And so today officially ends my 10 day vacation. In a couple hours I will be back to the grind at my job. This vacation was well needed. And to say it was a good time and relaxing would be an understatement.
I visited a number of breweries (Yards Brewing, Dogfish Head, Weyerbacher Brewing and River Horse Brewing) as well as some brew pubs (Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats and Iron Hill – Maple Shade) on my trip to Pennsylvania. I went to my always favorite bars out in the burbs of Philly (Hulmeville Inn and Blue Dog – Chalfont). And last but certainly not least I got to spend time with my awesome family.
During the entire trip I decided not to take notes on any of the beers I drank in order to do reviews. I just wanted to relax and enjoy. I did however make a list of what I had and will gladly share those with you.
