An Off-Centered Dream

I had a dream last night that Dogfish Head of Delaware opened up a Brewpub in Chicago. It was extraordinary: steaks, mashed potatoes, clams, mushrooms–and of course, a massive selection of beers from one of my favorite breweries.  

I think the dream was induced by the Palo Santo Marron beer I had on Saturday at The Hopleaf. Truly, this is one of the most amazing beers I have ever had. I do not know how to describe the scent or flavor, but it is strong, and unique. All beer lovers must try this immediately. 

It is expensive: at the Hopleaf, it cost $10 for one 12 oz. bottle. You’ll need to head to a liquor store with a massive beer selection, like Binny’s or Armenetti’s, if you are in Chicago.  Whole Foods may occasionally carry it too.  Smaller stores won’t carry them. I imagine you can buy a four pack for $10 or $12.
