I tried Yard's Revolutionary Porter and found it to be very nice, with
a hint of molasses. I asked on the NG if anyone had tried it but got
no replies, so I guess not.
The porter was very good but I only bought one six, it being very
expensive at $13 a six.

With some regret, we passed up the opportunity to try the two Yard's
revivalist ales by having dinner at Philly's City Tavern. We went to
Monk's a second time instead. Maybe next time.

I've heard Monk's is great but haven't had a chance to try it. Had the
Yard's Porter at a friends last week. Agree it was excellent.

Been going through a Flying Fish sampler right now. Love the Porter and the
ESB. The Dubbel is a bit too harsh for my taste. Anyone try these?

I've always enjoyed the Flying Fish line - the ESB & Porter are
outstanding. Try the Farmhouse Summer Ale - seasonal, very tasty. The
only time I've been disappointed is when the Porter is too old it
tends to explode. I've had it happen in a variety of places but if you
shop at a good store, they usually turn over the stock or pull it
after too long.

Thanks Leo. Looking forward to warmer weather when I can try the summer Ale.
Hell, I'm just looking forward to warmer weather. :-)

Spare me. Bad yellow pisswater from a deservedly marginal brewery that
didn't even start making beer until long after GW was dead. Not even a
good troll, even if you got me to respond.
