Iron Hill Brewery, Newark Delaware

It’s no secret that I love beer. In fact, aside from water, it’s my favorite beverage. In college sure, we used to drink shit beer to get wrecked. Those days are long over. Err, well I mean I no longer drink shit beer to get wrecked. I drink good beer, get a healthy buzz, and call it a night. 🙂

On my recent trip to Hershey PA, Patty and I decided to make our way down to my old stomping ground, the University of Delaware. There, plenty of nice restaurants and bars, but one in particular always makes me smile. The Iron Hill Brewery in Newark is one of the finest restaurants from a food standpoint. In addition, all of their beer – brewed on the premises – is fantastic. I drank a few while I was there, and took three 64oz jugs to go, one of which – the Vienna Red Lager – I am currently consuming.

Iron Hill Brewery has 7 locations around Delaware and SE Pennsylvania, including the Newark, Delaware location. I highly recommend a visit to any of them.

Parents!! If you’re son or daughter goes to the U of Delaware, or they are thinking of going there, I highly recommend stopping in the Iron Hill Brewery for a meal and/or a beer. It’s well worth the trip.

Cheers.

American Craft Beer Week

I love beer. Really, I do. I drink much less of it than I used to, but then again, I used to drink beer to get drunk. Now, I drink beer for the taste. I rarely get drunk anymore. I’m all about the good beers now, no Natural Light or Meister Brau bullshit.

This week is American Craft Beer Week. In their list of “top 24”, they actually have some of my favorites. Some of my favorites not on the list: Guiness Draught, Brooklyn Pennant Ale, and Blue Point Blueberry Ale.

Ah well, I’m sitting here actually sipping a Corona at the moment for lack of any better beer in the house. None the less, as I look at the list of great beers I’m getting more and more thirsty, so I must bring this blog entry to a close. 🙂
