Connecticut... What's going on?

framboise noir is fantastical. that is all

Yea framboise was really solid - sounds like pretty much all of the releases today weren't too insane. Let's keep that trending.

Why am I seeing Elijah Craig "12 year" front label bottles everywhere now? Total Wine even had handles of it...

Also snagged a HW Yippee Ki Yay bottle in Tolland county today.

Kind of a bummer that there won't be samples when Kent Falls opens
http://www.kentfallsbrewing.com/soon/

I guess they word it as if that's the scenario when they first open, but writing "serving alcohol on a farm/in a rural area is a risky proposition" doesn't really make me think that will change in the future.

I actually asked one guy at Amity about this and he said it seems random. One case has the 12, the next doesn't ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've heard growlers in the future though.

cancel it or move it earlier

Anyway, since I'm not gonna make it back to SoNo ... where should I have go for dinner that night in the New Haven area? Monday happens to be my birthday and I pretty much just go to the same few places all the time. Anyone got a favorite place that I'm probably missing?

A billion... Soul de Cuba being high on the list if you haven't been there.

Only been there once. Would bang again/10.

I don't eat there out of principle.....The waitstaff do not keep their tips. They get paid a flat wage of like $10/hr and the "house" keeps all the tips. I think that's insane, and should be illegal (it probably is illegal). If you do go there, don't tip.

****, that sucks. I had no idea.

Yea, thats my point lol...I'm sure there are very few people who eat there regularly that are aware of this . I honestly didn't believe it so I asked my waiter when I was there for lunch one day and he confirmed. I tried to sneak him a cash tip and he wouldn't take it. Ah well.....I make a better cubano at home anyways

Can walk to De legna, still haven't gone. I am not a smart man.

I won't make it til a little after 6 (I'm training in) and it sounds like CSDaSmack will be arriving at a similar time. CMON!

Confirmed dolt. Hard to walk past modern for other pizza though.....

I'd be better if you just stayed at home.

and for good measure:

I hear the small plates are better than the pizza.
