Wow, it’s been right at a year since I last provided an update on my Growler list work. A lot has happened since then (I moved from DC to San Antonio, I got divorced, and I’m now working in Africa for the next year)! As you might guess, I didn’t work the list as fast as I wanted … however, I’m now back on track. Here’s my update:
This list is my effort to complete the All About Beer Magazine’s “Growler List.” This is a list of 125 best places in the world to have a beer. Here’s a quick update on places visited since my last update:
From the summary — see my earlier post for explanation:
Total (actual) places visited: 33. I had to remove number 26 (I haven’t been to Mardi Gras yet, Bourbon Street during a festival, but not during Mardi Gras (on my list)) . Those I’ve visited since my last post:
71) Brewer’s Art (Baltimore, MD)
106) Brick Store Pub (Decatur, GA)
122) 5 Seasons Brewing (Atlanta, GA)
Place substitutions: 5
Substituting for a place no longer open: 1
That gives me a total of 39 “visited.” With my being in Africa for the next 11 months, I’ve been able to project these places as some of the next ones on my list:
3) U Fleku (Prague, Czech Rep)
6) Augustiner Keller (Munich, Germany)
28) Zum Uerige (Dusseldorf, Germany)
37) Atelier am Dom (Cologne, Germany)
40) Arend’s Nest (Amsterdam, Holland)
41) Blues Bar (Stone Town, Zanzibar)
56) In de Wildeman (Amsterdam, Holland)
61) Krcma (Ceske Krumlov, Czech Rep)
68) Gösser Bierklinik (Vienna, Austria)
73) Schlenkerla Brewery Tavern (Bamberg, Germany)
74) De Hopduvel (Antwerp, Belgium)
77) Die Weisse (Salzburg, Austria)
78) Halve Maan Brewery (Bruges, Belgium)
96) Heineken Brewery (Amsterdam, Holland)
112) t’Bruges Biertja (Bruges, Belgium)
That will get me to 53. 10 more after that will get me to half the list. Man, this is a lot of work. haha.
