    Picked up last weekend and while I'm only a couple bottles in, I (like others, clearly) couldn't be more pleased. Dark Matter with Barrel Aged Coffee and the Tawny Port Barrel Aged Inner Space were both killer.

    its these kinds of posts that make me even more excited for my run to Maine and pick up. I love all these positive reviews of what is waiting for me in the cooler up north!

    1st year Society member. I agree, that one was great. I wasn't sure how I'd like that, as I've never paired PB and banana, but it worked for me. The BBA PB StayPuft too...whoa.

    Crushed a Willet Inner Space last evening. Little bit of barrel heat on it, but I've never minded that with these beers. Otherwise, another excellent stout.

    Has anyone cracked the Member's #4 mag yet? I feel like once the covidiots ruin back to school and I have my kids home this fall I'll have to solo dome it out of necessity.

    Isn’t it Weller? Either way, I had it a couple of weekends back and thought it was great as well. I also had the mezcal version and while I enjoy mezcal in cocktails, it was a bit much for me.

    Not yet, but when I do, I'll report back. Also plan to solo dome it in a single evening and, the way things are these days, it will surely be out of necessity as well.

    The Weller Inner Space is awesome, but I liked the Port version even better.

    I just picked some up today. The process was as easy as ever. They have released some exciting stuff during the quarantine period.

    I had just under twenty bottles tucked away. These add up quickly! I have work to do.

    I went to the taproom for outdoor seating today. Gotta say, it was pretty awesome being back at a brewery for the first time in four months, and the tap list was sick.

    So I had a friend say that his friend got pulled over (Massachusetts plates) right at the border and was fined $1,000 dollars because apparently Maine isn't accepting visitors without documentation. Anyone who lives in MA here heard or had any problems?

    Didnt see anything about $1000 fines here. https://www.maine.gov/covid19/restartingmaine/keepmainehealthy

    but does says visitors must get a test 72 hours prior to visiting or stay in quarantine for 14 days after arrival...Except for people from VT or NH. They have no quarantine requirement per the Maine website due to low infection rates.

    101 new cases in MA today, a state of 6.9 million.
    37 new cases in ME, as state of 1.3 million.
    I'm doing the math and the rate of infection for ME>MA.
    Unfortunately, cops aren't good at math.

    The state most be loaded if they’re fining every out of state plate I’ve seen the past month.

    I'm from NH, went up last Sunday to pick up. Didn't have an issue. Didn't even see anything to indicate any sort of stops. Just had the typical highway signage saying out of staters needed to quarantine for fourteen days. You know, the one all the out of staters ignored on their way up to their lake houses for the weekend.

    If any members need a proxy during this time I've helped a couple people out as I'm about 20 minutes away from the brewery. Feel free to message me. Cheers!

    Residents of NH and VT are not required to quarantine. Residents of other states are.
