I tried their IPA on tap at Outback Steakhouse on the Berlin turnpike the other day. Decent

Really no I didnt think Outback Steakhouse would ever ever have that on tap.

You callin me a liar? JK. I'm not sure which cranky is was, but it defentily was stony creek cranky IPA. At the bar on the right side lines between rebel IPA and I think ten penny. Maybe it's only the one in newington or a one time keg, but I know I drank it earlier this week.
 
Little Cranky is a great session IPA. Cranky is a fine beer right there with NEB's Lil' Heaven.

Have not had the Big Cranky yet.

I was just recently introduced to Grapefruit Sculpin IPA - a really nice refreshing IPA.

Grapefruit Sculpin | Ballast Point

Had one last night only because my wife ordered a large on at dinner without trying it first and though it tasted like pickles. While I will forever be a domestic guy compared to you micr crazy guys, I kind of liked it and felt there was no pickle juice in it LOL
 
I've not been overly impressed with Big Cranky or any of the other beers from Stony Creek. A full step down from the likes of Lawson's, Alchemist and NEBCO imo.

Picked of a four pack (16 oz. cans) of Pioneer's Frontier, a "California style" DIPA. Good not great.

There's beer and there's Hill Farmstead.

Society & Solitude #6 in pic. Got me a bottle of Art and enjoyed a Civil Disobedience on-site. Everything else is just a measurable of.

Checked out the new Barcade in New Haven yesterday. Nice to have another good beer joint in town, and this will be especially convenient when hitting a show at Cafe Nine. Funny how it's a totally different crowd than Prime 16 or Cask Republic.

I loved the original one in Williamsburg but haven't been to any of the others since they expanded the franchise. I was a bit bummed that my favorite video game, Tempest, is not in New Haven; and that there is no pinball, which I far prefer to video games.

Food looked good and lots of folks were eating; I'll have to check that out next time.
 
We'll be in Vermont for 3 weeks in late June/early July. Town called Dorset. Was hoping to make some quick trips to breweries. Just checked and all the good breweries (I've been to Long Trail many years ago) are way up north near the border, 3 hours away.

Does that restaurant in Worcester still serve Hill Farmstead stuff?

Yes, the owner of Armsby Abbey in Worcester is friends with Hill Farmstead people, link to their beer menu:

Fiddlehead Brewing in Shelburne, VT is worth the trip too.
 
My new favorite easily obtainable beer is Firestone Luponic Distortion. Pretty good.

Just tried this for the first time today. Awesome beer, was kind of shocked that it's 5.9% - tastes like a session with heavy tropical notes.

If that's near Brattleboro try Whetstone station restaurant they normally have stuff from hill farmstead and other VT beers

Thanks! Will take this advice. Although it's not near Dorset, it is on the road to Dorset, which is just as good.

...and yet the eurotrash knee-grabbing futbol board gets bumped to "UConn Athletics?" WTF.

I was at Armsby on Saturday. Always worth a trip.

If anyone likes golden lagers, try the Jack's Abby House Lager. Great price point, and a good beer to convert non craft beer drinkers to better beer.
