After shoveling the snow yesterday I worked up a thirst so I headed out to the Craft Ale House in Limerick. I had an Angler's Pale Ale from Uinta Brewing Company. I had never heard of this brewer before. Apparently they are located in Utah. This was a pretty good pale ale. I then asked for a taste of Belgian Freeze from River Horse Brewing Company. This is another brewer that I have never tried. To my surprise I liked this Belgian Dark Ale. I asked for a full glass and enjoyed it all the way down. Finally I had a Broad Street Barleywind from Appalachian Brewing Company. I haven't had one of these since the last time I visited the brewery in Harrisburg. That had to be 5 or 6 years ago. I always liked this barleywine. And I really like the fact that it is one of their flagship beers. That's right. It's available year-round. I have had these on 90 degree August afternoons. As usual, when I got to the bar tonight there was only one seat at the bar and I felt lucky to get it. When I left the bar was pretty much empty. Go figure.
I amost forgot. We were supposed to go to dinner to celebrate my wife's birthday but we cancelled due to the snow. So when I got home I opened a bottle of 2006 Zepaltas La Cruz Pinot Noir. It was a nice enough Pinot.
