Saratoga Hot Springs Resort
The location has transitioned over 145 years from its unique beginning as a log store, to the Saratoga Hot Springs Hotel, then the State Hot Springs Reserve, and later the Saratoga Inn until it was ultimately purchased by world-renowned surgeon, Michael Janssen, who frequently visited the area as a favorite getaway. Today it is now known as Wyoming’s premier mineral hot springs and spa destination, the Saratoga Hot Springs Resort.

Al­though the Resort has undergone extensive remodeling from the early years, many aspects of the original plan and construction remain, including the original gneiss rock wall in the lobby and banquet rooms and the barn wood throughout the main lodge originating from the old rodeo grounds. With the exception of the seven luxury suites, the lodge rooms remain their original size and are furnished for maximum comfort and warm decor. Guests frequently comment about the quaintness of the lodge rooms and the level of intimate comfort they provide.

Howe Sound Inn and Brewery in British Columbia

February 9, 2020 by Dustin Scoggins

Howe Sound InnThe Howe Sound Inn and Brewing Company is a character northwest inn located in the town center of Squamish, British Columbia, a scenic 45 minute drive north of Vancouver, and only 35 minutes south of the resort of Whistler.

The Inn offers a warm, casual atmosphere, where you can enjoy affordable accommodation, a great meal and a pint of real ale brewed on the premises. Throughout the hotel, you will enjoy artwork, photography and information on the region’s heritage, natural history and recreational opportunities. The inn is located at 37801 Cleveland Avenue in the Squamish Town Centre at the very end of Cleveland Avenue.

History of Brewing in Howe Sound
Howe Sound offers gorgeous views of the Stawamus Chief, Western Canada’s premiere rock climbing venue. The inn is a minute’s walk from downtown shops, the local marina and the Squamish Estuary. The estuary offers excellent walking and running trails, and is a site for great birding opportunities all year

Over a century ago breweries dotted British Columbias landscape. Hop farming flourished and the Squamish Valley Hop Ranch supplied hops to the British Empire. With the advent of Prohibition, the number of breweries and hop farms dwindled. By the 1970s only a few large breweries remained.

In 1980, BCs John Mitchell and Frank Appleton pioneered North America’s first modern craft brewery at Horseshoe Bay on BCs spectacular Howe Sound. This began what has become known as the craft brewing renaissance.

In 1996, John Mitchell helped design the Howe Sound Brewery and worked as Howe Sound’s first brewer developing our initial recipes. Known as the ‘grandfather of micro-brewing in Canada’, we are proud of his ongoing relationship with our brewery. Today, the brewery continues to brew in the craft style using unfiltered 100% barley mash. We pride ourselves in brewing a diverse selection of flavorful, well-balanced ales.

Howe Sound Brewing Beers

Garibaldi Honey Pale Ale
A refreshing, lightly hopped golden ale brewed with all-natural Lillooet honey and made with barley, honey, hops, water and yeast. It is brewed in recognition of the Sea to Sky regions highest peak, Mount Garibaldi (8,776 ft, 2,675 m) which was named for Italian hero Guiseppe Garibaldi, the man of two worlds.

Bailout Bitter
A hoppy golden ale with recession-fighting properties and brewed with 100% barley, hops, water and yeast. It is a bitter ale for bitter times.

Whitecap Wheat Ale
A refreshing Belgian-style wheat beer with hints of coriander and orange made with 50% wheat, 50% barley, hops, water, yeast, coriander and dried orange peel. It is named in recognition of “The Spit” – Squamish’s world-class windsurfing and kiteboarding venue at the head of Howe Sound.

Timberline Pale Ale
A smooth, slightly hoppy pale ale with a light fruity nose and made with 100% barley, hops, water & yeast. Delicious! It is named in recognition of Squamish BC’s rich forestry heritage and the expanses of fir, hemlock, cedar, and balsam that dominate the regions beautiful landscape.

Diamond Head Oatmeal Stout
A traditional oatmeal stout with an intense roast barley flavors and mildly hopped using Willamette and Nugget hops. The robust flavour is balanced with a smooth creamy finish. It is named for the razor’s edge ridge that comes off the south flank of Mount Garibaldi’s Atwell Peak.

Three Beavers Imperial Red Ale
A strong, malty red ale with an aromatic Cascade hop nose, red ales are becoming increasingly popular in the brewing community, as they can show off the complex malt profile of beer. It is brewed with a selection of roast barley, hops, yeast and fresh Canadian water.

Norwich Inn and Brewery-Norwich, Vermont

February 6, 2020 by Dustin Scoggins

Brew Master Patrick Dakin is proud to welcome you to the Brewery at the Norwich Inn, home of Jasper Murdock Ales. Our Ales have won 4 silver and a gold medal in the last 3 years at the Great International Beer Competition.

Norwich Inn VermontPresident James Monroe dined at the Norwich Inn in 1817 while on a horseback tour of the New England frontier. Alas, history does not record whether he had a beer. But if he did, it was most likely brewed at the Inn. Vermont had no commercial breweries at the time, and the local beers were brewed in very small batches. Even the biggest copper kettle provided just enough ale for the brewer and his guests.

In 1993, this Vermont brewery tradition was revived at the Norwich Inn when Jasper Murdock’s Alehouse began producing traditional English-style ales in 5-gallon glass jugs. By 1995, an historic livery building was renovated and outfitted with a new four-barrel brew house, enabling 125-gallon batches. Though the vessels are now larger, we remain perhaps the smallest brewery in America. Jasper Murdock’s Ales are sold only at the Norwich Inn and you can take some home. Bottled brew is available by the 22 ounce bottle, by the case, or by the 5 gallon keg.

Jasper Murdock’s Ales are crafted from fine English malts, with hops grown in England and in our own hop garden at the Inn. Because filtration can strip flavor and body from a beer, the ale yeast is allowed to settle out naturally in an extended cold-aging period to ensure that all the goodness reaches your palate. The beer is then pumped underground from the beer cellars to our pub at the Inn.

Jasper Murdock’s Ales
Of the many styles we rotate at the beer taps, we usually have at least 2 of these four for takeout by the bottle or the case:

Whistling Pig Red Ale
Inspired by an Irish classic. Garnet-red in color with a rounded malty flavor and a lingering hop aftertaste.

Old Slipperyskin India Pale Ale
A strong amber ale, full bodied, with a hearty hop flavor and a pronounced hop finish.

Stackpole Porter
A dark ale style dating back to the 1700’s. Roasted malt lends chocolate and coffee-like flavors and aromas.

Second Wind Oatmeal Stout
This black ale has the characteristic flavor of dark roasted barley, the sweetness of caramel malt, a full body contributed by oatmeal, and an intense but balanced hop flavor.

Other styles served on tap at Jasper Murdock’s Alehouse
Jasper Murdock’s Extra Special Bitter
Fuggle & Barleycorn
Oh Be Joyful
Last Pick Pale Ale
Dr. Bowles’ Elixir
Jasper Murdock’s Private Stock
Famous Sidekick
Two Patrick Stout
Sweet Barley
Another Ale

Brewery Creek Inn – Bed and Breakfast, Brewpub & Brewery – Mineral Point, Wisconsin

February 3, 2020 by Dustin Scoggins

 

Brewery Creek InnHere is the three story lime stone building on Commerce Street. Brewery Creek Inn has five rooms located above the Brewpub Restaurant. Two on the second floor and three on the third. While the amenities are the similar, each has it’s own personality and appeal. Which room is best? That is for you to discover.

In the morning they serve a “Continental plus” breakfast in our second floor guest lounge. This is a simple casual breakfast offering coffee, tea, fruit, juice, yogurt, cereal, toasting bread, hard boiled eggs and really good sweets! Coffee is available as early as you need and we bring the breakfast out at 8:30 AM. It will be out until 9:30 or 10:00. Your holiday. Your pace.

Brewery
Their brewery is a modern, 15-barrel brew house capable of making up to 3,000 barrels of beer per year. They can make ales or lagers, but mostly it has been ales, which tend to have a more complex flavor profile. They can use a simple one step infusion mash, or more elaborate multi-temperature steps.

Brewpub Restaurant
The Brewery Creek Brewpub is an intimate space with exposed stone walls, hand hewn timbers and beams, supporting posts and a beautiful bar. You will not find another like it. We seat about 50 including our bar seats. Our kitchen closes by 8:00 or 8:30, depending on the day of the week, to ensure quiet by 10:00 for our lodging guests.

Beers
Golden Ale
A golden ale, light in color, patterned after the “Kolsch” beer of Cologne. Moderately hopped and refreshing and about 5% abv. Our lightest beer.

India Pale Ale
Huge amounts of hops both bittering ion the kettle and flavor in the fermenter. The problem with most modern “IPAs” is that they have lots of hops, but no age. Traditionally IPAs were at least a year old before consumption. Ours is about 6 months. During that time the hops undergoa change, mellowing.

Lemon Shandy
A classic drink of the British Islanders, beer and lemonade. Alth0ugh the modern Brits and Ausies use Seven up (gasp!) we are more traditional with the ‘ol lemonade and some lime. Sweetish, and sourish, and beery and refreshing. When the last keg of Summer is gone, no more till Spring.

Pale Ale
It is a Pale Ale, everybody knows what that means, yeah? Good amount of hop bitterness, no dry hopping. American hops.

Scottish Porter
This porter is based on a recipe from the Caledonian Brewery in Edinburgh, Scotland.
