    Hi all,

    I'm planning to head over to the Warren Store on Thursday (7/11) for the Lawson's delivery. Does anyone have any advice for me? What's the inventory like? How quickly is it sold out? I'm planning on arriving around 2:45 pm. Is that too late in the day?

    Thanks in advance. I wouldn't care if they were sold out if I was driving myself, but I'm bumming a ride from someone and I don't want him to get let down if there's no beer!

    Usually arrives around 11am. They send whatever they want to/whatever's ready. Limit 4 total per person, and they recieve 1 or 2 different beers each week. I'd imagine 2:45 will be ok, but it probably wouldn't hurt to try to get there earlier.

    Thanks Dino. I'll do my best. My beer fortune rests on my ride!

    Interesting factoids though, I'm glad there's only a four bottle limit, since I'm a little broke. I just can't miss the opportunity!

    I was there on Tuesday when they delivered Toast, which is all they brought in. Ten cases. I took two bottles and the other guy waiting took the rest of the case. I'd bet the shipment didn't make it through the day. The delivery person said then that the next delivery would be the following Tuesday, which is 7/9, but couldn't tell me what would be on that next shipment. Wasn't aware they made more than one shipment a week, but it is possible.

    We need Vermont stickes at the top of the page. These questions get asked every single week since people are too lazy to do a quick search usually.

    I spoke with the guy at Warren Store. He said they usually get 18 to 24 cases, but this week he's getting only 3 cases and it's gonna be Chinookered.

    I suppose things can change, but that's what he told me.

    Went in October '12 on a Thursday at about the same time - nothing but Maple something left.
    Went in May '13 on a Thursday at around 12:30 p.m. and there was plenty to choose from.
    Seems to be hit or miss. Go earlier if you are able.

    Yeah but the Double IPA's go like lightning - depends what limit they'll put on it. Probably two at the most.

    2:45. I don't know

    Looks like it's hit or miss. Or whomever is working at the cash registers.

    I wish I could get there earlier. I'll be sure to let you guys know on Thursday what the haul was.

    I was there about 2 weeks ago on a Thursday. At 3:45 PM there was plenty of Double Sunshine left
