Last Saturday I had the opportunity to go to the new McKenzie's Brewhouse in Devon. It was my wife's birthday and although she and I were going to dinner later that night (sans kids) we thought lunch with the kids would be a good idea. The new place is gorgeous and that's according to my wife, kids and myself. The food was enjoyed by all including those finicky kids. I played it safe with my first beer and had the Saison Vautour which is always very good. Then I had the Sour Marchent (not sure of the spelling). This is a great beer. It is not as sour as they would have you believe. It is in the same vein as the Two Threads that I loved so much but is no longer on tap. Next stop was the King of Prussia Mall to take the kids to Build-a-bear. While they were building, I snuck out to Rock Bottom for an cask-conditioned IPA. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Dinner was at the Kimberton Inn where I had the best liver and onions I have ever had. The atmosphere was warm and the Victory Prima Pils were cold. My wife had Fillet Mignon with scallops which was excellent as well.
I spent the earlier part of this week in Atlanta on business. I had a Ranger IPA from New Belgium Brewing. This is a nice IPA..nothing outrageous. It seems like local brewer Sweetwater Brewing Company was all over the place including the airport. There was a Sweetwater Draft House I had to spend some time in. They served several Sweetwater beers on draught and had other beers in bottles. I started with the 420 Extra Pale Ale. It was OK. Then I had the IPA which I thought was pretty good. It was an easydrinking IPA. Not bad for airport beer.
