Boston area thread

I hate so many things about this city.

But some things are nice.

I never understood people who want to fist fight in general but people who want to do it over beer opinions are completely baffling.

Gonna be soooooooooooooooooooooo expensive on-premise though. I'm guessing like, $40 plus at TPH/Row 34/etc

What does it cost on shelves up in VT?

What does it cost on shelves up in VT?

Dunno, never seen it for to-go sales. I have always assumed like $20. But it's like $22 or $24 or something at Three Penny for inhouse.

 

[KevinC1]

It was $20 when I got some at Hunger Mountain.

I've bought it off the shelf for $17.50 in VT

Flawless gif.

Love this video and love to hate his co-anchor with the massive stick up her ass.

Now they're at Downtown and I didn't mix em up this time. No specifications but the email says they have Cantillon behind the register and there is more than one kind.

mm... I actually wasn't going to be around this weekend but plans changed and now I am. When you doing Trillium/Row 34?

(I bet Row 34 will have on-premise Loons this weekend).

Actually, now that I think about it, maybe I'll just go to TH Saturday AM if there's still plenty of double shot left...

yeah, but we do the VT cannonball run so much that it's not too bad... although the ride home should suck

(I bet Row 34 will have on-premise Loons this weekend).

plan is to be at Treehouse before opening... and get some cans (hopefully) and growlers... then shoot right over to Trillium... pickup whatever they have and then be at Row 34 for a late lunch... I'm guessing no earlier 1:30

 

[BeersMorgan]

Saturday is going to be a long ass day. Stout fest breakfast, sticking around for lunch and more stouts and bottles, maybe hit up Dive Bar to see what's up, Sharks v P Bruins game at 7, hopefully finish up with a cigar at Michaels. Not many people are this excited to spend a whole day in Worcester.

Just assuming I'll have a bruins jersey on so if you guys make it to the fest come on over.

 

[tehzachatak]

Sold out at DTWS

LPG, ball square fine wines, posted online like 3 min ago. go go go

What good is a girlfriend who works downtown if all the stores that get Cantillon are in Somerville/Cambridge?

Oh, I'm sure the stores downtown get Cantillon too... I, for one, just don't know any of those people.

 

[JCastle1]

A lot of stores don't announce it. Just need to get lucky and walk in.

 

[bearsonacid1]

What places in the city get cantillon? I know Bauer and Charles St liquor does or used to. I heard bees knees got blacklisted after the whole episode with the $50 gueuze they were selling. But their beer section is like all Shelton Bros so they'll probably still get it.

I might check Social Wines. They got deal with the devil the other day.

 

[JCastle1]

Bauer gets a ton of Shelton, though I don't think they've gotten Cantillon in a while.

I'm stopping in Charles St tomorrow so I'll check it out.

(Whiskey side note i sampled all the barrel samplers of the private selection Eagle Rare they were given and the one they picked for their bottles is amazing. Should be out very soon)

 

[Ataraxia1]

Ugh, missed it at Ball square by 15 minutes. They have adwtd at 41$ though.

The roads in Somerville are ****

 

[bearsonacid1]

Just picked up ADwtD for $39.70 at social wines. No cantillon tho

 

[BeersMorgan]

Charles St. isn't getting any but they do have a bunch of the new batch of Bourye at $90 if you want more expensive whiskey

 

[HevvyMetalHippie]

The *********gery that exists in Boston never ceases to amaze me.

AY YA FAHKIN QUEEAH YOU DONT LIKE A DUNKIES ON EVERY COHNNAH?!

Srs doe, the weak beer culture, the entitled ********, the neckbeard social media fapfest, and the wildly rediculous cost of living makes Boston an easy target to go after its "little man complex." Yet I still live here like an idiot.

But hey, WE BROKE THE SNOW RECORD WOOOOO! USA! USA! USA! YANKEES SUCK! YANKEES SUCK!

Wait what?

Did anyone go to the Brewbound talk at Harpoon the other month? They had a panel to talk about why the Boston beer community isn't like San Diego or Colorado or (insert better beer city).
