Tonight we hung out at New England Brewing just outside of New Haven for a few pints and some tunes. (Old Home Place and Know You Rider were two I recognized. Bluegrass fingerpickin' style amid big chrome tanks for brewing and many pallets of beercans for fillin'.)

Final Friday it's called and they do it monthly. $5 for the band and the beer was free (as in beer).

And YES they have an IPA. It's their signature brew. It is called Sea Hag IPA and I love that dang hoppy bitter beeyotch. The freshness is exquisite. So happy. So very very happy. Having a local delicious beer is essential to a full and rewarding lifestyle.

Off to NYC tomorrow morning for The Disco Biscuits and then moe. Posting will be light until sometime next year. As in Wednesday.
