From Madrid here, I can't drive, so if I go to the east coast and want to go to different places (cities), do I need someone to drive me places or is the public transport good enough to get me from New York to Tree House in MA, for example.
With the weather getting a little warmer out I was disappointed I couldn't find any gose in stores this summer :(
Oh well

Alaskamay I ask the region? I've been seeing pretty much the same gose assortment as last summer in New England
Alaska
I've only seen Sierra Nevada Otra Vez on shelves, but that was last summer, haven't seen it at all this year. Never seen Reubens or Anderson Valley.
I'm sending the email anyways
My local got in a shipment of the BBA and coffee variant of Modern Times' Monsters Park. 15 bucks a can!! I've never had it, but it can't possibly be that good.
Edit - NM, just found it. Yeah, didn't look like they included any other TH except for Green and the rotating. Same with Trillium. Had A Street and Scaled, but no Congress St.
These cans of Ripe I have just suddenly got tastier, and tradier.
Wish New England Brewing would have been included (or chosen to participate). I would be really interested to see how G-bot and Fuzzy Ducks would have ended up.
Heh, I was thinking that as I saw GN post about it on their Instagram feed. I like GN and I'll happily drink their beers at the brewery when I'm in Portland, but I'm not going out of my way for cans or anything..
Haha yeah; we go to Portland monthly as we have friends there and other things to do. If GN is doing a release, we go, if not, our friends snag us a 4 pack of whatever.
I am not really into hazy IPAs but I do enjoy theirs.

Hello everyone
In Montreal for a few days and we're toying with the idea of driving down to Vermont to get some beer from Alchemist and Hill Farmstead. If I want Heady Topper do I really have to align with the delivery schedule? Am I guaranteed to get some if I go right to the brewery??
Went to Burlington and got cans of Heady Topper, Focal Banger and Sip of Sunshine! Now to find a way to get it all home to the Pacific Coast without temperature change affecting them....I had no trouble at all finding Heady Topper (as well as Sip of Sunsine, etc) even without going to HF last time I was in VT. My better half's family is from Plattsburgh, NY so we took the ferry over to Burlington, VT and found plenty there. IIRC, you'd be looking at under an hour or so to get there.
Doing this from memory but I think Finnigan's was the name of the place that had an extensive local list but there were a bunch of places all along that same street.
Hermit Thrush was actually the highlight of our trip but you'd easily be tacking in another couple hours to Brattleboro.
Anyone homebrew? I don't think there's a HB thread on here is there?
What you got cooking or racked?
just did a Tombstome Pale Ale that turned out pretty good, and bottling a Imperial Red Cascade IPA on Tue.
Thinking of brewing a Coconut Porter Tue.
Floodland pick up day! Grabbed my allocation, plus I gave the brewer some old stouts he was longing for, so he gave me the two Vast Unknowables, a bottle of a wild foraged cider and rose that he made (both not shown).
Nice, I love me some green bottles. Still no plans to distribute outside of Seattle? I noticed the website was simplified so I'm not hopeful.
Not sure how wide of distribution Beechwood (Huntington Beach) gets, but their Hoppler Effect anniversary beer with worth checking out. Basically a triple IPA at 10%, but really well balanced.
This was very good. One of the dankest beers I've had in a while and you're 100% right about the balance, pretty easy on the booze, I enjoyed it thoroughly with some co-workers.
Brew go well?I'm a member of the local homebrew club, and we brew every few months as a group, including this upcoming weekend. We're doing an Irish stout.
