Where are we on a Friday night in Whitefish, Montana??

The Great Northern Brewing Company–what d’ya know another brewery?!

Flathead Brewery

We are always quick to try the various Porters and Stouts first. Second (aka final) round, I did the sampler to see what their IPA (abv 8.6!!), Belgium, and Belgium-with added Ginger & Lemon grass beer tasted like.  

Tamarack Brewery is not only in Missoula…

Here we are in Lakeside at another Tamarack Brewery just near our campsite along Flathead Lake. What a nice first day back in Montana having drinks and dinner in a beautiful little Lakeside town after a long hard week:) Thanks Cyrus!

Two breweries and a candy store–Bitter Root Brewery and Blacksmith Brewery Route

Today we were on a mission to seek out the small mining town of Philipsburg. On the way there, we changed our mind and decided to do two brews and a candy store along the same route instead. We also stopped for take away from a small town diner to enjoy a chilly lakeside picnic…

Montana has much more to offer than “big skies” and breweries

Beyond the doors of the Tamarack Brewing Co. in Missoula lies the Clark Fork River, just steps away from the most beautiful old carousel (carousel frame- circa 1918!!). Cyrus had never been on a carousel before so… “tokens for two please?”. After the carousel we stumbled upon a festival! Here, they had food and drinks…

Kettlehouse Brewery- Missoula, Montana

A few barrel aged Brick n Mortar Porters for us at 13% abv in cute lil snifters, and we’re good…  This beer is our favorite one of the trip so far.
