I went to SunUp last night for a special tapping of two cask ales for the local Homebrew clubs. One was a strong Scotch Ale and the other was a Double Red in conjunction with our local Beer Week celebration. Along with the Double Red, I smoked a Gurkha Black Dragon Robusto. Luckily the Red wasn't overly hopped.

Otter Creek Brewing ~ 20th Anny Ale

I finally found a place close by that sells New Holland's Dragon's Milk!!!! But it ended up being ~$36.00 for a 6-pack! And that is with a discount!

Looks like I'll be driving to the further place still, they have it on tap and sell it by the jug for about ~$15.00. I'll take cheaper beer that will go flat over the more expensive bottles.

Sweetwater 420. Local brew that has really taken off. Anyone heard of it?

My Dad was in a monthly sampler club and we got to try that and the Georgia Brown. I really liked the Brown; the 420 was good, too.

Wow! A lot of people in the SE have never even heard of Sweetwater. That's really awesome. I have an uncle that passes through from NY to Fla and back a few times a year and he always grabs a case or two of 420 to take with him. I agree the Ga Brown is really good, just a little heavy with the sweltering heat we have here. If you like that you should (if you ever get the chance) try their seasonal brews. Again, heavy but damn good.

I generally like my beer "heavy" so if I'm ever in Georgia I'll be sure to check them out.

You can sorta see the Georgia Brown label in the third picture, left of the Boont ESB label

And the 420 label in the fifth picture, about 3 labels to the right of the Packers logo.
