Brewery Update – Part 2
We hit up a couple more breweries while in Moab, plus a winery that deserves mention. Alcohol is a challenge in Utah, and it’s hard to acquire anything with more than 4% outside of a liquor store, even at the brewery itself. Tasting notes:
- Moab Brewery – decent, though they were out of several specialty beers (double black IPA!)
- Eddie McStiff’s – uninspired beer, but they made a decent mojito (with 2.5 shots of rum, none-the-less)
- Spanish Valley Vineyards – a surprise! We went to the winery not expecting much, but were impressed by the 100% estate-grown grapes on their 5 acres. We came away with a bottle of Gewurztraminer, Merlot, and a Cherry wine. By the way, the place is for sale – turn-key operation, plus a residence, for $825K!
