BeerBQ Posted October 17, 2021 Report Share Posted October 17, 2021 On the way home from the football game we stopped a Salt Creek in Bedford. It is a unique place that has some good food and beer. They mentioned cigars and wine but we didn’t have any of either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hooked up with a brewery called "Yee-Haw".... excellent place. I haven't been to Gburg since I was probably 14. I loved it there as a kid. My mom still goes once a year for hiking. Took some YeeHaw home with us. It’s good stuff. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty close to where I grew up. 4 nice breweries in Columbus, as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reacher Posted October 26, 2021 Report Share Posted October 26, 2021 Have tried a few while on vacation. Gatlinburg Brewery was OK, picked up a 6 pack from Smokey Mountain Brewery that I liked and stopped for lunch at this place (pictured) food was average but sitting outside on the deck next to the creek on a perfect fall day was a 10+. Stopped and sampled moonshine at Sugarlands Distillery. Was a neat experience. $5 for 12 mini shots. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went there a few weeks ago and did Smoky Mountain Brewery but not Gatlinburg. We also stopped at Hexagon in Knoxville for lunch on the way home. I forget what we paid for our moonshine tasting, but it was at Pigeon Forge distillery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were going to drive to Cherokee and the come up the and drive the tail of the dragon but decided we did not have enough time so drove on the Blue Ridge Parkway and returned from the East. Views and fall colors were great. Probably a week away from peak colors at the lower altitudes. Had an awesome slab of ribs at the Local GOAT. Waiting on the wife and we will be heading to Downtown Nashville to try more beer and BBQ! Edited October 26, 2021 by Reacher 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No fall colors then, however. Sadly we didn’t get any bbq down there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeerBQ Posted October 30, 2021 Report Share Posted October 30, 2021 If anyone is into Oktoberfest beers you may want to hurry. They’re about gone down here. I decided to go with a classic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw some of the other ones (Blantons was one) but they were a little pricey for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reacher Posted November 27, 2021 Report Share Posted November 27, 2021 I got the full set minus the double barrel one. It was $55 and I figure for that price you should get a keg! I did get 2 of the $40 bottles (Blanton and 150). Maybe I'll look into selling one. I don't know if I will be able to appreciate the finer flavors. I still have 4 bottles left over from last year so now I feel more comfortable drinking them. Going to have one watching the IU game tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May run out before the upcoming holiday season! I didn't know they were such big drinkers in the UK, 54% of adults drink at least once a week. I am curious what the percentage is for the US. The only thing i could find was from 2013 where the number was at 38%, i am willing to bet that percentage is higher now lol.

I’ll probably do a tasting with some family around Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reacher Posted November 29, 2021 Report Share Posted November 29, 2021 Sat night I drank my 2021 Goose Island apple pie stout while watching the IU Marshall game. It was very good. Its a shame I cant ever have another one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerBQ Posted December 5, 2021 Report Share Posted December 5, 2021 Opening my first BCBS of the year. I decided to go with the Cherry Wood which makes it the first variant I’ve ever had. It’s very tasty and dangerously smooth for the 14.2% ABV it lists. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love craft beers, particularly Three Floyd's, but if I drink 4 or 5 I feel sluggish and bloated...sucks getting old 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like my craft beers though. I've never tried Three Floyd's, i will have to keep an eye out for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
