Great Brews at the "Shed" in Vermont
If I can’t be there myself, there’s not much better for BeerAppreciation LLC than to hear from our friends out there looking for craft beer on their vacations, work travels, wanderings. Every once and while I get a message or two from one my fellow appreciators – and it’s great to see what they find and how much they really like it.
Recently one of my newer beer appreciating friends was on a family trip up to Vermont. I, of course, gave him some suggestions before his departure – Rock Art, Otter Creek, and the elusive Lawson’s Liquids. To my delight, I got a message just about every evening from Brian – with his own discoveries. It was great to see him trying new things (see picture!) as well as schooling me on some great Vermont area brews I hadn’t heard of.
Evidently, in addition the events below, he was in the proximity of Lawson’s “Maple Nipple” but was unable to make it work out to take it home, but there’s always next time (and a next great beer)! To all BeerAppreciators – Enjoy the adventure, like Brian, and I’d be happy to hear from you too!
