Lightstreet Porter float

Now, I'm not one for dessert but when I saw this on the menu over at Turkey Hill Brewing, well, it's now history.

Beer Gardens

I saw this nice article today in the Times (you haven't reached your browse limit yet have you?) about the resurgence of beer gardens in the city. There's now 54. Perhaps not all pure in the sense of the Bohemian, but still there seems to be more interest lately in getting outside with friends.

You know, we're getting a few of our own up in NEPA too. Both that I've been to (what others are there?) are really sweet: Berwick Brewing Co. has a nice covered beer garden behind the brewery (where else) with a stage on one end and The Backyard Ale House has one behind the bar proper (uncovered so watch those T-storms).

Gee, is this beer blog still active?

Well, it's been about as active the last few months as I've been in this heat today--stuck in my office with no AC, three computers, two phone systems, 8 phones, zero air circulation and no beer.

But, it's quittin' time now (aka The Best Part of Every Day™)

Welcome to the Memorial Day weekend everyone! Try to remember what this is about, be safe and have someone else drive if you've had too much.
