The legislature amended the law to allow the sale of beer with alcohol content up to 12% by volume. Now we won't have to drive out of state to get good beer anymore!

Grand day indeed though I have yet to see anything decent in stores, unless the new law has not taken effect yet.

Welcome to the club!

I see good beer in your future and a small bump up in your economy.

12% alcohol? That's barley wine!

[Freelancer]

Well done...I'll drink to that!

Where I was raised you could just drive across the bridge and be in WVa.
So the trip for good Beer wasn't that far.

It used to be 6%.....It's quite the step forward.

Yuengling finally decided to start selling here also.....been selling like gangbusters.

I haven't seen any craft stuff either, but, I haven't really been looking. It will take time for the distributors to hammer out the agreements with the brewers, I'm sure.

Incidentally, a couple of piping friends helped me brew some beer last weekend, an amber ale the kit makers called Phat Tyre, an homage I believe to Fat Tire.
Should be ready for July 4 festivities
Couldn't have been better, brewing beer, playing pipes and drinking some beer they had made earlier.
Good day, indeed.
