Swill and Swine VA: December 2016

http://www.swillandswineva.com/2016_12_01_archive.html

Saturday, December 17, 2016. Nestled closely to the Shenandoah mountains just outside of Waynesboro is one of Virginia's newer craft breweries. Stable Craft Brewing. Stable Craft offers a nice locally sourced menu of appetizers, burgers, sandwiches, salads along with other sides and sweets. I opted for the nachos which were really good and a meat and cheese platter. Perfect match for the beer and the weather we were having. Friday, December 9, 2016. Sperryville Part I "The Drink".

Hawksbill Cabin: July 2015

http://hawksbillcabin.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html

Tuesday, July 28, 2015. The Watchful Eye @hawksbillhops. Here's a branch of Chinook cones. Piney goodness. This weekend we walked through the hop yard scouting the plants for signs that they are ready - our conclusion is yes they are! We have finally agreed upon the dates we're going to do this: August 6-12. We're planning an event associated with it, so those details are forthcoming. But that is how it goes sometimes. It's been a lot of fun so far, and I'm looking forward to each step of the way. We've ...

But I do have an update to report at last:. We had our first brewery visits a couple of weekends ago! Visiting with brewers from Tin Cannon and Pen Druid. From Gainesville to the yards on...
