This weekend I broke one of my beer drinking rules and in fact, I broke the same rule twice. That rule is that I won't have the same beer twice in a single sitting. I started off the weekend a little early by having lunch on Friday at the Flying Pig in Malvern. I ordered a Hop Angel Brauhaus Angel Fuel from Dock Street. This is a very nice Black Ale. I didn't see anything else on the menu that I wanted (except for a couple of big alcohol beers that I would rather not have at lunch time). So, I got another Angel fuel to go along with a really awesome cheesesteak.
After work on Friday I stopped in at McKenzie's Brewhouse in Frazer. I started with a Houblonette. A nice, earthy farmhouse ale. It only has 4.5% abv but more flavor than you would expect. This was an awesome beer. Then I moved on to a Saison Vautour which is another farmhouse ale. This is one of their regular beers and it is a good one also but I'd take the Houblonette over this one. There is something about that Houblonette. So I ordered another one. That is the second time I broke my one beer a day rule. While there I also managed to try an Irma La Douce. This darker saison was good but a little sweet for my taste.
On Saturday I had lunch at the Craft Ale House in Limerick. I started with a Yard's IPA. It was OK. I then had an awesome Short Rib sandwich and a Cappuccino Stout. This is a pretty good Imperial Stout and it went well with my sandwich.
