doing a group hiking trip on the Long Trail in a couple weeks with some beer enthusiasts but not maniacs. We'd be looking for some stores/restaurants for Saturday & Sunday. And would love to find a place to fill growlers, though not overly optimistic. Camping in Middlebury, coming off the Long Trail in Waitsfield & will head straight to Mad Taco. Drive up Sat from Mass. Camp just outside Middlebury that night. Hike Sunday. Drive up on Sat is a leisurely one, unless the group decides to hit up Hill Farmstead
