    I'm planning on trip to VT this summer for few days and wanted to find out about bottle purchasing.
    I might get some hate on this question but just trying to make the trip most out of it.
    When Hill farmstead put up bottle for sale with limits. Assuming that is the limit per person per day.
    Would making another attempt to get in line to make another set of purchase is possible?

    Maybe, but it is still a dick move.

    As you thought the bottle limits are per person, per day (growlers are per trip though the line). If you've in the area for 3 days you can go up and get the limit 3 times. But it sounds as though you are asking about getting back in line to buy more bottles in the same day, which is against the rules. Granted, you certainly can try to get away with it but it is unquestionably a dick move. Also, there are some things working against you:
    1) If the line isn't very long it wouldn't be difficult to recognize you've already been through the line once and got bottles
    2) If the line is long enough that you think they wouldn't recognize you, then you'll likely be in line for hours, which is time better spent visiting Parker Pie, Blackback, Pro Pig and others.

    And to be perfectly honest I've guessing regardless of how long the line is there's a pretty good chance you'd get caught. If you haven't ever been there before, once you get to the front of the line you're there talking to them for 10 minutes at least, and there is only two people. Its not a quick in an out where no one really sees you.

    Definitely post this in the "Currently on the shelves at Hill Farmstead" thread in the NE forum. A more apt title would be "Grown men crying about beer". Then, after you have done so, let me know so I can check back every few hours for laughs.
