The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

When they ninja'd you? Or when you put together your revenge?

 

Oh c'mon... you know one bottle that's in there for sure.

 

So I'm headed to Tired Hands this evening, and while I can't take on any more trades, I'm happy to do a #pickitupforme for one or two of you gents, let's say I can do two boxes with up to 4 total growlers for pp/label (usually ~$18/growler including the glass).

As to what's on tap, let's leave it at a couple hoppy beers and a couple saisons, so feel free to request between the two, but they haven't posted the tap list in a couple days.

 

Not a rumor, enjoying Expo!

 

Another box, courtesy of @UTvols05. His end of the trade should be landing tomorrow.


Burnt Hickory Big Shanty - Really been wanting to try out some Burnt Hickory for a while now as I've heard a lot of good things but never made it to the brewery. Graham Cracker Stout sounds awesome.
Burnt Hickory Cannon Dragger - One more from Burnt Hickory, IPA. I do love me some IPA.
Orpheus Lyric Ale x2 - Interested to see there take on saisons. I really enjoy saisons because its such a wide style, really gives breweries the chance to play around and try different things.
Orpheus Atalanta - Another saison from Orpheus, this one plum (and tart?). Not a huge fan of plums by themselves, but I find that I have liked the few beers I've had with plum in them, so really looking forward to it.
Ballast Point Grapefruit Sculpin x2 - This is one of those beers that I really should have had by now as I'm fairly certain it comes to NC (just hasn't been at my local that I've seen) and it comes to MN (but haven't been able to find it). Really glad @UTvols05 tossed a couple in.
Burnt Hickory Ezekiel Wheel - And the last Burnt Hickory, Pale Ale. Can't wait to try all three of these.

Thanks @UTvols05 and hope you like your box as well!

 

Bottles too? or just draft?

 

The revenge box, though I did lie there isn't 18. My bad, I'm not a numbers guy!

Great LIF

 

ISO: Sun and weather where I can sit outdoors and enjoy a beer.

 

I guess this isn't really Locals for me, so I will venture a guess...and if I don't do it now I will spend way too much time thinking about it, so..

1 - France - Paris and Nice
2 - Italy - Rome and Venice
3 - Atlantic City, New Jersey

Thanks for the opportunity!

 

Limit 2 bottles and on draft.

 

My next hint will be tomorrow, just keeping the guesses on track, or other wise this will take forever. Don't worry the answer to number 3 will take some time.

I know its not "local" but since there isn't really a sour group or belgium group, Id figured Id just share the love here.

And you have answered 1 and 2 correctly for countries, you have 1 city wrong for France.

 

1 - France - Paris and Bordeaux
2 - Italy - Rome and Florence
3 - Finger Lakes, NY

 

Box from @heystevec for no other reason than he forgot to include me on his LIF, what a great guy! I also am a Crab Chip virgin no more!

 

"

1. Greece (Athens, Thessaloniki)

2. Germany (Berlin, Munich)

3. Charleston, SC

thanks for the chance

 

Its honestly something I did on a whim and it went over really well in a different BIF. Now its like a trademark.

I have zero clue how they travel, tbh. Lets ask @Littlelotte88 , @EA728 , and @Kylo76 ... How did the chips hold up?

 

Mine were not smashed any more than what the usual wear and tear is from the grocery store. I am actually debating ordering 10 family sized bags from Utz myself so I can try more of their flavors. I'm trying to lose weight, but you may have just found my "cheat" food to pair with my beer (my constant "cheat")

 

My Central Market has them....

 

Send me a label and I will send you the chips. They are 2 for $5 at the store for the big bags! I could probably put some beer in there, too

 

I just love the creativity. I once got a box with some sort of pilsner glass that had a picture of a woman smoking a joint and like 15 beer stickers and coasters,I thought it was the coolest thing ever. I've recently been adding my own "touch"
