    Really depends on the week. I've been there when they're unpacking it at 9 am. Other times I've been there at 1 or 2 and it hasn't come in. Yet, other times I've been at 5 p.m. and they've been sold out! A real crap shoot sometimes. It seems to USUALLY be there before noon, but not always.

    No, I have not met Joe yet, or at least not knowingly. I have a feeling I've probably seen a lot of the VT BA's here at the local bars, and just havn't known who they are haha.

    As iwantmorehops said, try the Warren Store. Also, Stowe Beverage almost always has heady, 2 4pack limit.

    Brettzilla! Is it a new batch (I assume)? Anyone know if it'll be bottled at all?

    Hill Farmstead was so stupid today. I stopped there before hitting up the Pig. According to Fuji, 2+ hr wait. Crazy.

    Yeah.. you either have to go at noon or on a weekday for it not to be crazy. But you add the release of some crazy Brew and it's a whole new type of nuts over there.

    No it was crazy at noon. I was like 20th in line and there were easily another 30 people after me...took me over an hour to get beer.

    No complaints if it comes off that way...it just is what it is i didnt mind waiting.
