    That coffee infused Bourbon County Barelywine was seriously worth the three and a half hour drive up there. It was stupid unreal good.

    We had Blue Mountain chocolate coffee stout in the parking lot at 12:30 or so! There were about 20 of us from NC and VA that are on a FB private beer page, we had plenty of beers before hand! BA narwhal, among others...

    If I'd gone next door, I would have slept in my truck that nite! That would have been bad idea jeans with the wife! Already 2 hours later than I wanted to be getting home, oh well...

    @raleighwho yep, I got what you meant about the Answer bar, we wanted too, oh we wanted too...

    We were at the picnic tables, NCBTT group...Jim, Kale, Steve, Blaine, Michael and Greg are who I was with most of the day. Can't make the BA GBS next month, I think I'm in NY for a party, hopefully someone on the page can get me a bottle then.

    It looks like the Whole Foods near me (northern VA) got quite a lot of this today. At least I know I won't have to wait in line next year!

    Looks like it's going pretty quick at Whole Foods in Fair Lakes...

    I need more bottles but can't get to WF today...Sent an email to Brown Disty to see which stores are actually getting GBS in NOVA...

    I heard that many stores will be getting staggered shipments throughout the next few weeks. For instance, Dominion Wine and Beer got 4 cases today, but will get 16 2 weeks from now.

    So is Hardywood doing crowlers of GBS whenever they have it on now, or just this past Saturday? What about their other beers, are they available for crowlers now as well?

    I don't know, it wasn't a question that I asked...they just had crowlers of GBS, none of the other beers, just the usual bottles and cans for sale. No growler fills on any beer that I saw on Sat...

    Are there mobile crowlers running now? that sounds like it might be a decent business to be in...crowlers were already filled, they were hauling them out 30 min before the sale time of 2 pm.

    BTW, have a buddy that did Daft Punk bobbleheads if you're interested...I can put you in touch with him.

    Oh ok gotcha. It seemed too good to be true that Hardywood had a crowler machine now. Maybe they will soon, who knows.

    Ha I may take you up on that sometime about the bobblehead.

    Heard from some there yesterday that they were filling growlers of GBS. My guess is they will continue to fill growlers and crowlers as long as they have enough of it.

    So, Ill be in NOVA (Reston/ Vienna) on Weds. out of luck by 24 hours? Or is there a place to focus in on just in case? Would love to score a bottle.

    yeah you should have no problems scoring as much as you want at Norms...they have 10 cases and as of 15 minutes ago still had 8.5 left
