That's one I've heard a lot of positive things about. I'm just rarely in that area so I don't know when I'll get to try it.

I looked it up and didn't realize this is what went into the old rail cars on Route 6. That'll be a convenient stop at some point.

LOVE BT's!

Only went once but Goodstuff smokehouse in Blackstone was good as well. Either are better than Durks.

I don't remember much about my experience at Wes's in the early aughts, but I can sill hear the radio ad clear as day in my head.
Big Fatty's has been on my list to try as well. Usually I just time it wrong though - we're never staying near White River Junction when we go to Vermont and it never fails that we're passing through too early in the morning, or the wrong day or something. But I'm glad you mentioned them, so I can make a point of it next time. River Roost is a must stop anyway

That’s the play! They’re in the same parking lot. Big Fatty’s also has a section for cans to go with some of the better VT breweries. And usually a couple from Hill Farmstead on draft.

I thought I heard they do growlers too? We did stop there last time but Fatty's was closed, but River Roost was open.

Don't worry about Somerset. It may have had crimes, but it doesn't have much of the "element" - if you know what he means.

The "element" must be ambient noise.

Oh they might, I just haven't tried that. When you walk in they have a little beer shop with the cans and bottles to go. I'm guessing the growler fills would be at the bar.

The "element" isn't ambient noise. It's a dog whistle.
