="http://www.dorkos.com/">Dorko's</a> in Mount Carmel for team trivia. My trivia team the RZA didn't fair so well starting behind and never really catching up but still the night had some real bright spots. Both me and fellow teammate Jason Burgess won the between round question and I hit for $250 on a scratch off. I also answered the question put out for a t shirt correctly and ended up winning that. All in all a pretty good night and any night playing trivia is better than a night not.<br />
<br />
This week I stopped by <a href="https://www.weismarkets.com/">Weis</a> in Pottsville to restock the beer fridge and start sampling some of the fall season brews. I prefer to first focus in on the more local fairs so I picked up a six pack of <a href="http://lionbrewery.com/home/brewery/our-products/">Stegmaier Pumpkin Ale</a> produced by the Lion Brewing Company in Wilkes Barre, PA.<br />
<br />
In 1974 Stegmaier was acquired by the Lion Brewing Company when Stegmaier closed its doors. Lion began making Stegmaier's Gold Medal, Porter and Light. Under the Stegmaier name Lion Brewing company also produces a craft series which includes an IPA, white ale and pale ale. They also have three other seasonal beers which are Oktoberfest, Summer Stock Pils, and Winter Warmer.<br />
<br />
On this night I had this Pumpkin Ale in a pint glass. The bottle temperature was 41 degrees amd I had my first taste at 47.4 degrees. The head size was small at about 1/2" with a fizzy off white head appearance. The head lacing was almost non existent and the head dissipated pretty quickly. The carbonation was little with a normal clarity and a gold color. The taste was a cinnamon pumpkin with a honey wheat aroma. The flavor was light with an average finish length and a creamy mouth feel. The tongue hit was towards the back and the body lacing was virtually none. Overall though it is not a bad representation of a pumpkin ale and at its price point it can't be beat. Its ABV is low for the style and for someone just getting into craft beers, this is a great one. You can put forth a small amount of money and get something off the beaten path and that is something rare and worth trying. So thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.<br />
<br />

ABV: 5.50%<br />

I figured it has been a long time since I last posted and it was about time that I started writing again. This time my goal is to write once a week and not to over do it. I am going to focus on new beers that I try and like and want to share with people who read this blog. </div>

So in getting back to blogging I figured I would write about <a href="http://www.sbcbeer.com/">Susquehanna Brewing Companies Pils-Noir</a>. I got a variety pack from <a href="https://www.weismarkets.com/">Weis in Pottsville</a> about a week ago and have tried both the Pils-Noir and the Goldencold Lager. My wife and I both liked the Pils-Noir so I figured I would write about that.<br />

I figured I would add a little something new this time when I wrote this entry. Hopefully from now on I will add a little history about the company. This brewer is another Pennsylvania brewery which I love because it is somewhere close to me so I have the opportunity to visit it. Here are some facts about the brewery that I found interesting and on their web site. <span style="line-height: 19.1875px;">Charles Stegmaier along with his father-in-law, George Baer, founded the Baer and Stegmaier Brewing Co. of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania in 1857. </span><span style="line-height: 19.1875px;">On February 14, 1898, the company was renamed the Susquehanna Brewing Co. </span><span style="line-height: 19.1875px;">he Susquehanna Brewing Co. operated until 1920, when it closed its door due to prohibition. </span><span style="line-height: 19.1875px;">On November 10, 2010, Ed Maier, Mark Nobile, and Ed’s son J. Fred, formed the Susquehanna Brewing Co., Pittston, Pa. Here is their mission and vision statements which I thought were pretty cool. Their mission statement is </span><span style="line-height: 19.1875px;">Susquehanna Brewing Company delivers prosperity and enjoyment to our Northeastern Pennsylvania (NEPA) customers and consumers through our quality, craft beers made locally in an environmentally responsible fashion. Their Vision statement is </span><span style="line-height: 19.1875px;">To have Susquehanna Brewing Company brew some of the most sought after craft beers in Pennsylvania with a reputation that extends nation-wide, make our Pittston brewery a ‘must-see’ place of pride in our community, and enhance the stature of NEPA.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #7f2927; font-family: normal, Times New Roman, Times, serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.1875px;">I had the <a href="http://www.sbcbeer.com/">Pils-Noir</a> in a pilsener glass at a nice 55.3 degree temperature. I paired it with steak, a baked potato, and some broccoli which it went very nicely with. Neither the flavor of the dish nor the beer over powered the other. The beer had a nice pour that produced about a 3" frothy light brown head. The head lacing was good and the head dissipated slowly. It had a medium carbonation with normal clarity and a ruby color. The beer exuded a floral aroma with hints of biscuit and grain. The taste as near as a I can describe was buttery with a hint of bourbon. The first time I had it I remember a more smokey flavor but this time it had very little in the way of smokiness. I will say that the first time I had it it was at a temperature closer to 32 degrees. However, I thought it had a more easy going taste at the warmer temperature. It was very smooth and went down very easily. The flavor was light and the finish length was average with a watery mouth feel. The beer hit the tongue towards the back and it had good body lacing. Overall I thought it was a really great beer that I will definitely enjoy having again shortly provided my wife does not have the last one. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.</span></span></div>

We are pleased to share our innovative black Pilsner, Pils-Noir. Made from Pearl (Winter) barley, malted for us by Munton’s, CaraMalt and Crystal malts, prepared using our unique, husk-free milling process. We then naturally darken the beer using the classic Czech technique of decoction mashing. Hopped with Oregon Willamette, Mt. Hood and Washington hops, and finished with noble Czech Saaz for a fine aroma.</div>

So last night I tried some <a href="http://www.innisandgunn.com/">Innis and Gunn Winter Beer</a>. This stuff was an excellent sipping beer that had just the right amounts of hints of a fine scotch. I've had other oak aged beer and the taste of alcohol over powers the whole beer. This one has just the right amount the makes you want to go back for more. This morning I also drew the name of the winner of the likes for Pounder of the Week and the winner as selected by my wife out of an Army hat was Brad Kelly. Thanks to all who have liked the Facebook page and to everyone who takes the time to read Pounder of the Week. I'm going to add more to this post in the next couple of days but I wanted to get some of this information out post haste so stop back again to read the rest of the review next week. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.<br />

<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Just in time for the cold-weather months ahead, pioneering Scottish craft beer maker, Innis & <span class="il" style="background-color: #ffffcc;">Gunn</span>, debuts its FIRST Porter-Style Brew for the season – <b>Winter Beer 2012</b>. Inspired by a centuries-old beer recipe, Innis &<span class="il" style="background-color: #ffffcc;">Gunn</span>’s CEO Dougal Sharp, discovered the 19<sup>th</sup>-century recipe in the pages of <i>A. Scots Cellar, by Florence Marion McNeill</i>. In those days to make beer, molasses were traditionally used to give depth and sweetness to the brews, but also to create greater viscosity and heaviness in the mouth. The <b>Winter Beer 2012</b> combines this old-fashioned method, along with Innis & <span class="il" style="background-color: #ffffcc;">Gunn</span>’s trademark approach to long, slow maturation resulting in a complex and sweet brew. </span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">“I was reading “A Scots Cellar” by Florence Marion McNeill, a celebrated book on the history and tradition of beer and spirits in Scotland, and came across a brewing recipe, over 100 years old. It incorporated molasses as part of the brewing process by using it to impart beers with great complexity and sweet notes. This is exactly what we wanted to recreate with our very first oak-matured Porter. The new Winter Beer 2012 is definitely one of those beers you would fancy savoring whilst warming by the fireplace on dark winter nights,” says<b> Innis & <span class="il" style="background-color: #ffffcc;">Gunn</span> CEO Dougal Sharp.</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">The <b>Winter Beer 2012 </b>is a rich, complex and malty beer with notes of molasses, fruit and hints of chocolate. The first sip starts with flavors of oak and molasses then develops to reveal a firm and full malty backbone, with traces of orange oil and wood. Roast malts, tobacco smoke and chocolate are also present throughout. This delicious journey ends with a soothing finish like an open fire on a cold day as the roast malts, molasses and hop bitterness fall into balance and linger with occasional hints of the signature Innis & <span class="il" style="background-color: #ffffcc;">Gunn</span> vanilla notes.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">The Innis & <span class="il" style="background-color: #ffffcc;">Gunn</span> <b>Winter Beer 2012</b> is the fourth Limited Edition beer to be released in the US market, and will also be available in Innis & <span class="il" style="background-color: #ffffcc;">Gunn</span>’s Holiday Winter Pack alongside the Innis & <span class="il" style="background-color: #ffffcc;">Gunn</span> Original Flagship and Rum Cask. The <b>Winter Beer 2012</b> will be available for a limited time only in the US and is priced at <b>$10.99<span style="color: red;"> </span></b>for a 4-pack.</span></div>

After checking out <a href="http://www.summitbrewing.com/brews/horizon-red-ale">Summit's website</a> I decided to pair this beer with something spicy. So without the option of going and getting some groceries because the stores are pretty much wiped because of Hurricane Sandy. So I decided to create something with what I had in the fridge and cabinet. I took 10-15 <a href="http://www.tyson.com/Products/Grocery-Section/Frozen.aspx">Tyson</a> boneless buffalo bites and cooked them up. Then I took a pack of <a href="http://www.birdseye.com/vegetable-products/steamfresh-veggie-rich-rice-pasta-blends/brown-wild-rice-with-corn-carrots-peas">Bird's Eye</a> steam fresh wild rice, corn, peas and carrots and heated that up. Then I threw some olive oil in a heated pan and then knocked it back to medium low. I dropped in a can of <a href="http://www.bushbeans.com/en_US/index.jsp">Bush's</a> black beans and then added the chicken and waited a minute and then added the rice mix. I heated it up for about 5 minutes and then put it on a wrap. I then took a taco cheese mix and put it on top and heated that in the microwave for 30 seconds. I took it out put on some romaine lettuce and some <a href="http://www.kensfoods.com/chefs.php">Ken's blue cheese</a> dressing and dug in after sampling my Horizon Red Ale. I will say this beer went very well with this meal and stood tall on its own. If your wondering how I got such a big head on this beer I'll tell you. I was reading some information on some web site today about the perfect pour. So I figured I would try it. You pour the beer horizontally and then swirl the rest of the beer in the bottle and pour it in. When I took my first sniff the aroma was enormous. Overall I would rate this is a really great beer. It is basically an easy going IPA. It has a bitterness that is not over powering but helps to kill some of the heat from dishes. Thanks for reading and as always drink responsibly.<br />
