boston, moe nye trip

[Rossolee]

Hey Folks... the following is a quick review of our recent trip down to Boston... Cheers

Boston was great! Lots of tasty beer, yummy food, great

friends and a couple awesome moe. shows!!

On our first night in Beantown we went to Neptune Oyster

and The Lord Hobo. Neptune Oyster is a great raw bar.

Tons of fresh oysters, followed by Crab Claws, Yellowfin

Tuna and Clam Chowder...definitely worth checking out

if in the North End.

40 Craft Beers on tap Also, a must for beer geeks.

Tasted some awesome stuff... Great Divide Fresh Hop,

Bear Republic NorCal and Racer 5, Avery IPA.... Things

got fuzzy

On Thursday before the show we checked out the

Museum of Fine Arts. The new Art Of Americas wing

was open. Some humbling stuff...4 floors with lots to

see... Everything from Jackson Pollack to Lauren Harris

to Ansel Adams right down to ancient Native art.

Each floor showcases different eras..

After the museum we headed to our friends Matt

and Jens for some pre-moe. eats and treats. They

had a great spread and tons of tasty brews! Shared

a couple great beers from Pretty Things and some

Sierra Nevada Celebration Ales Thanks folks!!

Again met up with more friends Drew and Dawn, the Multibeast

and their whole crew! Jay Poole(Jaydawg) and his crew, and

finally Matty(Chatham Station,NY crew)

Thought the show was decent with a few nice jams. 2nd set they

ramped it up a bit. A little holding back maybe for NYE.

NYE day several of us enjoyed a late lunch at Eastern Standard!

Cheese plate and Steak Frites were awesome... We headed back

to pre-game at Arms room at the Lenox. Arm was kind of enough to have

a pile of the "who's who" of craft beer chilling for us. Harpoons IPA

Leviathan IPA, 21st Amendment Live Free or Die IPA, GD Hercules DBL

IPA... Thanks!!! All were awesome.. Then it was off to moe with the Dirty

Dozen Brass band opening... perfect.
