The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

One of my all-time favorite movies.

"Some men call me Tim."

 

Awesome- really excited because I have not had much at all from your part of the country and what I've has has been phenomenal. I think I'll like it too.

 

Generosity is running rampant today!

A little while ago I reached out to Keith @kgncfl for a little help in locating a bottle for a friend.
He says, "I'll send you one too."
I say, "Awesome! How can I repay you."
He says, "send me a couple of shelfies."
I say, "done."

Then today, this box of Michigan/Ohio Goodness shows up on my doorstep...

Sixpoint Hi-Res--Delicious!
OddSide Ales Hipster Brunch--Hell Yes!
Dark Horse BBPT5--Um, really? Because, awesome!
and then some Jackie O's goodness! Oil of Aphrodite, BBA Wood Burner, Vanilla Coffee Dark Ap--I've only ever had regular Dark Ap and can't wait to try these!

Thanks again for hooking a guy up Keith! Your "shelfies" will be on their way on Monday...

 

And my VBS for the night...

Solid--very little barrel but definitely getting some coffee and cacao--this will be great in a year.

 

#VBS yet again courtesy of @Devman171 :



Cheers!

 

My favorite movie ever, but I didn't expect such an enthusiastic response to my comment! My favorite quote doesn't come across well in writing -- "we are no longer the Knights Who Say 'Ni!' -- we are now the Knights who say..." and I used to do an awesome ekky-ekky-ekky etc.....

 

Ha Ha that's awesome. Yes that part doesn't come across well in text, I know what you mean though.

 

Vache! Vache! Vaaaaaache!

 

@Justdoit1234 per your request, VBS. Both of these are excellent!

 

A little Vermont VCS tonight:



It's a really good beer. I got two reviews when buying it: one said it was rich, thick and tasty and another said it is thin and watery. I think the maple syrup adds a lot of sweetness and it is not thin.

Cheers!

 

Totally ISO that Just What the MD Ordered, gotta love that description. Sounds hydrating?

 

"She turned me into a Newt!!!!........Well...I got better"

 

#VBS CS

 

Lol. A little late for iced espresso bro! That stuff rivals Coffee Bender. That 2/6 Abrasive is off the hook,too bad there were hints it might be the last batch
Cheers!

 

I'm confused by the can and bottle both sitting behind the glass full of beer. Did you combine these to make a SIIPA (that's super double pale ale). For sipping purposes only of course.

 

That would have been a good idea, had the bottle first and then the can.

 

I was hoping for Edward 12 hands!

 

I nailed the beers part with 27. Just was too shallow on the styles with a guess of 5. A man that likes to have many options. Living with the rents still im only allowed a little section barely big enough for a sixer . Thanks for the chance tho man!

Did they just release another regular coffee batch? If so im going to have to start including it in my ISO again. I struck out last time.

 

If you haven't guess it by now , @whyteboy003 almost made me rupture another disk today. Really. 2 boxes, 70 something pounds.



Matt and I had another "small" trade a while back where he introduced me to White Oak Jai Alai and it instantly became one of my favorite beers. So I asked him for more, specifically enough to take a bath in. He threw in a want or two as well.

Boom.


Boom boom


And boom, boom , boom.



If I typed all the beer he sent this would be he longest post ever, but gotta hit some highlights:

White Oak Jai Alai
Mexican Standoff Crowler from Due South
My first 3F!
Reuze
MBCP, Last Snow & #properglassware
That Yeti is a '12
A Bells fix since us poor Texans don't get any.

That doesn't discount all those other badass beers in here, but my fingers hurt from typing as much as my back does from dragging this off my decimated porch.

Matt, prepare your porch, because I am packing my part of this trade now, and revenge will be hoppy. And malty. But thanks for hooking me up with one of my favorites, and lots of them. Cheers brother!

 

ISO trade with @whyteboy003...

Holy Crap!
