I live in NH and still haven't been to their spot, it's such a pain to get to. Luckily they distribute across the state so I can easily get something of theirs but still need to find a way up there at some point.
Schilling rules, their beer is great and the brewery is a very cool/scenic spot and I dig the pizza there too. Notch peak lager in new england though
An interesting article on Schilling and their former CEO’s run as a Republican for their NH congressional district. A thoughtful discourse on the risk of intertwining personal politics with business. https://www.goodbeerhunting.com/blo...lling-beer-company-in-littleton-new-hampshire
Schilling, Deciduous, and Stoneface are my top 3 with Spyglass an honorable mention. Always cool seeing NH breweries get some recognition being surrounded by MA, VT, and ME.
Taking a break from alcohol for the next few weeks while I’m in an outpatient program for depression. I’ve abstained from drinking before and haven’t noticed an improvement in my mental health but we’ll see. Anywho, definitely gonna miss drinking with friends.
Between this and Sierra Nevada bringing back their Oktoberfest collab it’s going to be a great year for festbiers/märzens
I’m unfortunately going to buy up all the stock because I live next door to one of the biggest liquor stores in MA
First beer in about 6 months. Tallboy of 7Venth Sun Headbanger IPA 7Venth Sun hands down the best brewery in Tampa Bay.
I know it was a long time ago but they also sued an employee over a non compete clause too. They’re really ruthless, shitty humans. https://www.goodbeerhunting.com/sig...ut-over-toppling-goliaths-non-compete-lawsuit
After reading Barrel Aged Stout and Selling Out, it's crazy how many of those breweries AB bought up in droves in the early-mid 2010s after Goose Island, and how many of them have just now been offloaded with this sale (i believe 4 or 5 of these iirc)
Currently enjoying a Cigar City Brewing Jai Alai IPA. Probably the most popular craft in Tampa Bay. Jai Alai is the only local craft beer you can find in most convenience stores.
