A smoker, a grill or an oven. but at 400 bucks up to 1000, I guess I had to pass.  It is on my Christmas list though, know that.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, there was a great selection at this store and I picked up some Insanity and Black Hole from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.weyerbacher.com\/cwo.php?id=7&amp;page_id=19\">Weyerbacher<\/a> in Easton PA and Fes<a href=\"http:\/\/bp0.blogger.com\/_ncJfGrJ7a2I\/SGg-rLXy6AI\/AAAAAAAAAS4\/9cQ-1k0jiNc\/s1600-h\/festina.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bp0.blogger.com\/_ncJfGrJ7a2I\/SGg-rLXy6AI\/AAAAAAAAAS4\/9cQ-1k0jiNc\/s320\/festina.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>tina Peche from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dogfish.com\/\">Dogfishhead <\/a>in Milton DE.<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/bp1.blogger.com\/_ncJfGrJ7a2I\/SGg9K8W0w2I\/AAAAAAAAASo\/89poZEQEE80\/s1600-h\/insanity.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bp1.blogger.com\/_ncJfGrJ7a2I\/SGg9K8W0w2I\/AAAAAAAAASo\/89poZEQEE80\/s320\/insanity.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/bp2.blogger.com\/_ncJfGrJ7a2I\/SGg94FMsavI\/AAAAAAAAASw\/p-KITWo0jD0\/s1600-h\/black+hole.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bp2.blogger.com\/_ncJfGrJ7a2I\/SGg94FMsavI\/AAAAAAAAASw\/p-KITWo0jD0\/s320\/black+hole.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Black hole was pretty good.

My father-in-law did at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.virginiasafaripark.com\/\">Virginia Safari Park<\/a>. Kinda cool, but kinda wrong in some ways as well.<br \/>Then just down the road you can find <a href=\"http:\/\/www.naturalbridgeva.com\/\">Natural Bridge<\/a>. A really cool natural formation in an area that is really starting to build up the cheese factor.  And by that I mean wax museum\/dinosaur land\/really bad gift shop crap. Just let people enjoy nature and keep the rest of it out of sight. (ok, you&#8217;d understand more if I had taken the picture of the cowboy riding a dinosaur outside of the natural bridge gift shop-weird!)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bp1.blogger.com\/_ncJfGrJ7a2I\/SGhAOk0Vj-I\/AAAAAAAAATI\/GDMG5trmLdg\/s1600-h\/Trip+to+VA,+June+2008+069.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bp1.blogger.com\/_ncJfGrJ7a2I\/SGhAOk0Vj-I\/AAAAAAAAATI\/GDMG5trmLdg\/s320\/Trip+to+VA,+June+2008+069.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/bp1.blogger.com\/_ncJfGrJ7a2I\/SGg_qZJebpI\/AAAAAAAAATA\/G3YgDlDptFU\/s1600-h\/Trip+to+VA,+June+2008+048.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/bp1.blogger.com\/_ncJfGrJ7a2I\/SGg_qZJebpI\/AAAAAAAAATA\/G3YgDlDptFU\/s320\/Trip+to+VA,+June+2008+048.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/cosmos\/search.html?sub=postcosm&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fflossmoorstation.blogspot.com%2F2008%2F06%2Fwheres-beer.html\" title=\"other blogs commenting on this post\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/static.technorati.com\/images\/bubble.gif\" alt=\"Technorati talk bubble\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\tOn our aforementioned trip to Roanoke VA, I knew that the brewery\/brewpub\/beer bar scene was going to thin out through West Virginia and into southwest VA(and that&#8217;s why I packed plenty of bottles of our beer).
