oh for ****'s sake this...

Continuing the tradition of Boston's "That'll do" laziness

I should just move to Baby Portland (Portsmouth, NH)

Baby Portland is on the up and up

For real doe. And way cheaper than Boston

Prairie Bomb on at Lord Hobo. True story.

Haven't back to Trillium in a while so I was surprised they have limits like 64oz for growlers per beer per person per day. Didn't get any Headroom, but saw kcbaby working hard hardly working though (lol)

 

[Fluke828]

sounds like they just can't keep up right now....retail shop is closed today...

AKA buy all our old **** that we can't sell! Rock bottom pricing on 5050 bottles? Does the dust on those bottles cost extra or do I get a price cut for having to wash the bottle first?

 

[Auror]

Yeah sounds like the owners just got pissed at all those old cases taking up storage space and costing them $$ with no return. All must go "cause I'm sick of looking at these $$ signs".

Founders that haven’t seen daylight in six years

I'd be willing to bet every Kappy's has a couple sixers of Centennial that could fit this description.

I wonder what the 3F is? I'm guessing 2012 Intense Red is the extent of it.

They have a lot of old regular 3F kriek also. No hot kriek though... I've sent them through the cellar looking for it already.

 

[tehzachatak]

Well, just looked at the list and it's not on it - so maybe they don't anymore?

 

[GuzzleMcBrew]

Ah, when I checked out the "event" yesterday I didn't even see a list posted.
3f goozie and 2011 tilquin are cool. Overall this looks very similar to cellar cleaning trade threads-uninspired.

 

[jwazzy]

Most of those bottles have been sitting on the shelf as well all this time. They may have extra in the "cellar" but they certainly weren't unavailable Lackluster and not worth the time at all. I'm sure there will be a line at open.

A line at Gordon's? Like to get in the store?

I was in the area and just stopped in a minute ago. There was a line about 60 deep for the start of the sale I was told. Pretty much for the 3F and Tilquin.

Anyways it's pretty much garbage time now. I did get 4 tomes for 4.99 a piece. I found only one marked at that price and was told I could get that price on them all. Huge score as far as I'm concerned.

what tomes?

Hiver.

 

[tehzachatak]

Hiver.

I pray for your sake they are not smoked butthole bottles. If not, that's a killer price.

I'll let you know. I have one on deck.

 

[jwazzy]

Ok. There is a faint smokiness. Its there but some really backseat ****. I'm getting a ton of funk, nice tart lemony notes, pepper and I'm getting some mushroom flavors as well. Not the bomb tome **** I crave. For five bucks this is an okay experience. With the bottle variations in the older **** I wouldn't be shocked to find a baller saison in this bunch.

My favorite right now. Still really want a tome tulip but have had zero luck as of yet.

 

[Impax]

Anyone see any De Dolle Stille Nachts kicking around in the South Shore? Need to stock for the winter.

MA peeps:

Can stop at only one store on my way to the Kraftwerk show tomorrow....

Craft Beer Cellars Newton vs. Julio's

Haven't been to the former, but I've spent a great deal of time at the latter...just not in a short while.

WHICH?

 

[tehzachatak]

Julios. Newton is a very disappointing CBC. They try hard, but no.

I only chose those two because they seemed really obvious.

Unless there's another spot that I'm missing (Treehouse, Trillium, Night Shift breweries are not in the cards)...
