I'll get bored with it, I don't drink that much and with Off Color, Virtue Cider and Half Pony Pils readily available to me at any given time, I am pretty much set...

Drove to Hartford to satisfy my Ghandi Bot urges

I need to buy a stout for a stout thing tomorrow...probably something uncommon.

Any suggestions that I can pickup locally?

First you'll have to define your location, before anyone can suggest what's locally available.

Well, I guess I was quoting Tooch since he and I frequent some of the same liquor stores...and I assume that any of the other regulars in this thread who would know what beers are currently available here would also know that I live here...and I made a post 3 posts prior about being excited that surly was coming here...

but I live in Chicago.

You guys want to do a beer swap for this coming Christmas?

 

[concealed]

yea say a $30 box?

 

[kwilkinson]

**** yeah. Let's do an SFgroup trade/bif

 

[indesertum]

Is $30 enough? Not including shipping cuz then you would just get maybe a six pack of something

Prolly don't reach for whales cuz I don't think all of us have access to them. Just local stuff. Of course unless you want to make some people happy. Maybe we could try and set it up so east coasters get west coasters and the like

 

[kwilkinson]

You can def use seekabrew to see what others can get. I agree probably no whalez unless they're extras, simply because I haz nun.

Company owner just texted me and said we're going to be a test market for Lagunitas Daytime IPA. It's their session IPA. I had it in September on that trip and it is the bomb.

 

[cocostella]

What are you guys thinking for shipping? Large flat-rate priority, or? I'd be down. I assume San Diego would be a welcomed local... Wish my homie would can or bottle his gold medal winning strong pale ale. There's plenty others around though.

 

[JohnGalt]

No shipping via usps. Ups or fedex only

 

[cocostella]

We did not know this, dude.

Bartender gave me a free hat with my beer
