    Hello all,

    I am in Vermont (Waterbury) for a few days for my honeymoon. We have gone around a bit and have found 0 Lawson's. Bottles would be spectacular, but hell, I'd just love to taste some on tap. Are we outta luck? I have done some digging and it just seems really hard to come by.

    We have a car and would be willing to trek down to Warren.

    Any help is much appreciated. Either way, there are some fine ass beers here.

    Hunger Mountain Coop in Montpelier and Beverage Warehouse in Winooski got Sip of Sunshine today and that beer is on tap at Prohibition Pig if you can't make it out for a bottle. I'd go quick if you want some.

    As of one hour ago they had 45 cases of Sip of Sunshine left at Beverage Warehouse in Winooski...one case limit per customer. I'd call ahead before you head out as the work crowd may just be arriving. A bit of a drive but you could always take your wife out to eat at the Farmhouse in Burlington for dinner.

    Just tasted the new batch of Sip at ProPig, delivered a few hours ago. Even better than previous batches.

    Ah excellent. Pro Pig was out yesterday. Will be heading there shortly. Thanks for the tips. Any chance of double sunshine?

    Not until Aug 28/29. Sip of Sunshine is a more than adequate substitute though.

    I'm sure it all depends on how much was brewed, what's coming up etc. but does DS hit draft around Waterbury when bottles are released?

    Sip of Sunshine is on tap at Pro Pig and Blackback. I was at both a few hours ago. And yes, it's delicious!

    Warren Store reported that they are getting three deliveries this week, due to the cancelled Lawson's appearance at the Waitsfield market. It's probably the best Lawson's week you could have hoped for.

    When does Hunger Mountain regularly get Lawson's deliveries?
