Anyone have any updated info on the I-70 rock slide? We still looking at long delays on Saturday?

It really hasn't looked like much of a delay lately. At least from what I've seen people posting

It'll be slower moving through that stretch, but last I've heard there's one lane open moving in each direction. For a few days they had I-70 completely closed from 9 am to 4 pm. So it's improved significantly since then.

Damnit! Heading to Vail.......NEXT weekend (March 10). So many sad feelz...

Are the chances of finding their beers in liquor stores increased after a release weekend like this?

It's quite possible. I'd imagine there will be at least some Oak Theory and tons of East Bank going to stores up there early next week.

Thanks, top 4 are a bit far but will definitely stop through Frisco and hit up the one in Vail. I'm guessing I'm being delusional to hope that any of The Cut's/Family Preserves get distributed?

It just depends. I'd have to imagine most people will max out their allocation of those beers at the release tomorrow. Troy could be holding some Cuts and CFPs back for distro, but then again, I would have to believe those beers won't last a week on the shelf due to low quantity.

EDIT: It also depends on when he delivers beers to those stores, assuming he does. I'm not sure how quickly he typically does that, but others might be more familiar. The thing you have working in your favor is that the weekdays are probably slower at those stores, and if you stop in earlier on your trip, you might beat others to them. Hookemhops13

For some reason I thought I've seen a couple people post that they've bought those in a store up there. Would guess coopers

Yep, no worries. I'm perfectly happy to just hopefully grab some East Bank/Oak Theories.

Had the DH Oak Theory once and it was absolutely amazing. I liked that even more than the Montmorency Fruit Stand I tried (thanks again for these Ryan_G!)

Sounds good, won't keep my hopes up but will be pumped if I get lucky.

Let me know if you have any interest in setting something up while I'm there this time. Planning on packing a 12 shipper so I could definitely bring some stuff. Iris, Nocturn, Lambiek Special, Passion Pom Bu, Beaucoup berry bu, YR, LO hefe....

Edit: also open to other CO folk who have some FS or Cut stuff they would let go.

Might still some be low end or wet hopped low end at base camp.

 

[omgeezo]

Sopris has wet hop low end and cherry Fruitstand as of this afternoon. Lots of other great beers on the shelf too

Yeah got here later than I thought, my boys didn't want to leave the hot springs!

 

[Labors Of Hercules]

how are the beers tho?

 

[omgeezo]

Merlot Cut and Dry Hop Oak Theory are big winners for me.

Seems busier and crowded with more 'beer people' each time I go.

 

[SourMilk]

CFP Plum was my highlight.
Dry Hop Oak theory is delicious.
New East Bank is the best batch yet IMO.
