Tree House Brewing Co. (January 2016)

Nice. Will be grabbing some tomorrow, hopefully.

 

Who wants a 30-rack (plus some) of TH?!! Wish those existed during my UMass days.

 

I respectfully disagree on the statement that being rung out by the owner is something that would disappear. I was in Trillium's new facility in Canton just last week and had Mrs. Tetrault ring me out. I will say that getting beer fresh off the canning line is really amazing. One thing I miss about Trillium was getting the bottles fresh w/ the date sticker on them.

 

How's the line out there? Thinking of leaving work a little early to get me some Sappy goodness

 

From what I've seen on FB, it's a max of five minutes now.

 

In and out in no time really

 

Awesome thanks guys

 

This batch of eureka w/citra is crazy good! Reminds me of summer!!!

 

Had to restrain myself from an entire of case of Eureka, but happy to get some Sap. One thing that amazed me from talking to a few people in line is that they didnt even know what cans were available, they just were in line. Speaks volume to what TH is doing that people will wait blind without knowing what beer/what style of beer is available. Saying that in a very positive way.

 

Or that they are there because they know that people are always looking for the beer and they can flip it into something else.

I would like to think they are there for themselves but have come to know better

 

Got home with my stash today and on my triumphant entry into my house, my wife pointed out that I ended up with 26 Eureka and 6 Sap. Wah wah waahhhh.

 

Always check your haul. Tisk tisk...how were the lines?

 

I know. In a rush. I was there around 2p and there was maybe 7 people in front. Steady stream but no back up. Can Wednesdays are getting a little less crazy for now at least.

 

Guess we were wrong about many people buying full cases of Eureka...528 cases out the door. Limits dropped to 4 Eureka & 6 Sap + another can & growlers tomorrow.

 

Question about arriving late: Looks like I'll be in Hartford for training in late February. The training ends ~5 PM. Would that give me enough time to get to TH early enough on Wednesday? Google Maps puts the drive time at 50 minutes, but not sure about commute traffic around there. If you get there right around 6 PM are you good?

 

Hartford traffic at 5pm around the 84/91 interchange can get really snarled. If you could cut out around 4:45, I'd feel a lot better about your chances.

 

To me thats a sign that crowds probably aren't going to thin down very much, either that or more people have just figured out wednesdays are the best time to go. I think we were all hoping the recent huge crowds were because of the holidays, not to sure about that now.

 

Dr J today, ~500 cases, 8pp

Sap bumped down to 4/pp.

 

Haven't been to TH in a month or so. What's the growler limit been lately?
