We're giving a nod to Grafton because our two-night stay at The Old Tavern presented us ample opportunity to try a variety of bottles from McNeill's Brewery in Brattleboro, VT. While attending the wedding of one of my best friends, we were shocked to have a quality selection from a local craft brewer. I know at most weddings we've attended (including our own), we're lucky to find Sam Adams amongst the Amstels and Bud Lights, so this was certainly a treat. The selection itself was very impressive as well, with some more of McNeill's extreme beers available.
Someone who agreed with us
Between the two of us, we sampled Blond Bombshell, Extra Special Bitter, Champ Pale Ale, Sunshine India Pale Ale, Dead Horse India Pale Ale, Warlord Imperial IPA, Pullman's Porter, Oatmeal Stout, and Dead Angel Imperial Stout. So yeah, that's a lot of McNeill's beer on hand. Of course, we did space it out over two nights, but needless to say it fueled our good times. I was particularly fond of the Dead Angel, Warlord, and Pullman's Porter. I think Katie was a fan of everything, if you know what I mean. The wedding was insanely fun regardless of the beer selection, but that was a definite bonus. Great job Vermont by staying local!
