Welp... guess I'll take my patronage somewhere else when I'm visiting Cleveland.

For real though: good for them. They grew like crazy the past few years and sold out. It's the dream. Masthead and Fat Heads it is for this guy.
Jackie Os make it up to Cleveland?
No clue... I'm only there like 3 or 4 times a year and I typically look for local stuff while I'm there.

Never heard of them... but they are right there next to the West Side Market. I'm down to give 'em a shot.

I did think it was weird the other day that there was a big deal about Platform beers coming here, yet I don't think I've ever seen their beers on tap.

Maybe I'm not getting to them fast enough. Who knows. But now I'm probably a little less likely to go for them.

I had them at the Winter Beerfest. They had a coffee stout that was decent but it wasn't like I'd go out of my way for it.

They stick to a lot of the "new" stuff... super hazy IPAs, sours, they recently got into the seltzer game, etc. Their saisons are always on point whenever I'm in the tap room, though I rarely see them in cans for purchase.

Hampton Beer Outlet's selection sucks no, since they gave up half their building to Dollar General. Settled on a case of Straub Amber last night.

Hartwood Beer is also kinda close to you and also has decent selection.

Plus McKnight Beer

McKnight beer always had high prices when I stopped in. I'll have to check out Hartwood Beer. :thumb:

I've also heard good things about Joe's Beer Distributor.

But yes, in general, beer selection on Route 8 sucks. Every once in a while Giant Eagle will have a good beer on tap, but I don't always have my growler handy.

Dogfish head slightly mighty... as far as 95 calorie beers are concerned, this one has to be toweard the top of the list.

There are certainly better IPAs out there that I would prefer over it... but if you're looking for a low cal, light option, I'd take it any day.

It's 95 calories compared to:

Miller Lite: 96 calories
Yuengling Light: 99 calories
Corona Light: 99 calories
Michelob Ultra: 95 calories

A get together with my wife's Penn State friends. Which is weird, because nobody lives near there. Closest family is probably Jersey City.

Oktoberfest beers should be popping up soon. It's the most wonderful time of the year.

A co-worker of mine said he tried Sierra Nevada's offering this year. He said last year's was better (which is tough to beat because that was one of the best I've ever tasted), but this year's is pretty good.

What I like about Sierra Nevada is that it's different each year because they find a different German brewery to work with each year.

@MR25, good call on Hartwood Beer. Great selection for such a small store.

@count2infinity, good call on Sierra Nevada. Delicious Oktoberfest.
