I met my now wife in DriShitties. You will definitely have some exploring to do.....trying to figure out how the hell to get away from there

Why I don't live there. Just go near there to hit wineries.

I do not do much drinking. However, i am sitting here in my laz boy, watching my Baseball documentary on pbs right now. All this accompanied by a stout Indica.

Been doing the port thing lately, Dow's 20 or 30 is excellent. Beyond that I am a fan of the peaty Single Malts, Oban, Lagavulin, Ardbeg, Laphroaig. and Bunnahabhain

Have you tasted Gen Dronnach? I highly recommend it if you can find it!

The pFriem bottle leads me to ask if you live in HR?

nope, farm pears & cherries and have amigos that farm pears and cherries down there. Do enjoy fishing the river every so often too though, when I'm not getting pizza and brew down by the waterfront. Lovely area, if I didn't live where i currently do, HR would probably be where i lived

edit : my wife and i are part of the pfriemster union though, and i am surrounded by breweries where we live but none quite as good or unique as pfriem.

Have to give that a shot. I'll add it to the list of Scotches to look for.

I roasted coffee beans this morning and had a cup of coffee while mixing up enchilada sauce from scratch. I know, boring.

@cody- you are going to be in craft beer heaven in Washington. I feel for you.

I’m having a first beer of the night standby—Red Hook Big Ballard IIPA; it has a big bang for the buck

I'm excited for it. I love me some Redhook and Elysian, but am really looking forward to exploring more. We're hoping to find an apartment within walking distance to a brewpub

I have lived in the Tri for 34 years. Some good breweries here and in Yakima. Great wineries all around as well. But I was in “beer heaven” when my son owned a place in Ballard. Walking distance (stumbling distance) to several great breweries.

No stores with a killer selection of canned or bottled beers?

Vandelay Industries · Feb 20, 2022

Monkey Shoulder Whiskey tonight.

Sure, but you should be able to get that about anywhere. Except maybe Utah per Cody’s issues. Poor guy needs to get here.

I agree you *should* but it seems like it varies.

I counted 9 brewpubs here in the TriCities, that does not count the taphouses. And it does not count the cider brewing places, or the cider taphouse. I'm partial to White Bluffs NOG (nectar of the gods) and Ice Harbor brewery. There are a couple I haven't tried yet, now that I'm retired I need to get out more. I'm a big fan of Bale Breaker in Yakima as well, nice place to visit.
