Why would one drive to Pottsville?  To join the Molly Maguires? To research John O’Hara?

To dine at the Pottsville  Club? (You’re too late, it’s closed.)

The  last two photos were not taken on my most recent visit to Pottsville. The above photo makes me think that a fall version of Yuengling’s resting at the base of Sharp Mountain would work well.
