The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

Damn, one minute to spare. Been traveling for work thr last 2 wks, with a little mini vacation thrown in. Just now getting to consistent Internet. Thanks for the opportunity @heystevec

 

Ok at the check out line with the kids ... There seems to be one clear cut winner with some runners up that tied.

Official results to be announced when groceries are unpacked and kids are watching a movie!

 

Interested to see if you ate at one of the restaurants I posted. It's a place I really want to eat at.

 

Was it 1pm eastern time? This sucks!
The quest for HF goes on.

Very cool you are doing this though.

 

I think it can generally be assumed that the time zone matches the person posting it. GL finding some though

 

I know. That is why I did not put any guesses.

One day, some HF will be mine. One. Day.

I still can't believe how cool it is that some of the BAs here are giving away HF. What a great group of people!

 

Ed personally I think that should hold out for something better for your first HF taste (mine was Edward!) however if you'd like it I will send you a bottle of Dorothy, no strings attached.

 

Mostly packed. 380+ oz. Only 3 wants, sadly.

But some excellent stuff. And some very new stuff. And everybody likes HF and Pizza Boy and Carton.

@edhizdeid I've got some Clara. . I'll let it go cheap. LOL

 

If its me, I am a sausage/pepperoni man. Still out of town so haven't been able to check on anything yet.

 

Is this for real??? I have been trying to get my hands on some HF for a while (I assume like quite a few BAs) but with what you said, you got me conflicted.
What would make it better for me to wait for something like Edward or Abner (just the mere thought of these...)? I am honestly curious about this as I know you have already tried a few of their brews and before accepting your very generous offer.

 

Tempting...

 

I should say that I've never had Dorothy but I've not seen it talked about with any type of desire that some of their others get. If I had anything else available I would offer it up instead.

 

@PA-Michigander again proving why he is the man!

@treznor was the winner with 5 guesses!

The other 5 were - Husk (mentioned), McGrady's, Woody's (mentioned), Baguette Magic, Rue De Jean

PM incoming @treznor

EDIT: I am in love with Charleston! Great city and an amazing beer scene.

 

How was Husk? The menu looks awesome. I just bought Sean Brocks new cookbook.

 

Thank you. I just can't resist such an offer. I will BM you my info shortly.

Thank you for being so generous. I truly appreciate it.

 

GREAT! The wife and I are obsessed with Sean Brock as well. We went for lunch - smaller menu but easier to get a reservation. 100% recommended

 

ISO: Trip to Charleston FT: My kids for a week

 

Awesome! I've had a sip or two of E but that's the only Hill Farmstead I've tried, so really stoked to get to try it! I sent over a shipping label to you. Its the first time I've ever sent a shipping label, so not sure if I did it right...

 

you are all good!

 

So I feel like a lot of you guys know a lot more about different styles and beers than I do (I'm still a newbie in comparison to a bunch of y'all for sure). Just wondering -- how fresh should saisons be consumed? I went to a party last night where a bunch of people brought and left beer, and the guy hosting doesn't really drink anything (and when he does it's usually ciders or hard liquor), so between myself and the only other person who crashed we got to divvy up a small amount of beer, but I did get to grab a bottle of Opal from FW, bottled in May. Don't know if I should feel in a rush to drink it or not.
