Beyond classic spirits, there were also some canned cocktail-like drinks, varieties I haven't seen at other liquor stores before. I was kind of surprised no one offered to help me even though I was there for a while, but maybe they were giving me space. I found more than what I was hoping for!

Texting to get a code, definitely gave a speakeasy vibe! Then following the signs for beer.. getting into a questionable elevator and then freakin out whether I pressed 2N or 2S and wondering which one it was. But just following the signs and it'll get you to your destination! First off, the owners are awesome! Down to earth... the recently got married and loved that they followed in on something they are passionate about. Easy to talk to... super friendly. We shared our love for our crazy pups! (We're the ones that have a Boxer Mix and a lab corgi mix!)... our experiences skydiving with them while we lived in Hawaii and I'm hoping Alex gets to talk Maria into skydiving one day I wish them success in all their future endeavors. How cool is it that you get to brew beer for a living :-) The BEERS They unfortunately only had 3 beers on tap... but they were all AWESOME! We came on a really hot Saturday and their beers were definitely easy to drink, light with great flavors. Call Me - The American Blondie... light and crisp. Easy to drink Working Dog - Saison... got banana notes to it, refreshing and yummy! Definitely a great Saison. BIRT - love me some stouts! Bold and Roasted Coffee flavors... but lighter than your typical Stout! I only had an 8oz pour since they were closing soon but I could have easily polished off a 16oz. I can't wait to go back for more! Can't wait to see what other brews you come up with.... I definitely wanna try the Wedding Day IPA when that comes back!!

Fermentery Form is a craft brewery that opened in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in June 2017. It was…read morefounded by friends and business partners Ethan Tripp, Matt Stone and Scott Hatch. The three started out as homebrewing buddies about a decade earlier. They were all very interested in the art and science of fermentation. Instead of typical light lagers, they brewed various experimental, wild-fermented, aged, fruit-infused, "super-nerdy" beer on a regular basis. After being laid off from his job in the digital advertising industry, Tripp decided it was time for a career change. The trio didn't want to open a traditional brewery because they didn't want to deal with the high costs of ingredients, equipment, a large space, or simply brewing beer styles that they didn't care about. So they came up with a brilliant idea: instead they would purchase wort (the liquid poured off the mash in the initial step in the brewing process) from a licensed brewery which they could then age, condition and ferment the way they wanted. So Fermentery Form is not a true brewery; it's technically a fermentery. This business plan solved all the financial problems of having a brewery by not having a brewery. The trio found a small space in the Kensington section of Philly and purchased 50 used oak barrels from a winery in Napa. Today, Fermentery Form is considered to be one of the finest breweries in the Greater Philadelphia area. I recently visited Fermentery Form while my family and I were on a short trip to Philadelphia. I had heard a lot of great things about them in the past few years and was very excited to visit. Fermentery Form doesn't operate like most breweries, and I guess that's part of their appeal. They are open very limited hours; as of this writing, only Tuesday evenings and Saturday afternoons. The tasting room is a lot like an old-fashioned speakeasy. There's a doorway down a narrow alley. There's no signage, just a green light that turns on to indicate when they are open. You probably won't see the place if you don't know that it's there. I entered to find a very small taproom filled with lots of barrels, a small bar with only four beers on tap, and maybe five other people there. The beers I tried were "Form To Table" (Table Beer), "Form Extra" (Table Lager; collab with Human Robot), and "Barrel-Aged LO-FI" (Barrel-Aged Farmhouse Ale). Every beer I tried was exceptional; each one better than the previous one! I also purchased a bottle of "Merry Merry!" (Barrel-Aged Belgian Strong Dark Ale) to take home. Whatever they're doing at Fermentery Form, they're doing it very well. I highly recommend this brewery to serious craft beer enthusiasts!

If you are a fan of Belgian ales or sour beers, you gotta check out Fermentary Form. I'm a red wine…read moredrinker, but on a hot day, I may forego wine and have a beer from Fermentary Form instead. Their beers are refreshing and incredibly easy to drink, with layers of complexity. So far our favorites are the Origins/Sangiovese, Merry Merry (stout), and the Vieux Selection. Currently they're only open at 5:30pm on Thursdays and accept credit card payments, but make sure to follow them on Instagram for any up to date information, including the beers they are selling for the day. The rare ones have a limited supply and do sell out quickly. You can enjoy drinks in their outdoor patio, but we prefer to buy bottles to go. The bottles come in 750 ml bottles, and are easily good for about 2 drinks.

Five stars for one of my new favorite brewery spots in Philly!…read more The Fishtown/NoLibs area is one of those spots that aren't without their standout breweries since you could do a weekend+ long trip of them! But Future Days stands out among them for being appropriately named since I can easily see myself spending most of my days chilling in their indoor/outdoor seating with an IPA, shooting pool and playing boardgames among good company and a lager, and more if I lived closer. Tucked away on a street where it's the only main destination, Future Days is a spot with two floors of bar settings that cater to all ideal experiences during the five days that they're open. the ground floor has a standard bar space with stools inside, and a wonderful outdoor courtyard for all the chill vibes. Meanwhile upstairs is fully stacked with a main bar, plenty of table settings for groups of all sizes, a pool table, and plenty of boardgames to choose from. aside from a few bags of chips its bring your own food, but in an area like Fishtown that isn't really a bad thing. While they certainly have some good ones on their list, Future Days touts a tap list that goes well beyond IPAs and brings a well round list to your table. Favorites of mine include their smoked Helles lager, Mud Club coffee porter, Strut New England IPA, and Future Days kolsch. Toss in events like barre yoga sessions and trivia nights, and there's plenty to enjoy!

The staff was pretty friendly and the outdoor seating was nice for everyone that had dogs too. They ended up having a food truck pull up which is nice to have at any brewery. With our luck the generator for it was right next to us though so we left pretty quickly after that. Still nice to have and if we wanted to stay we could have found quieter spots. It seems like they are doing well for the tiny amount of space they have. On a nice day it seems like a great spot for a beer.

What a minute! A liquor store in PA that is not a state store! What gives?…read more Actually, did you know that only nine PA distilleries are allowed to open their own stores and these folks were the first with a store in South Philly? This Havertown location is the second. What a minute again! I've bought their fine Lemoncello from my local PLCB store several times. Why should I visit here? Actually there are three reasons. 1. The PLCB only carries the Lemon and Chocolate flavored "Cellos" but the company offers a total of ten flavors. You can purchase the others here like a delicious Mangocello. 2. At the store you can sample any and all flavors for FREE! . 3. Not all PLCB stores carry the product but the company is working on that. This store is generally closed Monday and Tuesday so stop by in the afternoon or evening Wednesday through Saturday. You're in for a treat when you sample one of their cream-based flavors like Orangecreamcello!

The web site defines Pollyodd as an Italian colloquialism for inebriation - as in, "I'm sooo Pollyodd!" I had finished dining at a nearby restaurant and noticed that Pollyodd was open. The employee explained the two types of liqueurs - water or cream based. 5 are water based and 5 are cream based "cellos". I sampled the cream sample version termed Lemoncreamcello then the water version termed Lemoncello. I purchased a bottle of the Lemoncreamcello because of the richer, full-bodied, texture and flavor. The employee recommended freezing the cream based cellos to maximize freshness but assured that the contents would not freeze due the presence of alcohol. Alcohol by volume is 20% (40 proof). Refrigeration is an option however, I placed the bottle into the freezer. The contents remain fluid. The other Pollyodd store is in South Philadelphia. Pollyodd products are also available at wine and spirit stores. Check the Pollyodd web site for additional details. "Salute"!
