The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

Good luck in the tourney. I'll go with 188 lbs.

 

183.7 Thanks for chance.

 

@MCMASTERSANCHEZ - 171.2 - thanks!

 

So I will admit one of the reasons I expressed interest when @MCMASTERSANCHEZ got the Horizontalhood is because I figured there was a very good chance I'd get beer from Three Floyds. And since I've never had a potential BIF sender or made a trade in the past with anyone from Indiana, I didn't know a whole lot about what else was out there.

And then I opened the Horizontalhood and found an amazing box filled with stuff that I've never had before, from a brewery whose name I recognized because I've seen it listed on a ton of people's wants, but that I know almost nothing about. I love new stuff, and this certainly appears to be the #2 brewery in the state, so I'm looking foward to these. And besides that, there is only one that I need to drink quickly (while it's #lehighfresh) and I can save the others until I have company.

So moving right along...



Goodies from the 18th Street Brewery:

Temporal Purgatory -- this is the only one I'm concerned about drinking fresh, and unless I end up with unexpected plans and go out tonight, this will be opened and consumed this evening.

Hunter Coconut and Hunter Cherry -- My "research" reveals great things about Hunter Milk Stout; these are both part of their "vertical series" with a bunch of different flavors -- both sound interesting, but will probably be beers I share (or at least open when I have potential sharing candidates around); I try to do that with unique flavors just in case they overwhelm me.

Devil's Conclave -- this one sounds amazing -- a very highly rated Milk Stout -- and while I've never had anything from 18th Street before, this is actually my second bottle -- I got one from@Syracuse12 a few months ago when he was up in my direction and we exchanged a couple of beers each, I didn't know where it was from. There's a good chance this one will be gone within a week or two and then I can save the other.

Devils Spear -- this one's a Barleywine that sounds delicious and has great reviews, another one I will probably be sharing.

And last but not least, #properglassware (yay) to drink all of these out of

Thanks Shaun for a great selection and variety of new-to-me beers -- this is what the Horizontalhood is all about!

And I will probably be posting my offering early next week -- I feel like over the weekend it may get lost in the flood of #vbs's.

 

I'm not sure if the deadline was the midnight that is coming up or the one that just passed, but I will guess 158.9 pounds. And if I win will defer to somebody else, since you just sent me beer.

 

69.5 lbs ... Best of luck at the tournament

 

@Ncpogs sent me a bottle of Devil's Conclave and it was excellent.

 

Awesome enjoy all great beers

 

I'll go with 164.4 lbs. Good luck and kick some ass!

 

181.9. Good luck!

 

Did you forget the 1, or were you just taking a shot at him??

 

Not an accident in his avatar he looks short...

 

So @PG2G expressed interest in BoT, which I had an extra of. We agreed on a six bottle shipper size box and I told him just to send whatever. I ended up with this amazing box full of wants. Can't thank you enough Martin!

 

One more local proving he can't count....

 

two boxes on Fedex trucks today, headed to locals.....

 

Haha, when you've got a want sitting in front of u in the cellar or shelf, its hard not to send!

 

Well, I hit you up for White Oak, now I'm hitting you up for Last Snow. Seems like you and the color whyte go together. Now, how do I go about not getting a 50 lb monster that will get me thrown out of my house?

 

It's already too late...

 

^^^^^ What he said!

 

I went and checked the locals directory when I saw the Shipment notification and realized it was you. Of course I already owe some retaliatory shots from the #DatGlass LIF, so best prepare yourself and hide yo wives and children, yank!
