Black Friday Weekend Trip - The Beer Thrillers

I decided I needed to be away from the area for a bit. Recent stuff just made me not want to be at home anymore and so I figured a trip out for some breweries would help the mood a lot better. I had told Jesse and Amanda I would pop into Sworn on Black Friday so I went there for when they opened, had one of their delicious new stouts, and then I was on my way. Original plan was to make it to Wheeling, but of course, as plans often go with me... they didn't quite work out. Luckily, this time it was nothing bad, it was just me not quite getting to Wheeling by the end of the time. I made it out to Washington Brewing by 10 PM and figured that was good enough.
