Ghoulschip Release

Allagash released it's 2nd coolship beer today, Ghoulschip.  This was brewed with pumpkin, pumpkin seeds and molasses, then aged three years in a barrel.  I was able to try this beer this year and last at a local bar, so was really happy there was a 10 bottle limit

Trade 10/28/11

Well, not really a trade, but I received a box from my regular trading partner oach

Scot continues to be the man, this time with the CBS hook-up.  Hard to keep up with this guy sometimes!

Vermont trip

Went to Vermont a few weekends ago.  Visited Burlington and Waterbury.  Didn't take too many pictures but here they are:

Beer sampler at Vermont Pub & Brewery in Burlington

Tower at Magic Hat

Inside Magic Hat in the Tasting Room

Couple of Hill Farmstead single hop IPAs (Rakau and Amarillo) at Blackback Pub in Waterbury

And that's what 2 1/2 cases of Heady Topper looks like!  Unfortunately, not all for me.  Also bought a sweet t-shirt and glass
