Pipeworks Brewing Co. coming to Colorado

Well if you don't bring home 62 pounds of beer/ clothes Southwest flies free.... so after all my flying/ buying I finally got hit with a fee...

 

What are airline rules/regulations for putting beer in your suitcase and checking it? I'm trying to figure out if it's worth it to do a Vermont trip and pack some of that stuff away on the flight back. Good idea? Bad idea?

 

I think there are stores in PDX past security that sell beer as well (http://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/visiting-portland-spring-2015-update.276595/). I wonder if there's a limit as to what you can bring on, or if you can literally just fill a carry on bag with bottles from the store.

 

I usually pack bottles in my checked luggage. I use a bunch of Wine Diapers I purchased through Amazon, and have had no issues up to this point. I'm just sure to pack my clothes around the bottles so they're in the center of my checked bag.

 

It's fine. Just pack it well. I've done it at least 20 times.

 

I purchased on of those lightweight, hardshell suitcases specifically for smuggling beer.

 

Good deal, thanks for looking out!

 

Just keeping this thread alive...

 

I reached out to them via Facebook and the response was that they are hoping to get in to CO by mid July. I think this is all revolving around them moving into their new digs which appears to have just happened over the past couple days.

 

Copy that. Thanks.

 

just double checked the interaction, they actually said by the end of July. Sorry to the mix-up.

 

Interesting read on their growth.

Hahaha dang, I was told to shop for Pipeworks at West Lakeview Liquors by one of the brewers at Toppling Goliath, I had no idea that's where those two met, so cool!

 

Updates?

 

Next time I head over to the liquor store, and I remember, I will check to see if it is available in GJ.

Cheers!

 

They're saying by year-end for sure, and hopefully by the end of the summer. That's what they said on another site in the past 24 hours.

 

That would be accurate.

 

Plenty of time now to look, thanks for the update.

Cheers!

 

Total bummer if it doesn't make it out this month, would love to get my hands on the Grouper they bottled last week!

 

I hope i'm wrong, but I don't think they have plans of bringing anything other than the 4 core beers in cans. Hopefully we get some bombers at least down the line because the "fish series" is money so are their single hopped DIPAs.

@TivoliBrewingCompany please advise.
