Pittsburgh - New Beers & Local Breweries

@brother_rebus I wish I was. There are quite a few other GEs with BCBS and some with BCBBW at some point after Friday. They may not even know that they are getting it.

 

Have to in the sense that that's what it takes to get it. I'm not going to be there at 6. No way I'm waiting 4 hours for a beer. I plan on getting there for 8. If it's gone by then, so be it.

 

I just read that Draai Laag will have the Plague on draft again tomorrow.

 

I'm thankful for all the laughs you guys provide in this thread. Happy Thanksgiving! Cheers

Oh and in the face of complete hopelessness, I'm going down to MD Shadyside tomorrow, but can't be there until close to 9:30. If any of you end up down there, or if you just want to see me make the empty-handed walk of shame, feel free to let me know.

 

Hey @randylangford if you get a ticket at 7:00am, do you need to be present at 10 to pick up your bottles? I'm trying to get a flat screen!

 

You need to be there at 10 when I call your number.

 

So you can get a ticket at 7am and then return at 10? Didn't realize Shadyside was doing tickets.

 

I'm thankful that the 11 hour days Inwork every Thanksgiving aren't in retail at least. And that my gym never closes. Sadly, no beer.

 

Prayers lifted for those who intend to trek to Shadyside GE tomorrow morning. I was considering it but have thought better. Godspeed, brave warriors.

 

Can't like this enough.

 

I'm thankful for being 3rd in line currently for bcbs at shadyside

 

actually...?

 

Wow guys the line here is crazy.

 

Someone ask randy for an extra number when he comes through I'll be there at 1015ish. Maybe.

 

I got an extra ticket for Gunner

 

There are more people in this line than the lines in Florida where my buddies are.... And they are getting Rare and cases of regular each.

 

welp i guess the jury is out. Im on twitter. follow me for some interesting dribble. Cheers.

That's probably because there is more than one place in the whole area that's actually selling bottles without jumping through hoops.

 

I tried a new brett beer at Caliente from Reclamation or whatnot, not a bad start. Commarderie is lacking but any brewery making sours helps. Onedrop was right "esoteric" is correct. Its a style not many people like. The bullfrog old gold even more enjoyable. Cheers


edited: I also love Mad Elf and should be going to pick up a case of bombers if they exist.

 

I heard that Randy is a big penguins fan and you can get extra raffle tickets if you bring him jerseys and/or memorabilia
