Mark and Happy Hour Guy Andy Kindig venture out to Conestoga / Lancaster, PA, and spend some time discovering a real up-and-coming Brewery that is putting out some inventive and bold beers; and has also managed to find a real welcome with their Taproom in bustling downtown Lancaster. Enjoy!
The Team is shooting at the 5 Napkin Burger Upper West Side this afternoon. Come on by & say hello! 84th & Broadway, NYC. What a beautiful day for a beer. Or, a bourbon!
So just down the street from the George Street Playhouse, where I'm rehearsing these days, BING! There's a brewpub! (I knew I loved New Brunswick.) Yup, the Harvest Moon Brewery, at 392 George Street, literally just down the street from the train station in New Brunswick has been in this space (in quite an old building) since 1994, and under the present ownership since 2003.
We didn't have time to ask a ton of questions, but there was time to speak to a bartender, have a meal and sample some beers after a long day in the rehearsal studio.
We tasted our way through several of their beers, and very much enjoyed the Porter, a nice Double IPA and an especially fine Barleywine. The menu is quite nice and well priced. (My burrito was pretty fantastic.) We'll be in the neighborhood for a while, so perhaps we'll get back there for some video. Stay tuned! Meanwhile, whenever and wherever you can, DRINK LOCAL! Cheers!
The Guys find themselves (oh, there we are!) in Fayetteville, West Virginia, a town known for whitewater rafting, mountain biking, climbing, and... GREAT pizza and craft beer! ;Yup, Pies and Pints in the very cool small town has some of the best pizza The Guys have ever had with incredibly fresh ingredients.
This one's a bit of a teaser folks. Suffice it to say, there is video coming soon (as in Summer soon) from the fine folks at Ithaca Beer Co. Fingers crossed! Flower Power IPA... Wonderful. Like the Happy Hour Guys Hideaway, by the way? Hee hee!
The line begins.
Mirjana - why so happy? Because you're pouring cask ale?
Love the headgear. And the beer.
Happy Happy Hour Guys.
