Beer

[St1ck]

@tdawg87 I was in your hood a couple months ago, and got to drink Heady Topper at it's source. Reminded me of that trade we did back in the day. 

[tdawg87]

Hell yeah. Definitely the best place to get it. 

It's funny that I don't drink it that much anymore. There's just so much great beer now.

Yeah, same here too. The whole new England ipa style has made its way to Southern California breweries. 

On our trip we hit up Alchemist, Hill Farmstead, Trillium, and Tree House. 

[tdawg87]

You definitely hit the big ones. Tree House is insane. Every day they open they've got 100+ people in line.

We fucked up the Tree House visit. We didn't know on Sundays you can only buy one beer, and the line to buy beer to go had to be 2-3 hours long. Never seen a line even remotely that long at a brewery before.

Yeah from what I understand Sundays are the worst day to go. Long lines that move really slow (they're usually cranking).

They probably had the 1 beer thing because of the line. It's usually 2 pp. 

[St1ck]

Yeah, plus they didn't have any of their top beers we were hoping to try. It was a good trip overall, and we got to bring back plenty of Heady, and Focal Banger. 

Also got to see plenty of Super Troopers country. It's crazy to see how much of Boston has changed. Shit tons of new high rise condos going up. 

[tdawg87]

The traffic is still hideous as ever though.

You know what would epic? Free pumpkin beer from one of your friends.

I tried Bud Light Lemon recently and it’s so nasty Cleveland Brown would spit it out.

[tdawg87]

Speaking of good beer, I'm at Vitamin Sea right now. They're just south of Boston. Pretty crazy place. 

The name is really gay though. Sounds like something Adam would come up with.

Bad news, everyone.

All of you delayed too long in deciding on who would be lucky enough to receive free of charge my stock of pumpkin beer, so my wife went ahead and dumped it all down the sink.

A golden opportunity, and all of you blew it.

Idiots.

@st1ckboy we should do another trade. I'm at Tree House pretty often and can send you some cans. Do you have access to Monkish?

Let me know what you want. Heady Topper or something from Trillium or Tree House. I can do a trade if you want any of that stuff. Also Hill Farmstead does cans.

We were hoping to get tree house Julius. What are you looking for from Monkish?

Literally any of their IPA's. I'm not sure what their release schedule is but can for can seems fair. If you can get more than one style I could send you something like 2 Julius and 2 Green. Those are Tree House' most critically acclaimed beers. But if you only want Julius I can get 4 of those. (But seriously, Green is the Facking tits).

Nice. We'll work something out. I'll pm you in a couple days after I talk to my brother when we can schedule a trip up to Monkish.

Is it brewed by Alpine or Green Flash? The GF Alpine beers we actually get out here. They're decent but undoubtedly not as good as the original. 

I think I got Nelson from you when we traded before and it was amazing. But from what I've heard it's just not the same beer since the Green Flash "acquisition".

It's original Alpine, and it's Facking good. You are correct, green flash completely fucked up Nelson, and all honesty I don't think it's ever coming back. We used to go to alpine around once a month to stock up, but ever since green flash bought them we only go down for Keene Idea. 

[tdawg87]

Also, if it happens soon here's a list of what's currently available in cans/bottles:

But Julius is available pretty regularly so even we don't do anything until later it's all good.

If you want to send me some of that along with Monkish I'll send you some Bissell Brothers or something as well.
