EAT, SIP, MUNCH

Two Roads Brewing…is the wildly conceived and sometimes sour bitten brainchild of four best dudes.  Living and brewing by the philosophy, “take the road less traveled” (haha, us too!) these guys know what they are brewin’.  Team HVH had various opinions about which of their mini flight tastes were tops.  But the one we all could agree upon was their proprietary gose.  Made on premise, this distinctive brow raiser is housed in a shiny, oversized tanker trailer that’s left in the sun to do its thing.

GOTTA’ KNOW:  You’ve gotta’ take the time to mosey on over to Two Road’s other brother –Area Two Experimental Brewing!  Dedicated to innovative methods and tastes, we l-o-v-e-d everything about this industrial looking brew lab (rooftop alert!).  Heard of Hurricane Sandy?  Area Two crafted a tongue teaser called, “Urban Funk.”  Made from a yeast deposited during the storm, this one is pure invention!

JUST BEACHY:  Can you say “seltza”?  These low-cal 100% fresh fruit-made-craft hard seltzers …are glup, glup, glup ahhhh!  Sun, sand, and a seltza’…now that’s a combo!

TAKE HOME:  Being the road-less-traveled lovin’ types, Two Roads had a ton of great sloganed sh’t we wanted to load up on and take home.  But if I had to choose one, their super soft T’s were the bomb!
