#Repost @thehopspur We stopped in Milwaukee at @centralwatersmke for a flight and some full pours. The space is really neat. It most recently was the Captain Pabst Pilot House, but it was originally a German Methodist church built in 1873. This weekend they happened to drop a new beer called S’getti, a collab with @transientartisanales. Yes it is “Spaghet” inspired. How wonderfully apt. We also enjoyed the Old Country Italian Pilsner (also a collab with Transient), the Festival Express kvass style Festbier (a collab with @ahnapeebrewery), MKE 1 DDH DIPA and Sentimentality, a black IPA. The space was really cool, the beers delicious and they had football on the large screen. We love their barrel aging program, but we were driving and decided to do it next time.

When in #Belfast : Chuffed to discover a #beer named after #GameofThrones fan favorite #Hodor ! A golden hued #pilsner, #Hodoor has a refreshing robust #hoppy taste that is simply enjoyable. I date say it's almost as good as a Czech #palelager ! Retails at #TheCuan #pub in #Strangfold which also houses Door 1 of the 10-door #GOT series depicting Season 6 of the HBO epic fantasy series. #NowtofindQueenCerseiswine #havebeerwilltravel #GOTterritory (at The Cuan)

You can’t stay in your corner of the forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.

-A. A. Milne Winnie The Pooh

I grew up in the City, capital because it was the New York City. Home had a lot of things to offer in the way of social and culinary experiences, but the one thing I can say I missed out on as a kid were Tree houses. Secret hideaways in the sky with hemp rope ladders, trap doors, and built to withstand my chubby ass sitting up in it. Well suffice to say Dad couldn’t build a tree house on a lamp post or on the whimpy tomato plants in the backyard, so I went without, until I moved to Boston a few years ago and found out someone built a Treehouse Brewing Company. When I found out the Treehouse was two hours away I figured: Have Beer? Will Travel!

Monson is a town ideally suited for a brewery, as it was settled by a tavern owner named Richard Fellows back in the mid 1600′s. Jump four hundred some odd years ahead and you have some of the most exciting and well crafted brews in North-East. Whether it’s the juiciness and tropical fruit American hops of Julius, or its evil twin, Alter Ego the Mosaic and Amarillo driven version of the same base. Most recently Treehouse Brewing released Bear in its new 16oz Can format and let me tell you it’s a game changer.

In a world where IPA’s dominate the market, focusing on hops character it’s brave to feature something malt focused with out barrel aging or have some mutant yeast binge on barley sugar until the beer tastes more like vodka than beer. Bear pours out dark brown somewhere in the world of demi-glace or diner coffee, creamy white foam and soapy lacing. Aromas of toffee, and biscuits with honey come through even when the beer is at cellar temp. The body is medium plus with assertive carbonation. The finish has balance, and by that I mean that while there’s caramel maltiness the brewer has brought in some bitterness to keep the sugars from being cloying. Without exaggeration it’s easily the best brown ale I’ve had and worth the hike and wait in line.

The lines at Treehouse are exactly what you’ve heard: Long but efficient. It can take as long as 2 hours to get a growler fill but you can pick up cans while waiting and they even give you a order form to drop at the end of the line. You don’t even have to be there to wait just drop off the form, grab your cans, and go to lunch. I’d suggest bringing a friend or two to keep you distracted, maybe if you’re lucky enough that person is your girlfriend who will drive all the way out to Monson and back then drop you off to work. Sometimes she forgets her jacket and you have to share your blue flannel and it’s fifty degrees out. I’m lucky enough to have brought my best friend and partner on this trip and maybe that’s why I loved the beer so much. I’m probably and unfair judge considering but that’s even more reason to visit try it for yourself.

Treehouse Brewing Co. 160 E Hill Rd Monson, Massachusetts, 01057

Joy is not having to drink #beer out of a paper cup at an #art event! Had #Sol , a refreshing golden hued #palelager from Mexico. Served with a lime, it's not very gassy but fizzy enough to make it refreshingly enjoyable on a hot, humid night. And oh, goes great with a pulled pork taco too. Yum. #havebeerwilltravel #havefoodevenbetter #gbartafterdark #artafterdark #gillmanbarracks #beerlover #beergeek #beerstagram #instabeer #craftbeer #craftbeergeek #craftbeerlover #craftbeerstagram #Mexicanbeer #lager #markiedrinks2017 (at Gillman Barracks)

It's #Miller time! Always wanted to say that. Had my first Miller, an #American Pale #Lager that is golden color with a small white head. Not a robust #beer but light and refreshing nonetheless, and great with the delicious savory fare at #MeatSmith_sg, famed for their Southern BBQ meat items.

Its #Internationalbeerday !! As if you need a reason to have a #pint of #beer on #TGIF ! Happy 1st #weekend of August everyone! #havebeerwilltravel #beers #beerlover #beergeek #beerstagram #instabeer #craftbeer #craftbeergeek #craftbeerlover #craftbeersstagram #lagers #ales #pints #markiedrinks2017

You can spot a #Hoegaarden a mile away - it has the most distinct and, not to mention, the biggest #pint #mug there is. The #Belgium #wheatbeer is also an acquired taste - you either love it or hate it. Still, it aint half bad if you badly need a refreshing foamy #beer.

When in #Brisbane: If you love #beer, tour the famous #XXXXBrewery and see how the famous #Queensland beer get made. Best of all, you get to try 4 of their best brews the likes of #XXXXBitter, #XXXXGold, #XXXXPaleAle and the bubbly Summer Ale. I can't rem what was what in the pictures except that I was a real happy bunny at the end of the tasting! Go check it out if u r in the vicinity. #havebeerwilltravel #beerlover #beergeek #beerstagram #instabeer #Australianbeer #craftbeer #craftbeergeek #craftbeerlover #craftbeerstagram #thisisqueensland #travelogue #travelgram #markiedrinks2017 (at XXXX Ale Brewery Tours)

If you are in a cafe with nice gardens around you, having a #beery #gardenale would be a good choice. #Stone&Wood Garden #Ale is brewed with pale and crystal malts, then kettle and dry hopped with Ella. Result is a fruity malty taste with a slightly bitter finish. Great for a light meal. #havebeerwilltravel #paleale #hops #beer #beerlover #beergeek #beerstagram #beerbottle #instabeer #craftbeer #craftbeetlover #craftbeergeek #craftbeerstagram #Australianbeer #thisisqueenland #Australiancraftbeer #markiedrinks2017 #markietravels2017 (at Cafe Bistro GOMA)

While waiting for my Morton Bay Bugs #dinner, had a #Coopers #Paleale which is a bright golden #beer with a cloudy appearance and a little foam head. Taste wasn't as "heavy" as it looks and went down smoothly. Would hv preferred a lighter lager but still wasn't too bad with the seafood. #alwaysgametotrynewbeer #havebeerwilltravel #beerlover #beergeek #beerstagram #instabeer #craftbeer #craftbeerlover #craftbeergeek #craftbeerstagram #ale #Australianbeer #markiedrinks2017 (at Pig 'N' Whistle Queen Street Mall)

No, this pretty thing is not a fruit bunch but a #beer styled after a #Belgium #Saison (French for "season"), a pale ale that has its start in a farmhouse. Brewed by #Brouhaha #Brewery in Maleny, Sunshine Coast, this #Raspberry Saison tastes rather dry at first before the fruity beery flavor kicks in. Bec of its sweetness, it is apparently great for making #sorbet ice cream. Just be mindful that the #alcohol content is 5.9%... #likeitasitis #keepthekidsawayifmakingicecream #havebeerwilltravel #craftbeer #craftbeerstagram #craftbeergeek #craftbeerlover #craftbeerbrew #beerlover #beergeek #beerstagram #instabeer #sunshinecoast #thisisqueenland #markiedrinks2017 (at Brouhaha Brewery)

Planning to go #Brisbane this year? Don't miss the exclusive #Marvel: Creating the Cinematic Universe exhibition at #QAGOMA (on till 3 Sept 2017) with more than 500 props, costumes and weapons from the movies on display. Then end your day at the #GOMA cafe with this specially made Villain #Burger - does it remind you of Venom (or the Hamburgler on a bad day?) - best washed down with a #Stone&Wood #Gardenale which is fruity, malty albeit with a slight bitter finish. #preferaThorHammerburger #havebeerwilltravel #markieeats2017 #markiedrinks2017 #markietravels2017 (at Queensland Art Gallery/Gallery of Modern Art)

Joy is taking a day trip from #Brisbane to the #SunshineCoast and getting a chance to try a good half dozen locally brewed #craftbeers at the coolly named #Brouhaha #Brewery at Maleny. Boasting strong flavors and vibrant colors, the beer-on-tap line-up changes weekly with at least 2-3 new brews making their debuts.

When in #Brisbane: Had my best meal thus far at #Fritzenberger , a cool #burger n #beer place in Caxton Street. Had the signature Fritzen burger made with grass-fed beef cooked medium rare and topped with aged cheddar, lettuce, Spanish tomato and a special sauce. Utterly #yummy! Best of all is the recommended #Balter #Pilsner , a #hops driven #ale that is refreshing and flavorful, truly a "#beer beer"! And check out the cute mug with mustache! If only it was closer to the city centre... #havebeerwilltravel #beeroftheweek #burgertodiefor #markiedrinks2017 #markiefood2017 #markietravels2017 (at FritzenbergerBNE)
