Mastermind

Also, they are doing another Mastermind canning on this Thursday 10/9. So I'm assuming this latest deliveries to all of the local stores is from the last canning run to clear space at the brewery or warehouse (maybe?). I've seen at least 4 different Burlington region places post Mastermind was delivered within the last couple of hours.

 

I bought the last 2 at the brewery on Sunday around 4pm.

On a related note, Bennington area should be seeing some today/tomorrow and tons within and between Montpeilier and Burlington today/tomorrow.

 

You going to be there for it Thurs? Let me know if you can bring any extra back to CT

 

If anyone has any to trade let me know. I have Alpine, Wicked Weed and Trillium stuff.

 

I do plan to bring some back

 

Wow! Had my first Mastermind last night and that bitch is JUICY! Damn fine brew. Now I need more, and that's where the problem lies! Haha

 

How fast does this stuff sell out? I'm going to be in the area on Friday, will I be able to swing by the brewery and pick some up or should I be on the lookout at stores?

 

The last few Channing's there has usually been enough left to get into the weekend. You should be safe on Friday.

 

Anybody know what is coming out in cans today? Website wasn't clear.

 

Mastermind

 

Thanks @bahnfire. That is great news. Can't wait to visit tomorrow.

 

I don't know about better than Heady.

Mastermind reminds me of a Lawson's DIPA more than anything. Tasty!

Has anyone had Hyzer Flip?

 

I would have to say that yes Mastermind is better than Heady. I've had Hyzer Flip which is a unique DIPA very drinkable but not quite up there with Mastermind. Be on the lookout for The Chrusher from The Alechemist got some at the truck sale last weekend and well WOW!

 

Mastermind is a sexy, sexy beer. Had it on draft and many cans; it may well be my new favorite. And yes, that means above Heady. I actually like it more. (Do I think it's really better? Well, it's a very different beer. So, no.)

 

Crusher is da bomb. I remember that on-tap from the brewpub days. Ditto for Beezlebub as both started life there. I'm not 100% sure but I think Heretic was also on tap at that time.

I hope to make the next can sale. I've been to 2 so far.

 

Does Mastermind make it out to the Waterbury area?

 

Doubtful.

I've only seen Hodad outside of the brewery for sale. Not sure about the others.

 

Yes. Mastermind, Second Fiddle, and Hodad have all been sent out for distribution. It's made it as far as Rutland (based on BA reports), maybe farther than that, but still just within VT. Mastermind should be on shelves this weekend or Tuesday (most Burlington places told me they usually get Fiddlehead on Tuesdays after the canning day/event).

 

MM smells a bit like Julius. Which is a very, very good thing IMO

 

You should at least get a time out for this
