The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

This is nothing short of GLORIOUS!

I love this thread!

 

Ditto

 

I don't know the next time I'll be out that way for sure, but a friend of mine has recently been asking if I want to visit as he just recently moved out to norristown, so I wouldn't be super far away, and could probably swing by the inner philly area in that trip (possibly bring him along as well -- he seems to be bored out there since he's having trouble finding a job haha)

 

Keith...do you smell something?

 

FedEx took box two headed for MN today.

 

Also a swift ninja box is making a house call tomorrow.

 

You have no idea how much time I spent while I was "working" from home composing that shot.

 

LOL... that's what my Untappd/BA Hads are for... my "consumption history" is the only way I could figure out to remove bottles; half of the ones I've "drank" were sent in trade boxes.

I also do a spreadsheet, and that's a LOT more up to date than this is. I've only been into chasing beers for about a year (into craft but not to this level) for about 10... The verticals I have are primarily courtesy of my favorite bottle shop that puts them out as single bottles, and I snatch up one of each year whenever they do.

That was bought for my wife... who, as you all know, cannot drink any right now. Why are you sorry about it though? Something wrong with it that I'm unaware of?

Norristown is about 20 minutes from my house (vs 45 from downtown), and 3 minutes from my office; I use Philly as a general location. Let me know when you are going to Norristown and we'll meet up; first round is on me as a thank you for picking up those beers for me.

 

Happy stout day. This beer is outstanding. Seek it out.

 

Found it! Thanks again for a great box!

 

Virtual bottle share? Usually don't both with pics because of my bad upload (or just general) speeds, but figured it was fitting that I share this one from this round. Putting the glass to good use here!


Edit: Holy SHIT just took my first sip and IMO this comes off as boozier than 120 minute haha, and it's almost a solid 6% lower!

 

It's officially a want now.

 

Not a stout. Getting my fill of freshly tapped Zombie Dust. Pint 3.

 

Going to VA on Saturday - I'll hunt for ya.

Also - anyone that wants to try On The Wings of Armageddon ... Please PM me. Going to the brewery on Saturday as well.

 

I've already had it just not in like 9 months... if you wind up with more than you need though...


edit: I realize this might not have been assumed, but "I'm placing myself at the back of whatever line there is because I've had it"

 

You my friend, are awesome.

 

I just think pumking sucks. It's a really polarizing beer. Some love it.

 

Some don't. Not a fan of Pumking either.

 

Oh. I really like it, one of the best non-stout pumpkin beers IMO. But like I said, I own that much for my wife's benefit, I'd be good with a bottle or two a year.... damn pregnancy, now I'm stuck with it.
