    (for the summer style line when everyone is not packed like sardines in the building to avoid cold)


    count on an hour when your foot finally gets in the building

    You wouldn't happen to have been the guy who tapped me on the shoulder (black and white striped T-shirt) asking about how long I had waited a few weeks ago?

    No, that wasn't me. I was with my girlfriend who apparently thinks I owe her something for those 3 hours of waiting. :slight_smile:. There was a guy from FLA a couple of people behind me...

    Had Madness #2 sell out two people in front of me. Couldn't believe it made it even that far and I had given up hope on it long before getting inside, but it was tough getting so close. Wait was long but the weather could've been so much worse, so I'm thankful. Overall, awesome trip. Can't wait to start enjoying all these awesome brews.

    Cracked open an Elaborative tonight. Outstanding American sour. Definitely can taste the walnut in the aftertaste. If there's any left on the shelf after this weekend it should be a crime.

    You went on a Saturday the 17th juicy and were 6-8 people behind me but you are correct it took about 2 hours when all is said and done.

    HF special release beer is not shelf beer even if its on a shelf for 2 hours

    Updating the website now. Elaborative is gone. <100 bottles of Madness 1 and 100 bottles of Civil D. remain... Walden now on tap. Everett and Clara will be on the shelf Wednesday. Society and Solitude #5 will follow What is Enlightenment toward the end of the week.

    Any plans for S&S 4 to make comeback? Really enjoyed that beer. Although 5 was fantastic as well.

    Was waiting on arrival of new Galaxy crop. Thus skipped 4... but now that new crop has arrived, should brew it again within the next 4 weeks.

    Hi all,

    I am planning a trip to Vermont within the next two months. Is there a better time to go to HF than others? Can you suggest dates that would coincide with releases or something of that nature? Thank you & cheers!
