What brewery are you visiting?

Going back even before Utah we (me and family) were in Erie PA for the day. Went to a place that we've been to before, and enjoyed again, the Brewerie at Union Station.

This place is an amazing use of old space, occupying an old train station.

Food and beer are uniformly good...

Apologize for the panoramic photos, which come across somewhat small on HBT...the scale of this place is difficult to capture otherwise. Imagine an early/mid 20th century public space (train station) being turned into a restaurant/brewery...it's quite impressive!

Went to Alter Brewing in Downer’s Grove, IL on Friday evening. Decent brews. Sampled a bourbon barrel aged stout that was awesome.

Most recently, The Beer Diviner in Petersburg, NY. Small brewery in the middle of nowhere near the NY/Mass border. I helped with a batch a few months ago and finally got the chance to go back. Turned out he had to dump it . Beers are good, not stellar, but the guy is super nice.

I stopped into two this last weekend:

Galena Brewing Company: I'd had some of their beers before just as they were transitioning to a new head brewer. Back that, I thought the beers were solid but not outstanding. This weekend I sampled beers again now that the new brewer is cranking them out. Much, much better beer. They're not big on IPA,s but other offerings were very tasty for the style. An imperial brown ale called Alister B stood out as being outstanding. Their BA stout was a bit boozy but solid. It will age nicely I think.

7 Hills Brewing: I had heard good things about this brewery and was excited to check them out. I found their offerings to be like many small breweries...inoffensive but uninspiring. They had a west coast IPA that was solid, but not something I'd seek out or try to replicate (my standard for a "really good beer"). Everything else was just....not interesting. Not bad, just run of the mill stuff that I can do without. It's places like this, that are successful despite lackluster beer, that make me think I could make a go of it opening a nano.

That is a *thoroughly* unique bathroom! I may indeed steal that for my basement/barroom bathroom!!!

Just got back from Naughty Oak Brewing in Orcutt. Had a Black IPA, a Pilsner, and a Red IPA. All decent, not great.

At Lena Brewing. Went there last January.

That ^^^ is all extremely cool too! More ideas, more ideas......

I have seen keg urinals at other breweries in the past, but I really like the tap handle faucets...the incorporation of the tri-clover fitting is definitely unique.

Back in the ATL. Visited 2 breweries in Decatur yesterday, both doing some fine barrel aged sour beers.

Tilion Brewing in Cannon Falls, MN. Just opened a couple weeks ago. Only brewery in a small town where I work. Hopefully it becomes a good place to have one after work, which I did last Friday.
