    Oh how I would love to trade with a local who happens to have a fresh poured Abner in a growler for a new Stoneface DIPA and their line up. Abner has eluded me far too long.

    Blackback is getting HF kegs again. They tend to post a pic of their draft list on FB, at least on weekends. If you're still in town just give them a call and they'll let you know if/what HF is pouring.

    Left seacoast at six, was in line at Win beverage 9:15. We were 10th line. Line was around the building within minutes. First 5 people in line got a case. Everyone else got half then could get back in line. We got our second half and headed out. Heady was gone in about 10 minutes. Shot down to waitsfield and grabbed two more 4 packs at Mehurens. Some places in town hadn't even gotten deliveries yet, plenty. Blackback had no hill farm and told me they hadn't been able to get it lately when I called. We shot down to three penny which was quiet and chill. Mastermind draft was amazing, almost like orange juice to me. Fiddle IPA, sip of sunshine all great. Plenty of heady at the bar. Glad I didn't have to drive, solid day. Still a pain in the ass timing wise if you're from out of town.

    @Jbrews were you and your buddy the ones I directed to Mehurens at Waitsfield Wine Shop? and then you guys were at three penny? If so, my wife and I were the ones at the end of the bar next to you. Cheers!

    That was us, thank you tons, and very nice to meet you! The little extra we got at Mehurens was for a good friend of mine I owe so that was very helpful. How damn tasty is Mastermind?!?! (assuming you tried it)
