Baltimore Breweries 2023


My friend George and I decided to visit a few breweries on Friday August 4. The plan was to pick up his friend Greg (who lives in Roanoke VA but was staying in Baltimore with his wife Sarah because she was on a business trip), visit 2 or 3 breweries, and return Greg to the hotel in the late afternoon. Since I don't write triplogs unless I visit at least 3 breweries, I hadn't planned on writing this, so I didn't take any beer notes.

We arrived at Checkerspot Brewing a little after noon and tried several beers. My favorite was the Jean Quad.

Me, George, and Greg.


Checkerspot was in the process of moving to a new location about half a mile away. We went over there to check it out and also to say hi to my friends Judy and Rob, who are the owners.


We had planned to visit a brewery or two in Columbia, but decided to avoid all that driving and stay in Baltimore. So our next stop was Union Craft Brewing.

This was taken in the photo booth.


Sarah Ubered over and met us. We all walked down to Baltimore Spirits Company.


Then we went over to Pigtown and visited Pickett Brewing.


We walked to Wico Street Brewing.


Our final stop was Suspended Brewing. I enjoyed their funky ales.


Then we dropped Greg and Sarah off and returned to Severna Park.
