The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

A lot more bottles to post, but I'm pretty tired so I'll update this soon!

 

VBS

 

I'm gonna go with Mason - 9-22 and your wife - 12-16. Thanks for the chance!

 

Ah, Mistletoe. Probably the best beer to come out of my homebrew club. Glad Howard is getting some love out there.

 

was able to just pick up a few of these guys in CO Springs can't wait to pop one.

 

Pretty funny, I did pretty much the same. Boom Island Yule, Bauhaus Jingle Fever, and OHB Event Horizon. Was talking to the brewer (Steven) at the local release party and was trying to get some info from him on Omega Point, their first ever brewery release and couldn't get any solid info. He's a cagey fellow Really liked this year's Event Horizon.

 

Nice! Pretty sure I met him very briefly this year at GABF, but its possible I'm misrembering (GABF does that to me...).

 

Nice, yeah, I saw you checking in from that release party.

really nice that EH is pretty easy to find, I come down to my parents for xmas every year in Durham and I can always find it. Also picked up some Duck Rabbit Anarchy, wishing I had grabbed a few more of those because they were already gone at Sam's when I went back yesterday. Did pick up some Green Man Dweller too. Good time of year for big dark beers in NC!

 

So far, Kevin, @Lehighace06, had it closest. F-111 and F-22 are correct.

One more aircraft that I had a decent amount of time working. Never assigned to it directly, just helping fellow airmen as opportunity offered.

 

Presuming this means "so feel free to guess again", I'll go with F-111, F-22, and B-2's...unless you want to give a small hint as to the 3rd aircraft in which case I take my guess back pending research into that clue.

 

Winter Sixer Hint #3 - You've had a few Jack's Abby beers but I'll be sending at least three that are new to you.

 

Some friends are opening a brewery in 2015. We were there to celebrate. Waking Tree Brewing

 

It is not the B-2, although I've helped with that one too.
Hint: I've worked on the F-111 and F-22. The F-111 as an avionics technician, the F-22 as the lead avionics test engineer. Loved both jobs. The other aircraft was used by the air force, but is not any longer.

 

Based on the retired status (B-2s aren't) I'll go with F-117s in addition to the F-111 and F-22s.

 

F-111, F-22 and A-10.

Thanks!

 

Mason 9/15 Wife 12/16 ....Cheers!!

 

I will apologize to my target now. It's been a busy weekend, and I couldn't drag my butt up to wait in line. I will make it up to you, though.

 

And here are the rest of the bottles from last night.



Coffee ANTEAD








And that's it! It was a pretty awesome night. The best of the night for me were:

KBBS - Best adjunct stout I've ever had, tied with Rare as the best beer I've ever had.
Assassin - Right behind Rare as the best non adjunct barrel aged beer I've ever had.
West Ashley - Best of the apricot sours and the best saison/farmhouse ale I've ever had.
4 Roses Mexican Cake - One of the best barrel aged adjunct stouts I've ever had, right behind KBBS.
Aaron - Best barleywine I've ever had.

Cheers, guys! Til next time.

 

F-111, F-22, F-117

 

I missed Lehigh's guess of the F-117, so replace it with C-141
