not all beer is good, not even expensive beer...I've had more than one 10 dollar disgusting beer but never any 1 dollar awesome beers...nonetheless you should stop by this winter....
Sample cup season usually starts sometime around St Patty's day.
it's still going on now in limited circles...looks to be heading toward perpetuity...

I have a Max Pass this year, good for 5 days at K and 5 at Pico. I'll be at K more this year than in a long time. I'll bring some pounders to pass around.

Gonna miss it. Camping up north.
But have some ice cold Headys, Sips, and Night Shift "the 87" in my cooler.
Might have a Founders session or two in there as well.
Kicking myself forgetting about PBR.

Take the 20 minute drive up to Foley Brothers in Brandon (11-5). Or check Terrill St Beverages in Rutland for Prospect, just canned for only the 3rd time.
No beer list on the website yet...

How is Foley? I heard the tasting room has a shitty setup from quite a few people. Unless they are getting it mixxed up with another brewery
We may hit up Otter Creek and Hoppin on the way back. Possibly Foley too i suppose

Mr. Madhatter brew tasting on lawn chairs at the base of Superstar on a sunny spring day: EPIC! Very much appreciated and memorable.

Foley's is small. I've never had a bad experience, but I can see where more than 8 cars they might get overwhelmed. It's just a small tasting room where you can get a pint, a flight or a growler. They don't update their Facebook page all the time, and they don't answer the phone all the time. However the beer (IPAs) can be exceptional when fresh. Usual hours are 11-5 Thurs - Sun (I think) , but check Facebook.
If you're going to go all the way to Otter Creek, might as well go to Fiddlehead, especially if they have something like Second Fiddle.
