NT, What Beer Do You Drink?

I fell head over heels for the latest Sierra Nevada Oktoberfest.. Not as dark and biscuity as say a Sam Adams or Goose Island. But not as festivally light as a Weihenstephaner Festbier. It's a perfect balance

My go-to spot had a Sierra Nevada flight night last Thursday.  One of their reps was there and gave us some pours of their barrel-aged Ovila and the Oktoberfest.  Both were winners in my book.
 
my local rite aid got these for 9.99 a 12 pack. bought like 4 of them and it lasted me two weekends. prevented me from going out :lol:

Been getting crazy lately. My roomate loves making pickles/other pickled things so we decided to whip up a few jars of pickled eggs brining in Other Half Green Diamonds.  They're almost ready for consumption.  Will report back this weekend.

And yes...those are big chunks of onion/garlic/jalapeno

Current situation

Solid choice. I always have a couple when I'm in FL on business.

Visited my old stomping grounds in MA last week. Hit up Cisco on Nantucket while I was home. Still a great spot to visit (fresh oysters,scallops etc.) and a great atmosphere but the beer is in dire need of a reworking.
They have the right idea but every beer offered is just lacking.
Tried the anniversary grapefruit IPA and was unbelievably underwhelmed.

Suggestions on a bottle shop to check out in Philly or surrounding area?

May be in Cherry Hill area for a weekend next month and I'll most likely go to Joe Canal's in West Deptford, NJ but I would like to check out somewhere in Philly as well if I get a chance

Craft beer outlet and craft heaven are well reviewed on Ba but some ppl complain about the pricing but it's already expected to be high in Philly...is there pricing inline w/ the rest of Philly or higher?

Heady pops up every now and then in here. The only Heady I've ever had I got from an NT'er.

SOS > Heady > Pliny
But I haven't had Pliny in a long time.
Let me know if any of you are willing to trade Pliny for something. I can get Mass beer with ease (treehouse) and should be getting some VT beer (heady, SOS, second fiddle, etc) within the next couple weeks if I get a chance to make a trip.

SOS is just hands down amazing. It's got fruity citrus notes with pine and is just fantastic. Probably my favorite IPA at the moment. Had a case of it 2 months or so ago but it did not last long at all.
 
I just made untappd even though idk how to use it yet add me and also i can get most beers that I put up on my IG so feel free to add me as well on Ig
