    I guess my phrasing was confusing, that was directly quoted from Sean Lawson on their blog. Not sure he would ever reveal a full recipe but the blog is pretty good including usually updating on the weekly releases. If you ever get to meet him though who knows, he's a really nice guy!

    I hope there are some for the 5/29 Warren Store release, but if not will be looking to setup a trade while in VT. Anyone looking for anything from NC/VA?

    If it does become one, does that mean regular IPAs will be session IPAs now?

    I need to get some of this... DS is the best DIPA I've ever consumed.

    Gonna take a shot at making it to the release. Just have to convince my wife that it's a good idea to leave CT very early in the AM. Will be up there for the HF anniversary, so why not add to the madness... All we need is for Alchemist to do a tent sale that day, and things could get really nutty!

    Note the line starts at Mad Taco this time-
    "We are tentatively planning to hand out numbered tickets for all bottle sales for the 5/24 market starting at 8am at the Mad Taco in Waitsfield - where they will be throwing the doors open early for breakfast and a special cask tapping of Triple Sunshine IPA...woah! Starting at 9am, tickets will be handed out at the market, not the Mad Taco."

    Was making a joke with Sean at Montbeerlier that we know the brewers conspire at VBA meetings to throw all their releases on simultaneous weekends. (Only it's not really a joke anymore!)

    Lost Nation will be releasing a mere 24 bottles of a very special Gose (barreled of course, on every fruit imaginable), and Fiddlehead will be giving away growlers of their new quintuple IPA to the first 10 customers in line. All takes place at 10am on the 24th.

    Magic Hat will be closed for business that day.

    My jimmies are rustled as there is no other IPA I love more than Double Sunshine. ISO Tripple Sunshine bad.

    Holiday weekend, HF Anniversary in Waterbury and now this. Going to be a disaster in that area that weekend.

    So now I have to decide whether to go to Hill Farmstead for growlers and bottles or the farmer's market when I go up for the HF 4th anniversary? This will be tough.

    I'm staying at a B&B by Parker pie Friday night, it's too tough driving from there to Lawsons then back to HF then to Waterbury. Does anyone want to do a HF for triple sunshine in person swap? I can grab whatever you want from HF that Saturday and we can meet up by Warren or Waterbury.

    @youbrewidrink

    Joe, could you let us know more about how tickets are being handed out? For example, are a set number of tickets being handed out at Mad Taco and the rest at the Market? I'm worried about not going to Mad Taco only to hear ~200 people showed up there and the first ~200 tickets have already been handed out. I know this weekend is above and beyond what previous weekends have been, just curious what you think. Cheers!

    No tickets will be held back, if enough people show up to Mad Taco the total ticket supply will be depleted then & there. If any tickets are left, 9am at the market.
