Message: [QUOTE="Dogdeacon, post: 3712488, member: 1026"] Very little love for NE at Great American Beer fest this year, I'd assume its a west coast bias (up & down style, they prefer beers that don't play defense). Nothing for VT which is sacrilege in my book although maybe all the breweries we've recently discussed have already received their accolades & they spread it around. In MA Springdale got an award for Kolsch - I've tried their IPA which is basic, very clean but not remarkable (Springdale an offshoot of Jack Abbey) and Lamplighter got an IPA award (Lazy Tiger) so I'm looking on where to buy that one. Two CT beers: [LIST] [*]“Counter Weight Fest Bier,”[B] Counter Weight Brewing Co., Hamden, Conn.[/B] [I]Gold, Dortmunder or German-Style Oktoberfest.[/I] [*]“Vienna Lager,” [B]East Rock Brewing Co., New Haven, Conn.[/B] [I]Silver, Vienna-Style Lager.[/I] [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
