So my girlfriend and I are planning a road trip out to Vermont. She wants to do some hiking, I want to pick up some awesome beer. We're planning on heading out the last weekend in September. We're planning on spending a couple nights in Burlington and a night or 2 in Montpelier.
The breweries I was thinking about hitting are Fiddlehead, the Alchemist and Hill Farmstead. I'm wondering if there are any tips people who have visited these places before might have that might help the experience go as smoothly as possible.
I've visited 3 Floyds a few times and have learned that some days are better for a visit than others. Also, that they tend to bottle on certain days. They also have limits on how much beer you can purchase.
Other than what is stated on these breweries websites, is there anything I should know before planning this trip? Or maybe even some other breweries I should check out while in VT, or along the way between Chicago and VT.
