On Saturday we took the kids to Sesame Place for a day of roller coasters and water rides. We stayed until closing (8:00pm) and I knew the kids would be asleep within minutes of leaving the parking lot. I also knew that we were not far from Newtown which means we are not far from Isaac Newton's. This is a place I have heard of and always wanted to visit. Although it is in the center of town it is a little hard to find because it sits behind the other buildings on State Street. In fact, I made several passes down the street and could not find the place. It was my wife who suggested I park the car and get out and walk as the town is not that big. That is what I did. It is a really cool place with a good selection of beer. I had a Terrapin Gamma Ray which is a big wheat wine coming in at 11% abv. It had a good flavor with a bit of a tang to it. I was sorry to leave after only one beer but I had to get back to the wife and kids.
On Sunday we were out for a ride and ended up at Union Jack's Inn on the Manatawny. Again, those sleeping kids...I went in and had a Lagunita's Undercover Shutdown Ale. This is a malty, sweet and yet bitter ale at 9.7% abv. Despite the temperatures in the upper 90's I enjoyed this one.
