I stopped in at Sterling Pig Brewery in West Chester, Pennsylvania for lunch and a beer.  The Pulled Pork Platter was just awesome!  Their barbeque is amazing in addition to their sauces and side dishes.  That Molasses sauce and the Jalapeno sauce – delicious.   My wife had the brisket which was also wonderful.  My brother-in-law had the Snuffler IPA which is very nice.  He’s shared cans of that with me in the past.  I tried This Little Piggy Single Hop Mosaic and Centennial – both great IPAs.  The Le Cochon Noir was so chocolatey that my wife who does not like beer enjoyed it.  And the Gourdfather Imperial Pumpkin Ale was also so tasty that my wife liked that also.  We had a wonderful time there – great vibe and surroundings.  Great place to stop in for food and beers.

Finally!  I’ve been visiting breweries in Houston since 2012 when it was essentially just Saint Arnold.  And don’t get me wrong.  Saint Arnold is awesome.  But I learned about Buffalo Bayou years back and drove past their brewery which was only open on weekends and me being a business traveler I was never in Houston on the weekends.  So, i was thrilled when I learned that Buffalo Bayou Brewing Company had a new brewery and taproom in Houston!  This facility is new, without being officially opened yet, but I stopped in tonight ant the burger was delicious and the beers delightful.  More Cowbell double IPA was wonderful with dinner and Pecan Pie scotch ale was a delightful after dinner drink.  Great place.  Great food.  Great Beers!

Let’s get real, I stopped in at Zydeco Brew Werks, in Tampa, Florida and did not review the picture I took of my beer until later and sadly it’s blurry.  But maybe a blurry picture is better than no picture at all.  So, the bartender helped me with a dinner order turning the buffalo shrimp po boy into a salad which was delicious and he allowed me to taste a few beers and I decided rather than get an IPA with flavor fighting the buffalo I’d go with the pilsner – love the name – All I Wanted Was A Pilsner – to complement the spicy food.  Perfect dinner.
