The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

Well this has already taken off considerably from where I left it.... wow @jawas. Well done. I'm also very excited to see the challenge.

 

Landed safely and ironically enough landed during a home inspection on my house. Hope the people that are buying it don't mind, but the porch destruction might show up on the inspection report.

Sorry for the delayed post, but was out to dinner b/c I couldn't be at my house during the inspection...



Thumber Island Coffee stout - Never heard of it, but I love coffee stouts looking forward to this.
Brooklyn Black Chocolate stout - Only have had a few Brooklyn beers and have enjoyed them.
Focal Banger - Mega want - Love the new can!!
Treehouse - Eureka - want.
Treehouse - SAP - want.
Treehouse - Lights out - want.
Treehouse - Green - want.
Treehouse - Glass - want.
Second Fiddle - really looking forward to trying this after hearing @Ncpogs review.
Sea Hand IPA - drinking this one now
Bright Ale - Never heard of it, but looking forward to it.
Elm City - Never heard of it, but looking forward to it as well.

Thanks again @Littlelotte88! Was looking forward to some fresh hoppy beers and you nailed it!

 

Last year at the beginning of may a friend went to VT specifically to get two cases of heady... I got 12 cans from him, and he "extra'd" me a second fiddle and a hodad... I had second fiddle almost two months later, and it was still completely fantastic, if my additional words have any impact...

 

I am terrified. I also have no sense off aste or smell due to this sinus infection. Ergh

 

Phew i am so glad it arrived safe. Shipping gives me anxiety

 

OH MY GOD ME TOO. I've shipped... maybe 6 or 7 boxes now (too lazy to keep track for sure)? I had two bottles break the first box I ever sent out (a trade not on this site... both of the broken bottles were extras in a box of ~19 bottles) and nothing since, and I STILL freak out until the recipient posts the pr0n....

 

I feel like for KBS last year's is always better. I really don't drink it anymore until it has a year of age on it and I feel like it really hits its stride around then.

 

And Erika is worried about filling a box sufficiently!

 

Your very welcome man! Enjoy!

 

Appreciate the tip, but mine won't last that long!

 

I nominate myself to be the next recipient of @Littlelotte88 box. Is it bad that im from MA but cant seem to get my hands on friggen treehouse!?!

Thanks for this one! The last few Rum BA beers I've had were awful (including the new Lost Abbey one). My faith has been renewed

 

This beer is outstanding and flew completely under the radar IMO. Wish I had more!

 

Hopefully it becomes a regular part of their yearly lineup, assuming this is the first year its been made.

 

I hope so too! It was originally brewed back in 09 as "Black Tot" http://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/30/52526/

That batch ended up being infected as all hell and gave the brewery a "Black Eye", hence the name of the new batch. Glad you liked it dude.

 

Here here though you're MUCH closer and an easier drive.

 

I know. Its mainly due to the fact i wouldnt be able to get up their until saturday. and by then id be lucky to get 1 of their beers. 3+ hours of driving for a 4 pack/growler just.... idkkk

 

Daily LIF update. So many of you were very close yesterday. Quite a few of you got everything right except for the last question. The last question was not answered correctly at all yesterday. It was however answered correctly a few days ago. I think this one will be wrapped up today.
