The only place I'm familiar with in Easton is World Market. I'd try there. No clue about bars.

If you are looking for a bar at Easton they opened a World Of Beer with something like 50 beers on tap and a ton of other bottles.

Have you had the Bitches Brew before? It's tasty!

What is that on the left? I've never seen that before.

As COA stated it is the Noble King Hoppy Farmhouse Ale. Never had any beers from Noble King, but that has to be one of my favorite bottles. If you don't notice the Lion is made out of hops lol.

I had indeed noticed that, so I assumed it to be an IPA, but since I couldn't read the label and didn't recognize it, I thought I'd ask.

I'm going to have to keep a look out for something like this in the near future.

Not bad. Like the Christmas (spices) ales a little better, but this is good.

Yeah, you'll notice the distinction between the Christmas Ales (Ohio-based breweries) and the Winter Ales for the most part. The Christmas ales are spiced. If you like thick spice flavor, I recommend Hoppin' Frog's Frozen Frog.

I prefer Winter Ales with less spice, though I do enjoy a nice hybrid of the two, with just a little spice, but not so much that it covers up the beer flavor.

Which OC'er had Southern Tier Creme Brule recently? We're friends on Untappd but I don't remember who you are on the OC. Anyways - I've wanted to try this beer but I've always heard it's too sweet.

Does anyone here really like it and enjoy drinking an entire bomber of it?

I believe that would be Mooney that just had it errrrr poured it out...lol. I've had it on many occasions. I will say it's very different and doesn't taste like it smells. Real sweet flavor that some people just can't get over.. I've had it on tap lately and if I drink a bomber it is usually shared with The Wife. It's pretty overwhelming stuff.
