    Just went to a place I read about on Beer Advocate and omg I was in beer heaven. Tucked in the back of a wine shop were hundreds of craft brew gold. And as I was leaving with 2 bombers and a 6er I saw the most amazing news. Rockford is now going to be supplied with Stone Brew.

    Also remember that not all the good craft brews make it to retail. You may have some local places too. I'm lucky to have near me several places that have benefited from the efforts of craft brew legend Bill Madden. http://holzbrew.blogspot.com/2009/06/interview-with-brewer-bill-madden.html

    He recently opened his Mad Fox brewpub http://madfoxbrewing.com/. If you like IPA' his Kamakazi Hoptail is amazing.

    Another of my favorites is the Capital Ale House with several locations. One of the Richmond locations has 300 bottle selections, two beer engines and 75 taps. Victory Storm King served on cask is amazing

    Awesome Ill definitely keep an eye out for anything you guys recommend. I hit a partially local place today lol and got 6 bombers of different Stone brews, Left Hand Rye Bock, and a Dogfish Head I havent seen elsewhere called Squall IPA. Im gonna have to start feeling better so I can drink this damn beer! Been coughing up a damn storm lately and its very irritating lol. Great birthday now its time for a great nights sleep.
