The night after Shane and I shot the interview with Gary from Craft Ale House, I felt like something was missing, so I went back and grabbed a bottle to-go of the Hog Heaven from Avery.

Ever since I tried my first Dogfish Head beer, I’ve been a fan. Recently, the Olde School Barleywine caught my attention from both my love for the brewery and the style and ABV. An impressive 15% ABV makes this beer not too sessionable but worthy for a review.
