Loose Cannon by Heavy Seas (Balto brew), you might enjoy that IPA; 7.25%, $7.99/6 @ Safeway. Apparently gets good reviews by the suds snobs, as well. https://www.pastemagazine.com/artic...116-of-the-best-american-ipas-we-hav.html?p=3
+1 Lagunitas es Bueno! +1 on the # of brewers popping up in VA. The Devil's Backbone Vienna Lager has been my go to. I just heard they sold out to enbev (who bought AB). Little backwoods home brew going big!!!
do you know how much they were bought for? Ballast obviously has a bigger audience, history and distribution, but they sold for 1 billion dollars...
Starr Hill in Charlottesville has some tasty IPAs that will not break the bank. For the regular brews I been drinking the Dale's. Pretty good bang for your buck. Eff Sculpin. I think that's overrated just like dogfish**** and arroganto bastardo.
That cracked me up because its true! That's exactly what that is. I like hoppy beers, but that one goes overboard. loose cannon is a good IPA, harpoon has a good one too. I'm excited about greenflash being open here, even though it is way the fvck out of the way from where I live. The best part about it though is that they dropped the prices of their beers locally to reflect that it's gonna be made here (at least that's what a beer geek buddy of mine said). Either way, i love the fact that a sixer went from about 12.99 to around 7.99 (depending on the beer and retailer).
