Long Live Beerworks (2020)

Long Live's imperial stouts and fruited Berliners are basically an automatic purchase for me as well. Found a can of Small Joys from last summer in my stash recently, can't wait to crack because that was the best coconut stout I've ever had. But yes, as far as lagers it is pretty much Buttonwoods or bust for my most local spots.

 

Praying for you. I don’t have the guts to chance it, even though that’s one of my favorites. Please let us know how it goes....

 

That is pretty ridiculous. It’s not like they’ll never brew it again. They brew it every couple of months. It’s OK to wait - it’s just beer.

 

I’ll be up here in MA holding my hand up to the window and staring longingly into this Covid world with a tear rolling down my cheek...

 

I picked up a few 4-packs this week and it is excellent. With no tastings I was debating whether to get multiple 4-packs, but who am I kidding sight unseen LLB is a must purchase in large quantities. My dorm fridge is all that prevents me from going close to case purchases with their releases lol.

 

Would love to make a trip at noon this Friday. I’m not familiar with the area - is it easy to navigate and get in/out? Quick process at the pickup window?

 

LLB is kind of inside an "up and coming" neighborhood (to put it kindly). But their whole mill complex is almost built out with the parking lots more or less complete, although when the taproom was open I usually had to park in roadside areas during peak areas. The outdoor reservations are one per 1 1/2 hours for only 4-6 tables I believe, so without much turnover parking should not be too difficult.

You can also check the box for curbside pickup if you don't want to walk over to the window. But in all honesty I go there every week and have only waited in line a couple of times. YMMV based on the popularity of beer pickups for this holiday of course.

 

I'll be heading down on Sunday, very excited to try the DDH Heart of a Champ. Hope it lasts. I'm optimistic since Black Cat Sees All is still around.

I'll say it til I'm blue in the face. Long Live still doesn't get enough love

 

I went Monday for pickup and it couldn’t have been easier. Ordered online, drove through the ungentrified neighborhood to get there, and pulled right up to their garage. Called the brewery and they delivered cans to my car within 3 minutes. Seriously couldn’t have been easier.

And 4 different DIPAs in cans?! Yes please!

 

Shut your dirty mouth! Seriously though, they just dropped 2 more cans for pickup starting today: an IPA and a dark lager. I needed a DDH Champion last night but may have made my pickup too early this week!
