IBC

So I see that Hill Farmstead only sells in Vermont. Any IBCers in Vermont?

I am up in that area of Vermont a few times a year, Shaun Hill is doing some amazing things there. The beer is top notch.

Last time I was there it was mainly filling of growlers, but they do some bottling.

If you are interested I can let you know the next time I am up there if you wanted something.

That'd be awesome.

I had a Shiner White Wing over the weekend. It is like a better Blue Moon.

Good description of the Shiner. A decent wheat beer from a quality brewery (and if you can get your hands on a Wild Hare, you'll have a quality Pale Ale...or their annual Shiner Cheer makes for a delicious winter brew).

Norm's Raggedy Ass IPA from Griffin Claw with dinner last night

I've had a ton of them, but haven't had it in a while. Forgot how good it is. More of a session IPA. And if anything, Griffin Claw is awesome to drink because of how cool their logo is.

And they're located just a few towns over from me.

Whoa, could somebody delete the image out of my last post? I didn't realize it was that big (that's what she said).

You had this for breakfast right?

Pat Tullar and I are Vermonters. My wife went to high school with one of the owners.

Do they bottle it?

I had Heady Topper on Saturday and it was pretty good.

I am happy to report that one of one favorite local pubs, Feile's, is tapping a keg of Founders Backwoods Bastard on Saturday as I celebrate my 60th birthday! A delightful Scotch Ale ...

I've had that. Delightful is the perfect word for it...and I'm not necessarily a big fan of Scotch Ales.

Bell's Hopslam has been getting distributed around Michigan this week. I'm going to see if I can find any this weekend.

We just got Two Hearted, hopefully Hopslam in a couple of weeks.

Founder's KBS is also out this week I hear. Almost impossible to find, though.

We get some in Atlanta - usually a line of people when the store opens.

I'm going to Asheville tonight through Monday - so don't expect any responses to PM's, draft, etc.

"KBS will be available throughout Michigan beginning on Monday, March 16, and throughout the rest of our footprint beginning on Monday, March 30."

Ah, well something happened with it this week. Maybe they started the kegging process.

So the grocery store next to my office got a pallet of Hopslam a couple days ago. Only super old people shop at this store, so I figured it wouldn't go that fast. Just ran over during my lunch break and they're already sold out.

Apparently people are buying up as much as possible and trying to re-sell it at a higher cost. People like this deserve to have their intestines ripped out through their ass and then be strangled to death with their own entrails.

All places around me limit the amount of beer (like BBCS and Hopslam) you can buy.

Yea, most places I heard are limiting people to 1 6 pack per person, but word got out that this grocery store didn't have a limit.

So who's sending me heady topper? I can send Midwest stuff back like three floyds.

I just had a couple of cans over the last 3 weeks. My friend went to VT and brought a bunch back. I traded her a really shitty mixed drink for them that I made. I'll be going to VT to go skiing plenty over the next few months, if i come upon any i'll let you know.

Hopslam is now available in NYC, if anyone wants to make a trade of sorts, let me know!
