Petey & Mat, you guys would love my brother-in-laws restaurants. It's called The Drafting Room, there's one here in Exton and one in Springhouse (Ambler/Fort Washington). Rated one of the Top50 Beer bars in America. All kind of crazy good drafts and bottles. It's where I spend most of my time when enjoying .

I've heard of the place before..My local spot also made the top 50 list as well, I think by beer advocate and I forget the magizine, esquire or something along those lines.. Grey Lodge FTW

Yes, my sister married the one owner, their brothers who own the restaurants, they also own the Brickside Grille in Eagleview if any of you are familiar with that.

I do think it would be a little far for either one of you (Petey/Mat) too travel to. Yeah, the D-Room just celebrated it's 14th year at Exton. They have a 14 anniversary Treogs on tap right now, had a few last friday night, it's pretty good. Great beers, great food, and only 30 seconds from my house. Win-win for me...

So who all plans on going on Sunday?

marc. i am actually a wine-o. i got several organic/biodynamic wines from italy sitting in the cooler.

so does organic alcoholic beverages encourage you to drink?

i always prefer wine of anything else but you know how gay i would look if i showed up at TGI with these guys and ordered a cabernet?

^^ the only thing gay about ordering a cab at fridays would be the fact that i would be embarrassed to cook with anything on their wine list. haha

i find that beer is more easily paired with food, and for the average consumer, beer is generally much less intimating than wine. on a personal level, i consider myself a connoisseur of all things good. food, beer, wine.. ect haha. i guess thats what growing up in a gourmet house and spending my entire life within the hospitality biz.
i might come out sunday as a spectator. i would like to try it out, but i have no interest in waking up that early on a sunday.

I used love beer (and any alcoholic drink) . I stopped drinking altogether a few months ago though. It was starting to become a problem when I was getting drunk 5-6 nights a week .

I'll be there Sunday as a spectator .

Who is silly enough to write something like that??

On a side note I love red wine, I order red wine whenever I go out to eat and have steak.. It is the perfect compliment to a nice porterhouse or tenderloin

I can't get into drinking wine. Two glasses is like the most I can handle. I'm much better off sticking with .

Pistol, I don't know where some of those tags came from... I don't recognize half those sayings. Except for Chu is god of coarse...

I know it sounds funny but for some reason I can drink wine all I want and only get drunk to a certian point. the wife and I went to the chadsford wine festival a couple years ago and I drank myself sober.
