New England Brewing Co lookout thread

I'm heading to Mikro after. But the Windchester is prob a better moral choice on your behalf!

 

Cool, thanks. My only release bottle share experiences have been the shit shows at Captain Lawrence back when I lived in NY...kind of glad this will be way different.

See y'all at 4.

 

This is VERY different.

 

Their website only mentions Sea Hag, Elm City, and Atlantic; are these the only ones available in stores with everything else at the brewery? Or can you find Gandhi Bot and others on the shelf?

 

haha, the website is way behind. They dont even brew atlantic amber anymore. Bot is rotating and a few 500ml releases are still on shelves, definitely Wet Willy and maybe a few straggling Prem. Murders and Friars Quads. Seahag, 668, and Elm City will be very prevalent.

You can buy the regular stuff on canning and bottling days from the brewery, but the only brewery only stuff is the limited things like Redrum, BA IST, Chardoneighbor, etc.

 

Cool, thanks. What are the bottling/canning days? Sat/Thurs? Is it worth visiting on a Friday morning?

 

Just when a batch is ready to be canned, no set schedule. If you follow their twitter or facebook they will say when they're doing what. Ive never actually purchased cans there but I know its possible. They dont open until noon. The store in the plazza a few hundred feet away (Amity) is a good place to load up on the regular stuff though.

 

is supernaut still around? i'm hoping my Secret Mule (father) can pick me up a couple bottles of redrum, and i'd ask for a growler of captain mosaic if it's still there.

 

Got another growler of supernaut today. There was some left at 3pm

 

Hmmm. Probably gonna wait til payday(Thursday) to get there. Would like to get the limit. Love Premeditated Murder. One of my favorite beers of 2012.

 

agreed

 

So I think I might make this, couple of questions (sorry, first time there)

Do they open earlier, just no bottle sale until 4?

Bottleshare is OK?

Anyone want to do an IP (I see some past traders!!!) I'd love to get a CD 5 or any other strong saisons/sours/IPAs

Is there anything from Allentown PA to there that I should see? I'm thinking of hitting Peekskill.

Anyone wants to share some gas money from Allentown or anywhere along the way...let me know!

Cheers!
Dave

 

Speaking of which, anyone crack one open lately? I'm down to my last two and I've haven't seen any on shelves lately so I'm afraid to drink them so soon....

 

So it looks like I will be heading up....I'll be solo. Anyone sharing or meeting up anywhere, I'd love to hear about it!

 

Will be there tomorrow provided there are bottles left!

 

Sounds like there are a few of us discretely sharing bottles...

 

no idea what youre referring to

 

What time you guys getting there? I'll be there about 2

 

I think the majority of us plan on arriving around 4, maybe shortly before then. The bottles don't go on sale until 4.

 

Yeah, I'll be there maybe just a few minutes before 4.
