Re: Philly beers

natives have any idea why they don't get the recognition of Victory, Dogfish

> Head or even Flying Fish? Oh...Have you tried their old ale?

Yards gets plenty of recognition IN Philly. They don't send a lot of their beer outside Philly, haven't had to. That's going to change in the next two years, and you'll see more critical acclaim. The other thing is... Yards beers were terribly variable for about a three year period: one month fantastic, the next month piss-poor. The new brewery seems to have put that phase behind them, I hope for good. Everything I've had from there this year has been excellent.

Ayup, that'd be the reason. Us non-Philadelphians can't very well rave about beer we can't get.

Oh I think they DO get the recognition, but they're obviously smaller, and havent quite found their marketing "hook" yet.

Close enough to be a Philadelphian!

I'd like to "hook" some Yards.
