You’ve already mentioned Moxie, which can still be found around New England. Another worth mentioning is Twin Lights Ginger Ale (a very dry, light ginger ale), produced in Rockport, MA and sold only in Rockport and...

, fry gently in a skillet....rice wrappers really want to form Siamese twins when fried in a wok and you have better control in a skillet, when browned all over, serve hot with vanilla ice cream on top or dulce de leche. I used...

Town Tavern (sorry if I’ve gotten any names wrong). DH is very into local craft brews, cask conditioned ales, etc. Which of these — or any others? — would you recommend? Thanks for any help you can provide. Oh,...

I’m thinking I need to get thyself to the Café - which I have yet to experience. I’ve heard pretty consistently that the café is better than the restaurant and it would be hard to believe that two such Siamese twins...

Sam was the first beer I had that had flavour and inspired me to try more. I still like the Boston Ale, Black Lager and Old Fezzywigg, And while I no longer really like the Cranberry Lambic it did get me to try true versions of...

Try it on tap at the Library Ale House, Main st. S.M.

One advantage of going to True Thai – which is my current favorite – or Chai (tiny with stylish decor & good papaya salad) is that you could drive down West River Road (aka Parkway) to get there. It’s one of the...

Hey...great time to be here! That weekend is the Twin Cities Marathon (maybe that’s why you’re here?). Be sure to check out www.twincitiesmarathon.org — you’ll want to be aware of the traffic restrictions,...

Sherlock’s Home at Crosstown (MN 62) & Shady Oak Road. Outstanding food & service. Great British pub atmosphere. Superb cask-conditioned ales (try the Bishops Bitter). You can’t go wrong. Their Beef Wellington is...

tried two ales, Mc Causland’s Cream which he found rather neutral and the house pale ale which he found palatable if not particularly bold. I started with the chicken liver mousse which was served with an oddly unsalted (and...
