20% of growler fills and tons of beers (some damn good ones!) up to 30% off. We have a lot of winter beers and christmass beers left that we need to get rid of...some really good beers!
I work on Thursday and Friday night this week so say hi if you are in!

Got any Singletrack ale? Might be Troegs?
Or other bike inspired brew?
I read an oatmeal/java's supposed to be good. _________________ Pedal, b*tches!! |

We may have some of the Singletrack Ale left...not sure. We should have some Flying Dog Tire Bite Ale in stock.
For Stouts it's all about The Czar from Avery or The Yeti from Great Divide. If you have the $$ Rouge makes an Imperial Stout that is the best stout that I have ever had. It's $15 for a 22oz bottle though.
We also have Shakespeare Stout from Rouge on tap right now...but it is going fast.

Obviously you work there but are you one of the owners? I have heard they are local to the area. |

I'm drinking Left Hand's Milk Stout right now from the wonderful Halftime Beverage.
I'll have to stop in soon and you can give me a personal recommendation, Tom (this one's not too ballsy for a stout). |

I can give you some VERY good stout recommendations...I have to stop in tomorrow and see when I am on again...It's my 2nd job so 8-16 hours a week is all I get.
Alan Daniels is the sole owner of halftime. I wish I was...

I was just in there today & picked up some good stuff. I never tried it before so my decision was in the guys hands. Not sure who it was but he made a good choice. Ellie's Brown Ale (Avery). It is a great beer but I was actually looking for something a little more crisp and a little less dark. I usually like the amber ales & pale ales. |

Boont Amber from Anderson Valley for sure. Best Amber out there. For Pale Ales check out the Flying Dog Pale Ale. Or even better...get the Rouge Juniper Pale Ale. Good stuff!

If your looking for crisp then try Flying Dog - Old Scratch Amber. It is a Lager instead of an Ale so it will be much crisper than most other amber beers.

Boont is good stuff. I also have tried the Rogue amber ales & red tail ales which are all great. I was driving by today & stopped back in before I read you replies, I ended up trying another one of Avery's brews. I picked up the White Rascal. I have heard a lot of good remarks about Avery beers & so far the tatse is great, I may just have my new brew. |

I live in Poughkeepsie & work in Fishkill so I can take a different route but why would I do that. |

We need a forum couch to sit on while Tom counsels us about beer |

sounds good.
My problem is I will just go there & buy a six pack of something & try it out. I need to learn to find a good brew & stick with it. I think I have done that with the Avery brews, they are really good. |
