Now it SHORE is easy to get this info... (NJ Shore Growler Points)

I went to a bar this past weekend in Dewey Beach.  I possibly could have pulled it off ten years ago.  It was pretty obvious that at this age, I was out of my element.  The beer offerings were Bud Light, Bud Light Lime, Coors Light, and I think that was it.  At one point, I bought a Bud Light Lime to wash out the taste of Bud Light.  I remember thinking how wonderful it was.  I cringed.  The point being, no matter which beach/shore point you go to, the beer selection isn't always CBE worthy.  So why not stop on the way, make a quick trip out, or bring something from home to enjoy while you're enjoying the sand and sun.  This is a quick info stop for beach beers done right, and I hope you find it helpful.

#CBExv The Unofficial, Official Beginning of Summer

Happy Memorial Day.  Sometimes, these newsletters write themselves.  Sometimes, not so much.  A plethora of great ideas came to me while I was thinking about the Easter Eggs to include in the #CBExv Newsletter.  Going to the beach?  Here's a list of places to get a growler filled on your way.  Cool beer selection this time, and I'd like to know more about this brewery... Well, here is your CBE Event Pick for that Brewery during Philly Beer Week.  Then I realized I wasn't going to spend 6 hours writing this (or am I?)  Soooo, let's see how far I can get through these ambitious goals, in this, your #CBExv Newsletter.  Please see below.

I've walked in and out of the Whole Foods cooler in Plymouth Meeting a few times.  Maybe that's an understatement.  I'll never t...
