If you haven’t been here yet, it is definitely a gem of Hyattsville. Their mead is excellent - I typically haven’t liked mead and prefer beers, and even I loved their meads. The interior is super cute and they have live music often. Free parking at the park nearby. And they have snacks from 2Fifty Texas. Jenna took great care of us. We will definitely be back.

Unfortunately they are hurting right now and their future is unclear. Make sure you come out and support a local (and delicious!) small business!!!

Hi folks. My H6 battery from the early days of COVID (5/2020) finally died in my 2012 Golf gas base model.

This morning I replaced it with a H5, to save some money.

However when I turned on the car, I was met with an error message that said something about “replace brakes” and the following Christmas tree of dash lights.

When I try to shift it from park to drive or reverse, the dash doesn’t show me changing gears. Also, my parking brake is off, despite what the dash says. However, I do have that small amount of fuel in the tank.

Any idea if I can fix/troubleshoot this myself? Or do I need a tow to the mechanic?

Thanks in advance for your help!
