The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

Yes you are correct, and good to know about both of those beers, thanks for the heads up! Just moved both to the fridge.

There are a few things in the fridge that aren't necessarily "drink now" for me, they are just still there from before I got additional warm storage (notables being the three RR sours and two additional BA beers from round 3 that are hidden behind some of the other stuff on the top), and some are just in there because I may choose to drink them and may not, but figure they are better off in there than in warm storage

 

I agree. Hoping to pick up 1 or 2

 

I'm frankly not really sure. My latest strategy has been to invite people over for "bottle shares" where it's all my beer and attendees give me whatever $ amount they would have spent on bottles/growlers instead of going and buying those things.

 

Damn... I'm going to have to go on a "like" spree just to make things a bit more difficult.

But seriously--you took the time to look? I'm impressed...

 

Mainly to see if I could cross you off as my sender

Edit and I haven't fully crossed you off yet because I didn't check everyone in the thread against myself haha

 

And I just liked your post...

 

Hint: Target state is surrounded by land.

 

I didn't get a ticket! As far as I'm concerned, I'm not going this year

Ah, I see. I'm always looking to try their scratch series, but I think I have that one. the mango triple ipa was nice

 

VBS: Another nice 2-man share. No 'whalez bro', but some really enjoyable brews! Highlights were the La Cumbre (thanks to @Kylo76) and Hardywood Raspberry Stout. The Ryan and the Beaster Bunny and the Lost Abbey Saints Devotion were both 2013 bottles which held up nicely. Green Tea Ipa was crazy but good, would pair well with sushi IMO. NN is always a treat. Einstok was trash. Zombie Monkie was definitely a robust porter, really nice.
Cheers!

 

Texas locals...I will be in Austin for the second half of this week. Any recommended must sees/dos (beer or non-beer related)? Jester King and Craft Pride are already on the list.

 

East 1st Grocery and Witchcraft are both great stores. Whip In has really good Indian food and a nice tap/bottle selection. Austin Beerworks is a great brewery to go tour. If you can find bottles of Yellow Rose definitely pick some up. Oddwood Ales has a Saison that I think is fantastic. When you're out by Jester King you need to stop by Pieous for some Pastrami too.

 

BBQ. Salt Lick. Beef Ribs. End trip.

Its about 20 minutes from Jester King. BYOB.

 

Put JK on the list a 2nd time

 

Same here -- the worst part is the ONLY reason I even made the effort is because of your comment on the original clue...

 

I live in town and know Steven I won't be attending the release as I'll be out of the country, but I am sending the wife. The plan is to obtain a solid number of bottles between my wife and hopefully a friend or two of mine that I doubt are going to get their full allotment.

This will definitely be making an appearance in the locals. I just hope its as good as it sounds!

BM me and we'll set something up. Anyone else that wants some, we'll set something up to. Just try and BM me this week so I can get some extra bottles if I need to

Hint #3: Omega Point will definitely be in my target's box.

 

Hmm a horse and I think I saw a car. This could be a new trend. I have a little Patriots lego man that might start making its way into my pictures. I know I havent posted any lately but Ive been on a drinking break to lose some lbs. Only 5 long weeks to go.

Want so hard. Love me some clown shoes especially stouts

 

Hint #2 - There are cities in your state with larger populations than my entire state.

 

Damn three days missed and nine pages got to do some catching up. Not a good weekend on my part but at least there was no snow.

 

"Cities" plural?

 

Yes, plural.
