This week’s beer is the second we’ve seen from the Hermit Thrush Brewery of Brattleboro, Vermont, a state with its own share of boreal habitat for nesting Hermit Thrushes. But their delicate and ghostly voice is a constant presence deep in the balsam and spruce-scented northern forests all summer long.

During a brief moment of insanity after the death of my pet kitty Brady in 1991 (at the age of 17), I attended Vermont Law School to study Environmental Law. South Royalton, Vermont is a picturesque New England town that in 1991 didn’t even have a stoplight. I'll get back up to speed for next week, but without further ado.

Hootie’s mouthfeel might be a bit thinner than the soft and fluffy milkshake character exhibited by the very best IPAs from Vermont, but this Brooklyn take on the trendy New England style is wonderful nonetheless. Good birding and happy drinking! Sixpoint Brewery: Hootie. Four out of five stars (Excellent).

I can’t think of any birder (or botanist or lepidopterist) who wouldn’t find the Kaufman Field Guide to Nature of New England useful during a trip to Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire, or Maine. It is the perfect field guide for the beginning naturalist.

It’s a special bird and while I’ve seen them in Minnesota and Vermont, I’d love to see one in New York. Do you plan to make runs at Spruce Grouse and Gray Partridge ? Yes, I’m planning to spend at least a few days looking for Spruce Grouse. Gray Partridge , on the other hand, is a long shot.

While the comfortably affluent always seem to prefer archaic forms of production and commerce, such as that to be found in a quaint Vermont (or Oregon) village, those of us who live in the real world understand that efficiency and productivity, as well as trade, are what make life better for the vast majority of people in the world.

Less predictable are the particulars of the style itself, which coalesced at several Vermont breweries around the middle of the current decade. Not surprisingly, the challenge is coming from the East Coast in the form of the so-called New England IPA, a beer that has taken the craft beer industry by storm in just a few years.
