In Pursuit of Sam

The second day of the trip was a big one for us. We were hitting our first ever breweries in Delaware. It was also the first time I’d ever been in the state and I couldn’t have been more excited. And before you ask if we went to Dogfish, the answer is yes. Both of them. In our (okay, my) pursuit of Sam.

Back in the Keystone State

We were last in Pennsylvania in March 2008 as part of a media tour for the inaugural Philly Beer Week. On that visit, Merideth and I experienced a whirlwind tour of the greater Philadelphia beer scene. On our own this time, we planned another crazy four days, including not only Pennsylvania but also journeying into Delaware for the first time.

Carpe Diem! at St. Andrew’s College

Remember Dead Poets Society? I saw that film when I was a teenager and still remember the moody aura of that ivy-league all-boys’ school in autumn Vermont. Shot at St. Andrew’s School in Middletown, Delaware, the movie did a good job of portraying the life of smart, sensitive, lost, lonely and desirous young men at boarding school. Or so I thought. With the release this pas .. more ..

"Freedom and Unity" - the crest on the Vermont state flagAs a Vermont innkeeper, I get many questions about the state. A guest asked recently if this is the smallest state in the US (state size, not population). I knew that Rhode Island and Delaware are smaller, and that New Hampshire is about the same size. However, I was surprise .. more ..

Vermont Brewers Festival July 20 + 21

Vermont is home to more breweries per capita than any state in the USA. To many of us, that's good. Fewer people, more beer. Once a year, all those brewers put down their hops shovels and get together on a lake front to celebrate and do a little competing. They even invite some of their friendly competitors from Massachusetts, New York, Maine, New Hampshire, and Delaware. This year, the Verm .. more ..
