TRÖEGS (tr?gs) *v-tröeged, -tröeg'inAlas, when we arrived, the tours were all booked, with no cancellations. So, we grabbed a beer - I chose a Java Head Stout and Tim had a Nugget Nectar - found a seat, and just enjoyed the atmosphere, beer, and conversation. Instead of each getting a second, we decided to have a sampler ... mmmm.
The act of tröeg'in, ie "I tröeged it" or {slang} "that boy is tröeg'in" -adj. An aura of complete enjoyment and contentment, ie "My you look Tröegy this morning" -n. a new tradition of Pennsylvania specialty ales {from the brewers of Tröegs}, ie "I'll have a Tröegs!"
Since they don't sell food, except for pretzels, at Troegs, we stopped at a Venezuelan restaurant, Arepa City, in Harrisburg before heading home. Amazing! I need to find a recipe for making arepas. If you know of or find any good ones, please, let me know!
fun fact: by law, pa breweries have to be able to provide a meal for every seat in order to serve their beer. so, the guys at troegs do keep 30 small, microwave pizzas in a freezer in the back for 10 bucks each. "We don't recommend them" - Ed Yashinsky, brewery manager
