The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

VBS. Bourbon O.E., a BA Barleywine from one of the better Los Angeles breweries.

 

Long winded story that cracks me up, that'll be irrelevant for all others. Three years ago a Little Caesars corporate guy, that grew up in Pittsburh, my brother worked with came out to Carlisle and we went out for late night beers. It was around 1:15am and the waitress went around the table: beer, beer, beer, I'll have an IC.

She comes back a few minutes later with three beers and an iced tea. I guess that only works in Pittsburgh.

 

@NJB145 i was quite literally just made aware of an event, I'm guessing you're aware of, happening at Kalamazoo Beer Exchange Saturday of Memorial weekend which includes KBS and CBS.

 

What'd you think?

 

All arrived safely. Pr0n tomorrow.

 

I have now! Grabbed a couple bottles, because local.

 

Now I feel old.

Thanks.

 

Any floridians I'll be at Cigar City next Saturday around 11 am before driving to Disney. Love to shake hands

 

Not all I forgot to toss one thing in...it can go usps though

 

Top10 want that beer

Lol I turned 10 in 99' good year good year

 

1999 was 30 rack of bud lights and boone farms to impress my lady in college

 

I did not know about this...tell me more.

 

I got a text from my buddy that lives in The Zoo and he asked if I would be back for Memorial Weekend. I told him I wouldn't and asked why. He said there is a CBS/KBS event at the Kalamazoo Beer Exchange. Not sure where it's advertised or even if it is at all. Let me know if you want me to try and get more information.

 

Sooo sloowwww probably not gonna make pizza boy

 

pr0n time!!

First up was @valrxman who was deeply offended by FedEx's incompetence handing his last box. I think he really took it personally.



"So I need to individually package each beer? Challenge accepted"



"Sweet Baby Jesus" --my thoughts exactly when seeing this packing job.



Family Shot! Yeah that's 3 crowler of J Wakefield (#HumbleBrag)

JWB Blood Brothers (had this last night, sooo delicious!)
JWB Weird Science
MBCP (the bottle that started this madness)
Kitka (pretty excited to taste this)
JWB Not Even French

Thanks so much Steve! Your generosity is humbling, and I'll be making some good selections for your return box. If only Colorado has some breweries doing decent sours and funk...

 

So @UcDru shipped the his half of our #pickitupformebro/blind trade started from Morning Bell. If you don't understand, you probably will eventually.

My fears about trading with maniacs were realized. Be wary of the members of this group. They slay wants and crush porches. I like to think I pack a nice box, but I'm always floored by the generosity of the Locals.



Triple Digit Chickow - looks awesome and a totally new brewery to me
Tilquin Geuze - this was my first Geuze. You know what they say about you first, right? Want
3F Behemoth - want
Luchedor Enfuego - want, I've never actually seen it on a shelf
The Abyss - want
3F Permanent Funeral - want
Avery Rufus Corvus - want, my first Avery sour
Smells Like a Safety Meeting - want

Not pictured - Citra High canned 4/27. Should be a want

I was kinda surprised that there was no #datglass, but I suspect that a USPS package Drew mentioned earlier is fixing that.

Thanks, Drew. You're a beast.

 

Next up and not to be outdone, was @UcDru whom I assumed was merely caught up in a fit of silliness trying to attack the South's mountain fortress (guys you know you can't win, right?).

Nope!


The legendary #Sixterhood!!

Now, I don't know what it was, but something about the name led me to believe this was a fun little box of relatively unknown locals.

Wrong again!


They're literally all wants! @UcDru you are a fine individual, even if your allegiances are somewhat misguided.

Rivertown Lambic

Hipster Brunch
#DatBrewery's Citra

And my first Trillium! Rubbel

Thank you so much my friend! Also, lest there be any confusion, hiding behind the guise of a traveling LIF shall not save you from the South's righteous vengeance. Also, it looks like you can't count...

 

I thought it was really good for what it is. It was too bananay or yeasty or something for my tastes. I also got almost no hop bite from it, though it might have been a November realease so that characteristic of it probably would be somewhat faded. Enjoyed giving it a whirl.

 

You got it thanks again for the morning bell....you are right #datglass should have been in there however when I labeled the box up the glass was still on the table looking at me...it will be out this week via usps.

 

Citra high and hipster are 12oz therefore they are .5 each. That equals 6...it fit in the shipper right??
