NC Governor orders all bars and restaurants to close

Seeing lots of breweries and bottle shops around me offering to-go still, along with curbside delivery and in some cases delivery.

 

Same in FL as well. Except restaurants capacity at 50%.
Almost all breweries offering to go selections.

 

Bottle shop near me selling cans and bottles. Doing pours during a window but not filling growlers for some reason?

 

That seems weird (assuming they do growler fills other times). Shouldn't really be doing pours at all, but growler fills should be okay I think. Seen multiple places near me doing growler and crowler fills, even places that typically wouldn't (at least for growlers, obviously not for crowlers).

 

Going to grab some cans from local breweries over the weekend (assuming they are still operating as to go and not completely shutdown). gotta support them in these tough times if we can.

 

OK. From High Wire:
12 pack of Lager $14 (Deal!)
12 Bed of Nails Brown Ale $16 (Also a Deal!)
4 pack of 16oz. 10W-40 Macaroon $10 (Wow!)
Shipping too much to print here.
But.
First time ordering beer on the Internet!
Makes up for the shipping. (Kinda)

 

Also added a 4 Pack of Dortmunder Lager $8

 

Excited I was able to get some good bottles online from burial that they are shipping. I’m in FL. Stouts lasted about 15 minutes, but i was able to snag some. Sounds like they will do something similar again soon.

 

Pretty sure this is Burial's new normal, I think they're going to always be shipping now. If the 'something similar' is putting stouts in the store, then yeah, that won't be all the time probably as they just don't make enough of them.

 

Anyone know who is the carrier? We're bumping 90 degrees down here. Is everyone OK with that? I'm tempted to buy some of what's left.

 

Unfortunately for me, I was working.
They haven't closed us down.
YET!

 

I am a HUGE fan of Burial, with that being said I've opened 4 stout bottles recently and none of them were carbed. Extremely disappointed with that. I spent quite a bit of money there that day so having flat beer is not the best outcome. I wrote them and they responded that there is carb there just low head retention. It's intentional. I let them know there was NO head, no carb, just flat taste. Oh well, I prob won't be purchasing anything to go from now on unless it's some cans from the brewery. Especially with that kind of answer.

 

Good luck with them being carbed when you get them.

 

I purchased a 4pk at Burial in Raleigh back in early February, had one the weekend when I came back and one last weekend, well carbed and nice heads. Not being snarky, I am just wondering if it’s a can vs bottle issue.

 

Just saying.
I ordered $50 worth of beer and paid $25 shipping.
The beer arrived in a single wall cardboard box with about 1 square foot of bubble wrap.
One of my Imperial Stouts was leaking on delivery.
Most likely due to the disappointing packaging.
I don't know if this is the normal shipment method from them or not.
