Mari’s 6 Pac And Mor
While we were out in Pennsylvania last week we paid a visit to a very respectable bottle shop in Reading. I had been contacted by the store's manager weeks earlier, inquiring if we would like to check out their thousand-plus bottles available for purchase. What's that Dave? Over a thousand bottles? No more needed to be said, and I informed Mari and Dave that we would be there sooner than later.

Brewery – Yards Brewing Company
I took a little trip down to Philly yesterday with my buddy Mark to check out Yards Brewing Company. Yards has been serving up craft beer for the drinkers of Philadelphia and its surrounding markets for over a decade. An avid beer lover, owner Tom Kehoe started brewing in college with his good friend, Jon Bovit. After eventually getting a job in the early 90's at a small English-style brewery in Maryland, Tom and Jon decided they could go on their own and start their own brewery. After dumping all they had into the business and moving locations several times, Yards finally settled in the Northern Liberties section of Philadelphia, where Tom and his brewers continue to turn out some awesome brews. We spent a few hours with Tom talking about Yards, the beer industry, and of course sampling some of Philly's finest beer.
