I was in Deep Creek Lake a couple of weeks ago. I'll save you some time and recommend you don't try Mountain State Brewing. I think my first extract batch 18 years ago was of higher quality. I should have taken the time to get tasters before getting some growler fills.
If you head over to Wisp Resort, they have an exclusive release in the lodge bars from Jailbreak Brewing called Maple Ridge Porter. Very nice brew. Only caution is they don't serve alcohol until 1pm on Sundays.
Several of the restaurants in town had some Pennsylvania brews I was not familiar with, and certainly wasn't disappointed by.
I didn't stop in, but it looks like the one place in the area to buy bottles was Deep Creek Beverage on 42/219 right next to Archie's BBQ.
Thanks for the tips. Enjoyed the maple Porter at the slopes. Could not talk anyone out of going to Mountain State even after telling them about your suggestion. Ordered a flight of their beers: the IPA was OK; the stout was way off, maybe almost band-aid like, two of us would not finish that sample; the blond I did not like but the wife did; the amber was the best I thought. After the flight, I ordered an Evolution Pilsner, very tasty.
We were very happy with the selection at Deep Creek Beverage. I picked up 4 different Evolution brews: the DIPA, the red, the pineapple IPA, and the pilsner. Enjoyed all of them, but not much pineapple in the flavor, only in the aroma for the PineHopple IPA. Also picked up a 4 pack of Midas Touch from DFH, always tasty.
Thanks again all.
