The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
Since you have posted about the most famous brewery in my home state, I figured I'd add something here. The brew pub above is their new location which also includes two restaurants. Here is the original started in the 1990s:Originally Posted by Naharaht

This one was knocked down to make way for the new building above. It was originally a restaurant that went out of business and was purchased by Sam Calagione to start his brew pub/nanobrewery. The story goes that he borrowed money from his in-laws (his wife is a Delaware native) and everyone was skeptical because the location had seen many failed restaurants. I first went there shortly after it opened. Back in the mid 90s brew pubs were a novel thing and generally you went for the beer not the food! Now they are gastropubs often with really good food to pair with your beer.
Here is a photo of the brewery site further inland from Rehobeth Beach:
I suppose this part should be in the Tipple thread but this year Dogfish Head merged with Boston Beer Co. (Sam Adams) to form the second largest American owned brewery behind Yuegling. I suppose a merger between two craft breweries is better than it being swallowed up by InBev! Here is a photo of Boston beer founder on the left (familiar in the US from TV adverts) and Sam on the right.
Very interesting indeed Eric.
Also good to know that a few of you actually look at these posts!

As the weather gets cold I look wistfully at the pubs in Spain and the Caribbean!!
As do we all Eric.Unfortunately looks as if the Costa Del Dorset is about as far as I will get before the Spring.
