2015 Brewery Tour Rolls On

While I'm nowhere near on the level with beer gods like Brew Travelers, I do visit a lot of breweries during the year. Punxatawney Phil has just made his appearance and I've already been to 9 this year in 3 different states, with more on the upcoming schedule. My recent trip to Memphis this past weekend added 3 more to my list, and I've got Fort Worth in the sights for a few more.

Here's where I've been so far in 2015:

• Diamond Bear (North Little Rock, AR)
• Vinos Brewpub (Little Rock, AR)
• Stone's Throw Brewing (Little Rock, AR)
• Lost Forty Brewing (Little Rock, AR)
• Blue Canoe Brewing (Little Rock, AR)
• Marshall Brewing Companay (Tulsa, OK)
• Wiseacre Brewing Company (Memphis, TN)
• Memphis Made Brewing (Memphis, TN)
• High Cotton Brewing (Memphis, TN)

I love all my local breweries and pretty much a week doesn't go by that I'm not in at least one of them, but it's really become something fun to do when traveling as well. Lucky for me, my wife is also a craft beer lover so we really enjoy the road trips. At some point I need to go back and count how many I visited last year, but I'm going to do a better job of documenting this year's breweries. Hopefully I'll be adding Martin House (Fort Worth, TX), Rahr & Sons (Fort Worth, TX) and Pecan Point Brewing (Texarkana, TX) next weekend.

Here's a few pics from the past weekend :

First visit to Wiseacre Brewing and found it to be a fantastic place.
