    So far tonight I've enjoyed a North Coast Pranqster (amazing), Red Sky At Night Saison Ale (very good) and a Great Divide Hoss (very good).

    I haven't tapped into the Breckenridge Christmas Ale, Red Sky at Night Imperial Stout or the Southern Tier Mokah yet. Probably will enjoy those tomorrow.

    Last night had a bottle of Alesmith Speedway Stout that I've had for about a year and a half, was amazing. Although I've been drinking quite a bit of beers out of my stash and it's dwindling down quickly. Today I have a bomber of Arrogant Bastard and a 4 pack of Founders Breakfast Stout for watching football.

    Had a Northern Harvest which was outstanding. Wet hops plucked from the bine are the best.

    Also had a Mothers Milk Maibock which was decent.

    I love Speedway Stout and always have a bottle of it on hand. Kinda like a rotating stash with that one. I do have a bottle of Alesmith Decadence since 2005. (10th year Anniversary Ale) Not sure when I'm going to open that.

    I had a few Victory Storm Kings the other night. I forgot how good they were for being just 9%.

    On a sad note the Greg Koch book signing I was going to attend tomorrow has been cancelled. Damn !!!

    I would try the World Market in Canton. I haven't found a very good source for craft beers in Dover/Philly. The only bar relatively close that could POSSIBLY have something like this is the Towpath Tavern in Bolivar.

    Will be enjoying one of these tonight, courtesy of Curly J.

    Yeah no kidding. The early games today have been bruuuutal. Looking forward to two mid day games, hope the night games make up for it.
