Grabbed some Tired Hands yesterday. The new stout and the Lush Life TIPA were both great. Lush Life is dangerously smooth for 10.5%

 

Absolutely no worries at all, promise

 

@irthesteve I'm excited to try that one.

This was my first great beer of the year. Was a little skeptical after some misses recently by Bottle Logic but this one was top stuff.

 

Lol all good man. Just shoot me tracking. Our mail room is a mess because people don’t pick up packages and sometimes people deliver to the other mail room on our complex.

 

I feel ya. There's close to a dozen breweries 20 minutes max away from me in Manchester.

 

I’m on the seacoast and we’re lucky to have a lot of good stuff nearby. Stoneface, Deciduous, and Garrison City in particular. It’s been great seeing more breweries distribute to NH, I used to have to go to Mass or Maine for Night Shift, Burlington Beer Co., Oxbow, etc.

 

I’ve heard good things about Spyglass in Nashua too but I haven’t tried them yet

 

Have heard a bit about them, but haven't had anything yet. They're across the street from White Birch, who makes some decent stuff

 

Looks like Tired Hands is shipping to VA!

 

Great Notion are honestly wizards, this is so good

 

Spyglass is real good for NEIPA and kettle sours. Really tiny place so it can sometimes be hard to get certain things because they sell out fast. That’s mainly all they do but will occasionally put out a few different styles, but I haven’t really tried any of them yet to see how they are. Hoping they can eventually start experimenting more with farmhouse styles once they grow some more.

 

So Tavour currently has a Jester King x Side Project dark wild ale for sale for...$51.

 

I’d probably be more likely to shell out $51 for that than $79 or whatever it is for some of those Anchorage barrel-aged beers. Even so, that’s way too rich for my blood.

 

That's a mark up on those Anchorage. I think they are $50 when the stores around me get them. And also, not worth it. They are good but definitely not $50 for a 12 oz good.

 

lmaoooo $50 for a 12 ounce? I thought it was at least a 750 ml anchorage beer or something. oof.

 

Any lucky PA or VA people get an email from Hill Farmstead?

 

Sadly no

 

Nah

 

Russian River is doing an online bottle sale for Pliny the Younger this year

Pliny The Younger Release | Russian River Brewing Company

 

This is the best beer I’ve had in a long time and easily the lightest 8.5% I’ve ever had.

 

@momo32t Nope

 

Hey...so...remember that time you proxied Rare Barrel stuff for me?

 

Haha yes I do, DM me if you wanna figure this out, I can ship to you no prob

 

I've never been so simultaneously excited and devastated by a news post. Can't wait to see what they do with a space like this, but they're now going to be an additional hour drive away from me.
