This is one great article and is making me crave my Heady Topper! I almost forgot about getting some
and that my visit to Vermont is not complete without returning with some Heady! I suddenly become very popular just before my visit with friends and family. 
It makes an awesome gift but you have to keep it cold on the way home so stop and get a couple of bags of ice and remember to bring a cooler to Vermont! I would really like to visit Hill Farmstead Brewery in the fall. I understand the scenery is also outstanding! I must say Hotel Vermont has got it going with the tours!
Boston.com is very kind to the state of Vermont and has quite a few very complimentary articles on a regular basis, mostly in the travel section!
