    Hello, tomorrow will be my first time visiting treehouse and the area. Looking to bring back as much goodies as possible to make the drive worth it. Any recommendations of good bottle shops nearby Treehouse or Hartford Ct that has great local offerings? Not sure what gets distro'ed up near that area to be honest

    Yankee is pretty big, probably your best bet. The CT members probably have a better idea on the Hartford scene.

    FYI, you can only fill brewery-specific glass in Massachusetts, so leave your growlers at home - unless you've got a TH growler laying around. Also, no cans tomorrow, and unless you're there early you may be waiting 1-2 hours for growler fills.

    At 4pp, you'll definitely get cans if you're there by 10am. Probably top 30-50 in line too, so growlers filled before noon too. See you in line!

    Manchester Wine & Liquors will be just off 84 on your way home. They probably have most that's distr & currently avail in CT. It's unlikely you'll find Sip o Sunshine but you might find Captain's Daughter or Palate Mallet. If you're heading down 15/The Merritt into Woodbridge (for New England Brewing Co.) you'll find Amity Liquors right around the corner.

    you're probably gonna head to BT's Smokehouse for lunch (and you should), I'll pile on to the Yankee recomendation
