Back from another visit to Charlotte. 

On the left: Cheerwine is a soda (pop) thing down South that is popular in our household.  It’s a cherry cola drink. I’ll bet Iclfan2 is familiar with that “pop” ….soda. So NoDa has made a wheat beer out of it. (5.2)

Next is also NoDa (which is short for North Davidson for those who don’t know). This is a good dessert beer. Wouldn’t want to drink more than one because of the sweetness. (7.0)

And then we have the Sycamore Mountain Candy IPA. It’s pretty good. (7.5%)

Ha Cheerwine is legit. Charlotte has some great breweries. 

Has Bob Huggins checked in?

BREAKING: West Virginia head coach Bob Huggins was arrested for DUI last night, confirmed by records.

Friday I went to the draft room to have some OtherHalf beers. I also got a couple beers from J Wakefield to bring home.

Has anyone seen or picked up the Bodhi box. I need to grab at least 1 12 pack of it.

Also any Bourbon guys on here I got a few bottles I need to get rid of.

What bourbon are you looking to move?

Picked up at Sam’s Club:

Found a good one. 

Quick lunch stop in Asheville on our way to Charleston. Burial is so good. 

 Very appealing looking. ^^^^^^

Saison in front, barrel aged sour in back. We’ll probably stop again on the way home and stock up on some bottles and cans.

Justin you should find somewhere local with OtherHalf Brewing on tap. I would rank it in Top 2-3 breweries in the Nation for Hazy IPAs. They recently started sending kegs and cans to Ohio for retail. 

Today I tried Ghost in the Laboratory which was a collab between Parish and Equilibrium.  It was solid. Also has Spark it a bomb pop sour from Dankhouse.

Burial is my favorite Asheville brewery.  Dssolvr is a close 2nd.

Hopefully you got a picture next to the Tom and Sloth mural.  Burial ships to Ohio.  I've place many orders with them.

Edmund’s Oast in Charleston is very good. 

Anyone going to Dragonsaddle Fest

This is getting ugly

Nice, I'll have to check them out.

I do think I've finally hit my limit on IPAs in general. I've always like them all, even the aggressively bitter stuff, and would typically default to an IPA if I was trying something new. I definitely still love the hazy stuff a la Dankhouse, but will probably start defaulting to different styles going forward unless I know I like the IPA.

I go every year.  We are taking a 14-person party bus this year, so no one has to worry about driving home.  Killer lineup of guest taps this year.

I was just there on Saturday picking up cans of the new collab with CLAG, Put Your Ear Up to a Taco Shell, What Do You Hear?  

I think I’m going to head down too. Will have the wife as a dd

Passing through and stopped at Dankhouse yesterday (after hearing about it here); flighted 4 hazy IPA's (their choice) and a stout.  Interesting joint.

Neat spot for sure. They have done a tremendous job with that location.

Cool area too. Lots of wineries and some other breweries around as well.
