It’s days like today where you really need to support local businesses, especially farmers markets.

It’s that time of year again! Hop harvest is upon us here in New York and the techniques that Chris Holden from The Hop Guild has learned over the years is paying off. The yards are looking great and first year Vista were absolutely bursting. Exciting stuff!

Sometimes your night is made up of Nigerian Spirits, brought home to you by your cousin and life is good. Pedro’s Ogogoro and DALA-IFE.

Bottles of Dala IFE (left) and Pedro’s Ogogoro (right) sit on a marble countertop with a couple glasses filled with the liquors and a couple of blurred people in the background. Pretty sure it’s the camera and not my current state of vision.

Time to check the barrels. Barrel aged beers aren’t something we do often, because we want to make sure we do it right and haven’t felt we’ve been able to give it the right level of care till now. But expect to see more in the months and years to come as we expand our library.

Women with ponytail, black gloves and gray hooded sweatshirt pries a nail from a barrel while a man with a hat and gray t-shirt and black gloves stands behind her with a glass ready to catch the barrel aged beer.

This is our Baltic Porter “Lily’s Elixir”. This is only one of the couple Porters we have brewed in 9 years, with our focus mainly being on stouts. In the current landscape of style shifts, where do people stand on stouts and porters needing separate categories as they bleed into one another?
