2 Neptune’s Brewery written to the words of Shirley Bassey’s - (Where Do I Begin) Love Story
Where do I begin to tell the story of how great a beer can be…The hopy story that is older than the sea…The simple truth about the beer Bill brings to me…Where do I start? Hmmm… where do I embark? I think on our way out of Yellowstone, two days after I tied the knot with Patti Lynn. Our agenda was Canada, we wanted to fool around in Glacier and Banff, but we were exhausted and didn’t fancy a voyage through the Big Sky country of Montana-that’s were I’ll start! Like a spilt brew that cools the pavement with a patent leather shine…we holed up just south of Livingston, Montana at Pine Creek and embarked on exploration. Our campground host gave us the 411 on this brewery in town, including the off the wall hours they were open, from 4 to 8 p.m.

It was then, that Neptune’s Brewery came into my life and made the drinking fine…sittin’ at the bar we hit it off real quick with our story of “beer and breweries” And how it gave a meaning to this empty world of mine! Chad and Bill began to fills my Pints with some tasty and very special things! With Jimmy Buffett songs, with wild imaginings Bill fills my mug with so much Toad Back Bock that anywhere I go, I'm never lonely as the girth I gained from consuming too many damn good beers this year including, this dark brown full-blooded German bock , who could be lonely? I reach for my waist, it's always there!

How long does their beer last? Can beer be measured by the hours in a day? With so many yummy brews on tap I have no answers now, but this much I can say, The Pale Ale, Brewmaster Bill Taylor's personal favorite is one I'm going to drink 'til the stars all burn away…And Bill will be there as He fills my Growler with very special things like his wife’s favorite Clipper Nut Brown, the smooth Chocolate Cream Porter and my favorite the extremely hoppy Shark Bite I.P.A with an added bite.

To tell the whole story of how great a this place can be will take volumes, The sweet texting story that has continued between Bill and Chad as Patti and I discover breweries and update them on our travels is older than Neptune’s sea! The simple truth about the joy of finding this place and the love it brings to me and Patti! Where do I start? I’ll start at a bitchin’ brewery in the gateway city of Yellowstone…And he'll be there.
