    Zero "commendments" to you on making the cover photo of the 2012 Anniversary album. Actually, negative "commendments." Edit: You're the guy with poor grammar; it's all coming together now.

    Not going to lie - being called out by the B&S king for using a fake word - definitely the low point of my BA career. The shame is real

    I honestly can't tell if Bait and Switch is serious with all of this stuff, or if he is just screwing with us...

    I’m actually not even sure which is your worst take, bait and switch, or this.

    The correct answer is Bait and Switch

    Any indication of canning? Or even letting growler fills in the future? Would love to try without making a trip but I'm not opposed to another trip down the line...

    Taking the day off and heading up tomorrow. Any suggestions of other breweries I can check out (that are somewhat off 91) on my way back home?

    Brick & Feather in Turners Falls, MA. River Roost in WRJ, VT. And not sure of your definition of "somewhat of 91" but Upper Pass' new spot in South Royalton, VT is on my list of breweries to hit soon.

    Thanks for the suggestions! Unfortunately for me, none of them are open tomorrow. I will definitely keep them in mind for my next trip. I'd also take suggestions for solid shops along the way..wouldn't mind grabbing some cloud drop on the way home.

    Is Hill Farmstead done dropping stouts/porters for the season?

    My bad. The tomorrow part didn't register in my brain. Big Fatty's Crowler Pit in WRJ has a good selection (shares a parking lot with River Roost :slight_frown:). Big Fatty's restaurant itself always has a good taplist as well. As does Trail Break across the street. I've never been, but people say good things about the Brattleboro Coop. When I go through there during ski season I'm always too busy getting maple BBQ pulled pork and desserts from Vermont Country Deli.

    It's a slight detour onto 93, but maybe Schilling Beer in Littleton, NH?

    River Roost is closed on Wednesdays but Big Fatty's BBQ is in the same parking lot, has a solid tap list and a good bottle shop including crowler station attached. It's just a few minutes off 91 in WRJ, easy off, easy on. That, and the Brattleboro Food Coop off exit 3 are your best shops along the way.

    Looks like I will be checking out this restaurant and getting a couple crowlers filled!

    The crowler list looks pretty sweet! Good call.

    They typically hold off on "big" releases during the winter months, but my best guess would be that we will be seeing one or two limited BA stout/porter offerings in the next few months.

    I would not be surprised (although this is purely speculative) if the following beers were released this winter: M&C #12, BA Everett, a BoT coffee variant, and Port Damon.
