So far tonight I've enjoyed a North Coast Pranqster (amazing), Red Sky At Night Saison Ale (very good) and a Great Divide Hoss (very good).

I haven't tapped into the Breckenridge Christmas Ale, Red Sky at Night Imperial Stout or the Southern Tier Mokah yet. Probably will enjoy those tomorrow.

Last night had a bottle of Alesmith Speedway Stout that I've had for about a year and a half, was amazing. Although I've been drinking quite a bit of beers out of my stash and it's dwindling down quickly. Today I have a bomber of Arrogant Bastard and a 4 pack of Founders Breakfast Stout for watching football.

Had a Northern Harvest which was outstanding. Wet hops plucked from the bine are the best.

Also had a Mothers Milk Maibock which was decent.

I love Speedway Stout and always have a bottle of it on hand. Kinda like a rotating stash with that one. I do have a bottle of Alesmith Decadence since 2005. (10th year Anniversary Ale) Not sure when I'm going to open that.

I had a few Victory Storm Kings the other night. I forgot how good they were for being just 9%.

On a sad note the Greg Koch book signing I was going to attend tomorrow has been cancelled. Damn !!!

I would try the World Market in Canton. I haven't found a very good source for craft beers in Dover/Philly. The only bar relatively close that could POSSIBLY have something like this is the Towpath Tavern in Bolivar.
