To me, one of those nearly speechless “wow” moments Kevin, definitely. Once I came “around” and to my senses, I wanted everyone around me to taste it, I “had” to have them taste it, not even thinking they were not beer fans at all..

I also remember my first taste of Maharaja. It was on tap at Naja’s Place in Redondo Beach, CA. I was a burgeoning hop head/craft beer fan and I had just had my first (and only to this day, sadly) Pliny the Elder on tap. The Maharaja quickly became the second best beer I’d ever had…the Pliny being the first.

If you like Pumpkins… and can still find it, give Weyerbacher’s Imperial Pumpkin Ale a shot. it’s quite sweet. I saw they had a Firkin set up where the Imperial Pumpkin was poured through a pumpkin and served. Very cool.

I saw a Blue Ridge Distributor van driving down I-64 in Waynesboro last week with the New Belgium logo on it. I gave him a thumbs up!

Devil’s Backbone, perhaps? Surely Starr Hill has been there before!

I’m excited about Brewtopia happening, especially with the likes of Bell’s, DFH, and Lagunitas on hand. Will also be good to see Roanoke Railhouse, Big Daddy’s, and even those guys from NC, Foothills.

Thanks for the informative blog.

Free ticket sounds good to me! Love the blog. Looking forward to trying the winner of last year’s Clipper City homebrew contest.

I have to say that the best “new to me” beer I tried at Microfestivus this year was the Black Radish, from Weeping Radish Farm Brewery in the Outer Banks. Very smooth finish, just an all around great beer.
