New to Ohio (2016)

I don't know if it will be insane, but last year people actually lined up for some reason. If you get there after the initial rush, you should be fine. Personally, I'm waiting until tomorrow.

 

If its anything like last year, definitely not insane. There was a line when it initially opened that probably took 30 minutes to get through. After that though, you could just walk right up and pick up what you wanted.

 

I stumbled into something over the weekend in Dayton. The Shell station @ Stroop and 48 now has a growler filling station. Actually really nice / legit. They were selling growlers of Warped Wing Baltic Argonaut for $22 and I saw they had Whiskey Rebellion earlier at $32 which are cheaper than getting the cans at the Brewery. I especially liked it since WW won't fill growlers of those two either.

 

Waiting for tomorrow as well. Saw a pic of what they got. Anyone who stands in line is doing it for some other reason than to get the beer.

 

Wooooooo I got a growler fill of Whiskey Rebellion for $20 bucks to share at a Christmas party and that was pretty steep.

 

Wow - where'd you find that price? My dad told me they were running $11/16 oz can. $20 for a 64oz growler?

 

Damn. I bet WW doesn't know they are doing growler fills.

 

Yeah, it was 22+tax for a 2 pack of 16oz cans.

 

I may actually go tonight around 7... after all the bros have left.

 

New to OH: Uinta Biere De Mars, "Illuminati" cuvee/wild stout from Leelanau (collab I think).

 

I would wait, but I am picking up my puppy tomorrow

 

Actually, I know that they know retailers are doing growler fills and they don't care. My local growler shop has all their BA stuff for fills (and they don't sell on-premise drinks, so....). Luckily, all breweries aren't weird like 3 Floyds.

 

Juju the puppy... I like it!!

 

I guess that's unexpected to me. I'd figure they wouldn't like places selling their rarer beer for so cheap.

That said, are any of your Dayton-ish area people going to the Peanut Butter Holy Cacao release at Eudora Saturday? I'll be there, come say hi

 

Does anyone have an info on when Market Garden's new facility will open to the public? I have been trying to find a date, but I haven't seen anything around..

 

I am also waiting until either tonight or tomorrow to get my JuJu... No real rush, they have plenty!

 

Not sure on exact date, but Market Garden has been open at least twice this week for soft openings, so I imagine it would be pretty soon.

 

It is the Country Fresh Market on Beechmont, they had it around the holidays, and yes $20 for 64 oz. That was the only reason I bought it, I'm not paying $11 for a can.

 

Unless they start packaging Danny Greene or BA Danny Greene, in the words of Morgan Freeman in Shawshank, "I don't give a shit." Actually their hefe is pretty damn good now that I think of it. Maybe they will be packaging that.

 

Packaging should start around beginning/middle of April. Gonna start sending out drafts before hand...
