Understand your hesitation, but the next-gen WCIPAs are brewed more like NEIPAs in many cases. For example, the WC pale from Fox Farm I mentioned above dry hopped with Cascade,
That's good to hear. I haven't seen any in my last few trips (6 or 7 breweries). I kick myself for not going to Fox Farm as I was down that way last weekend. in addition to Refluent they have an English bitter too.
What can ya do though? I mean, you can't order takeout without sitting at the bar, can you?
My drive to get Marlowe beers keeps shrinking… 52 minutes to North Haven, to 42 minutes to Nyack, to 25 minutes to Mamaroneck. It’s a glorious world!
I had to Google Mamaroneck to even understand where that is. Nyack I'd at least heard of. My knowledge of Westchester Cty is really limited. Glad you have good beer closer.
I imagine the food offerings have expanded considerably since I lived there in '80-'81, but when I looked at where it was, I was happy to see Sal's is still pounding out slices. Back then, they were THE pizza place in lower Westchester - pretty good NYC foldable street slices. And Walter's still doing its dog thing just down the road in Larchmont. Those places were already institutions way back when I was in my 20s.
People still flock to the old reliables. Walter’s celebrated a century a few years ago. Still very popular, and they have an additional location in White Plains… because, you know, people don’t want to drive 3 miles to the next town over.

As for Sal’s the place is still wildly popular. I’d argue it’s the most reliable NY style pizza in Westchester, Rockland and Fairfield counties. They also make one of the best Sicilian slices I have ever had. Portnoy liked it when he reviewed a few years ago.

Never been there. But you had me at old school beers and, like every hood native of this area… hard rolls. Preferably Cassone’s from Port Chester.
As mentioned above, they apparently neglected to renew their beer license and no longer serve it. So bring your lawnmower brew. As the updates below indicate, those anachronistic beers were a huge part of the experience. But I guess they're still open and the food hasn't changed. Do get the cheeseburger with fried onions if you go.

Did Zac reveal how one can get William?
Do they sell this stuff anywhere?
It’s not going to make it to distro, mainly because he only brewed enough for about 40 cases. The plan is to roll up the loading dock door either Friday, 7/28 or Saturday, 7/29 and sell cans of William and this delicious pale from Barclays (pictures below) They plan to actually open for pours and full can sales mid-August. If you asked me to be brutally honest Dove, and you only had time for one drive down 95, I would tell you to wait til the full opening in mid-August. He will have Eager to Nelson in cans by then. I tasted it the day before he carbonated the beer, and I can tell you with high confidence that it was the best batch of Eager he has brewed to date.
Unfortunately, no. And in the near term, there will be minimal distribution. By 2024, I think you might benefit from their physical location. They are in a building shared with Half Time Beverage, a massive craft beer retailer with a second location up in Poughkeepsie. Half Time has cut out the middleman (distributors) by buying beer directly from some breweries. They also have a license to ship direct-to-consumer in many states.
I'm guessing Marlowes in North Haven is toast? I have not seen any on the Big Board in a while.
Complete toast. You won’t see Zac doing business with Twelve Percent moving forward. The closest you’ll see Marlowe connected to North Haven would be collabs with Timber Ales, whose owner, Jason Stein, is very close with Zac.
I need his BA Maximus Baby Boy.
Don’t we all.
