    Perfect, thanks! I'm trying to decide if it's worth it to get a Rental car, or just stick with the subways system, but from what I can tell, Nightshift would be a trek from downtown. Plus the rental car would save me time on my travel to Vermont, but it's at least $200 more expensive not including any parking fees/gas.

    I'd be interested in trying to make a Locals Bottle Share.

    Dear Texans,

    I got a request from my local bottleshop owner for 2 bottles of Raspberry Temptress. Not sure how accessible this is for any of you but if you would be able to score those, Temptress and (if it's still around) a BA Temptress I would love to work something out. If Barrel Aged Legion is around I would love to try one of those as well. I would be willing to work out a trade or cash/label which ever is preferred.

    Feel free to shoot me a BM to discuss details. Thanks!

    I believe a crowler of this will be added to the list of stuff I'm taking home for various boxes that need to go out soon.

    Haha yeah, she's a little annoyed that every family visit has turned into a beercation. Her family starts accumulating Heady for a couple weeks before we show up now too, which has really spoiled us when it comes to IPAs (even if @LehighAce06 wouldn't drink most of the accumulated stash). :wink:

    They're crowlering that? Awesome!

    Interestingly enough, I'd kind of like to try Heady with some age on it.

    Every time I've gotten it, it's been super fresh and I drink it too fast to save any. The man himself has said that he thinks it's still a damn good beer with even a year of age, and I'd like to try that out; I would love to do a side-by-side of a week-old, month-old, and year-old can.

    Lol this is my second straight LIF where someone guessed correctly on the first guess. I think I should start being more creative :slight_smile:

    Why yes they are, sounds like I should have got more than one Crowler!

    It should, they just put it on yesterday. They had an orange/cinnamon sour or something that was on this weekend but it's gone now so you never know.

    So today my local store got the last few cases of this:

    [​IMG]


    In honor of, I will share my haul LIF.

    I ask before you submit your answer that 1. You've never had Carton Coffee. (don't have any pending trades, etc for the legal minded few)
    2. Really love cream ales.

    My LIF for a couple cans of carton coffee + other local IPAs and such like JAWN, Nugget Nectar + other local stuff, will be a simple question. When I go craft beer shopping, what sports teams hat do I wear?

    Bonus round, once the someone guesses correctly, I will pick from random all the wrong entries, and send out another box with 2 cans of carton coffee + extras. Once someone guess correctly any posts after will not count.

    Good Luck.

    I'll go with the Flyers, but feel free to DQ me if you feel I don't meet the criteria.

    If I do win feel free to replace NN/Neshaminy with hyper-local stuff like Cape May or Forgotten Boardwalk, the locals you mentioned I can get :slight_smile:
