Pennsylvania Brewery Map - West Half

This is a lot of driving for four breweries. But you don't have anything better to do. Plus there are more breweries in Western PA than I had time to read about. After spending some time in Happy Valley at Penn State book it east to Jersey to pick up the next leg on the trail. Check out my post about the West half of the state here.

Breweries A to D:

A - Troegs

B - Iron City

C - Erie

D - Otto's Brewpub

Pennsylvania Brewery Map - East Half

Since you would be coming from Delaware if you stay true to the order on my site, these directions start you off in Philadelphia, take you up to Wilkes-Barre and back down to Lancaster, where you can head west to pick up the second half of the PA trail. Before you go, read up on the first half of the Keystone State.

Here are the breweries listed from A to J:

A - Philly Brew Co

B - Yards

C -  Victory

D - Sly Fox

E - Weyerbacher

F - Lion (which is where Intercourse is also brewed)

G - Yuengling

H - Stoudt's

I - Lancaster

J - Spring House

Delaware Brewery Map

You can literally drive to each of the 5 breweries within Delaware in 2 hours and 35 minutes, according to Google. I haven't been to all of them, but I went to Dogfish Head and 16 Mile in one day and it couldn't have been more than a 20 minute drive from DFH to 16 Mile. You have no excuse. Plus, if you go from South to North, you'll be at the second state on the trail by the time you are done sampling all the suds the state of Delaware has to offer. Check back on my first post to read about these breweries.

From A to E:

A - Evolution

B - 16 Mile

C - Dogfish Head

D - Fordham

E - Twin Lakes

Brewery Maps and New Pages

So, I didn't know how blogger worked when I first started creating the state brewery maps. I created them as pages, rather than posts, because I wanted them to always be accessible. However, blogger only lets you keep 10 pages. So since I'm almost at 10 states, I am going to start posting the maps so that I can use the pages for other stuff, like a best-of trailies page, an about me page, a page dedicated to good music from each state, and a list of beers and breweries I've tried.

Here are some other ideas I've thrown around in my head for what to do with the newly blank pages;
- A page dedicated to listing every digit of pi.
- A page where one of those computerized midi files plays Mary Had a Little Lamb on loop.
- A page where I explain how my closet is organized.
- A page with streaming video of the Salt Lake City public library.

I don't know, now that I've written them down, those don't look like the greatest ideas. Some things seem better in my head.

Anyway, I'll be posting the brewery maps, so if you hadn't seen them before, they are new to you. If you have seen them before, use them and get out to some breweries.
