Serious beer lovers (or, serious drinkers masquerading as serious beer lovers) congregate nightly at The Alchemist Pub (23 S. Main St., 802/244-4120, www.alchemistbeer.com [1]), a cozy brewpub that takes hand-crafted beer as its raison d’etre. With seven barrels brewing in the basement, the house pours a number of rotating seasonal beers, plus a handful of static favorites.
