After the trifecta of Heavy Seas barleywines last month, I have been on a search for more of these heavy-handed brews…They seem to just mesh perfectly with the end of Winter and transition into Spring and warmer weather.
In York, Pa., a short jaunt from the bustle of the Philadelphia city streets, Fox Ridge Vineyard and Winery is consistently putting out quality, award-winning wines that are the envy of the East Coast.
This brew has been on my beer wishlist since last winter because I have heard so many great things about it. How stoked was I to find it last week, and in a big 22 oz bomber!
A number of wineries have taken root in the southern terminus of Appalachian Mountains. While taking advantage of the rich, fertile soil, these Georgian wineries have seen boom times as of late. Among these wineries is Blackstock Vineyards.
I have sampled the base brew of this collection a couple times in the past, and was pretty impressed with the result. But never before have I been able to taste three different versions of the same beer.

Just over the Delaware state line, in the heart of Pennsylvania’s Mushroom Country, another crop is quickly becoming king: the grape.
Wine is not for Napa Valley alone anymore. With vineyards sprouting up around the country, no land is too harsh for the right kind of grapes. From the Yadkin Valley of North Carolina to the foothills of Sugarloaf Mountain, wines are taking hold and winning over the hearts – and numerous medals offered by sanctioning bodies – of wine connoisseurs across the country, and, indeed, the world.
I hope everyone out there had an awesome Christmas and New Year’s celebration and got everything you asked Santa for! One of the things I asked for (not really, but it has been on my beer wishlist since 2006!) and finally got was this beer!
Baltimore’s Pratt St. Ale House began, inconspicuously enough, in 1788 when 202, 204 and 206 W. Pratt St. were constructed. The Port of Baltimore was still in its infancy, and many of the well-to-do merchants lived close to the port – and their businesses.
