\"Retirement<\/a>Friday I went to my friends retirement hoorah held at the the Blacksmith Brewing Company<\/a>. What a great surprise! It is in an old-time Stevensville Blacksmith Shop with it’s history and charm in tact – and the beer is fantastic! In honor of my friend’s retirement from a fire postion with the Forest Service, I had a Pulaski Porter for $3 a pint. The flavor was deep and rich; a smooth, dark taste. It seemed almost silky as I sipped it, yum. Currently they have five choices –Brickhouse Blonde, Twisted Paddle Pale Ale, Burnt Fork Amber, Cutthroat IPA, and of course the Pulaski Porter. No seasonals are planned at this point.<\/strong><\/em>

\nWe were there for the retirement party which meant us old codgers and our younger friends with children attended. No problem, in the non-smoking taproom there were other young families, singles, skiers, and plenty of locals. The old shop handles lots of people easily. They don’t serve food at this time, but many people were ordering from Kodiak Jax<\/a> which offers delivery.<\/div>\n
