    Got a question for all of you. My girlfriend is in new hampshire for a family reunion and will be headed through southern Vermont on her way home. Was wondering if there is any shot she would be able to find some heady down in the southern part of the state. Im from central illinois and have been dying to try it. Thanks in advance for advice/comments

    Thank you for the link. I have been to the website and looked at the "where to buy" tab but from my experience out here with 3 floyds being fairly close, just because the site says its there doesnt mean it will be. Haha

    It's kind of a crapshoot as most of what the stores get doesn't last long. And I don't believe any of the stores they distribute to are in the southern half of VT. Your best bet might be to figure out which days coincide with her trip and then call around to stores to see what time they usually get their shipment. But you'll still have to get up to at least Montpelier to even find a store that gets it. Good luck!

    In southers VT the answer with the fest this week is almost certainly a no. If you are driving hours up into VT forget it.

    Hey thank you for the responses. I think she is going to some festival at some point during the week. She said it was supposed to be pretty large. Is that what you are talking about @jbrew?

    I believe he is talking about the VT Brewers Festival which is in Burlington, VT tonight and tomorrow. So there should be the regular Heady deliveries and back to normal traffic next week.

    Montpelier Vt is as far south as it can be found and only on Friday afternoon at 3:00pm at Hunger Mountain Co-Op

    Cases at Beverage Baron on Monday's in Barre, not Montpelier.
    I can't afford to drive to Barre or Montpelier for anything less than a case.
    Hopefully Alchemist will get a new retail store open soon. They should have
    bought their neighbor out and tore down the house and putt up fences.
    Seemed one of our locals wrote once "That good fences make good neighbors"

    The lady at The Mad Taco says Monday is the day the restaurant accounts in Montpelier get their HT so I am half right, thought it was Hunger Mountain as well but if I'm wrong, sorry. But since the OP may be a troll it's all moot.

    The new Alchemist retail operation is on its way but doors won't be open for awhile. Watch this thread for updates, etc.: http://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/official-the-alchemists-second-brewery-thread.188553/
