The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

So ISO this!

 

Going to go broke if the societies and brewery only releases don't take a hiatus.

 

I just moved this to my drink box, soon to be moved into the fridge. Love this beer.

 

Okay, going to slow roll this over several posts. An awesome box from @edhizdeid !

It is a beautiful night here in Houston and I was enjoying this while taking pics of the haul. Very nice beer. My wife informed me that I am ISO of more....

 

Pic two of two of the smalls....



And in a very specific order that might tell a story, we have:

New Glarus TWO WOMEN Lager - Only my 2nd New Glarus beer
Upland Teddy Bear KISSES - First Upland. Surprising since I lived in Indy for 20 years.
Three Floyds Gumball HEAD - Have had this on tap before I was really into craft, excited to give it a try again.
Against the Grain London BALLING - WANT! and first Against the Grain beer for me, but not the last....

Three Floyds Alpha KING - had this one before but glad to have the opportunity to revisit.

More to COME.....

 

Round 2 - Siberian Night

 

Two browns one cup

 

How is that? Ratings are shit, but unless I hear that it's actually bad I'll still wind up spending too much on it.

 

And the bigs.....



Against the Grain The Brown Note - Okay...interesting...not sure what to say about this one..
Against the Grain 35k - Surprised this was not a want. Milk stout, right up my alley.

Three Floyds Backmasking - Never had, looks great. love the label

Part of the Portland haul. Cheers!

 

Looking good for Da Bulls and for me too. Made this an NG night
Edit, awesome that this posted after the game ended. Oh well, back to the World Series, let's go KC

 

lets keep this virtual bottle share going... Bottled 2/27/13...11% ABV Quad and a hometown brew ...Drinking great right now

 

Very happy to see that everything made it ok. Looking forward to the missing piece.

 

And the swag....



Against the Grain snifter.
Kentucky Kitchen Bourbon Ball Candy
Mint Julep Elixer

Oh boy, the Mint Julep Elixer is perfect! If you only knew. This brought back so many great memories of my days in Indy and drinking these around our firepit. At one time I actually had a 6 year vertical of full Early Times Mint Julep bottles. I ask for them here in Houston and I get the strangest looks. I will definitely follow the directions to use this to mix my own and then see how it compares to Early Times.

And the family photo....


Thanks @edhizdeid . A great box of deliciousness.

 

Virtual Bottle share. Something simple for a Wednesday and quite tasty.

 

Let me know what you think of the Mint Julep. If you like it, I will be happy to hook you up with a bigger bottle
As for the snifter, it was the one that was released for the Bo & Luke release this year.

 

Game 7 world series bottle share....ftw

 

Yeah, that one keeps getting better and better.
