    So, a spur of the moment trip came up and I will be heading to Burlington on the 22nd (Sunday) and was wondering if there is any hope of finding Heady in the surrounding area either on a sunday or monday. If it's not available it won't be the worst thing in the world but since I'm in the area I figure I should give it a shot. Also, what other beer should I be on the look out for that I can't get in Maine? Second Fiddle has been sounding really good, is that still available in the area? Thanks for you help.

    Was just there on Sunday/Monday morning and could only find Heady at bars, not at the liquor stores :slight_frown:

    Thanks for your replies. I see that there a few places in burlington that get a shipment on monday that i'm going to try and get. Getting dinner at the farmhouse tap and grill and it looks like they've got a bunch of great beers on tap so i'll be able to try some HF and Lawson's as well as Heady.

    Farmhouse has HT in cans behind the bar. If they don't have it (Farmhouse is more likely to sell out of Heady quicker than one of their sister restaurants). El Cortijo (owned by same company as Farmhouse) seems to always have a case of Heady behind their bar and sometimes HF on tap too. (note: restaurants can't sell to-go beer, so it's on-premise drinking only).

    Rte 7 Liquor in Shelburne gets their shipment around 10am Monday - 1 case limit. Health Living right down the road get`s their`s an hour or two later - again 1 case limit.

    This was accurate as of the last week in May.

    Thanks! what's the scene usually like at Healthy Living? Does it sell out super quickly or should I get there nice and early?

    How did you make out finding Heady on a Monday? I am in the same situation this Sunday/Monday

    well... I had one too many Headys the night prior so I woke up feeling not so great the next morning and didn't even want to go searching for it.
