Hill Farmstead thread

I like how Harlan is the red-headed stepchild of HF's IPA lineup whereas for most breweries in the country that would be their best/flagship beer.

Two hundred technically is 'hundreds'...

I do not have any reason to think there are 200 bottles. Srs.

So how many bottles does the group thing there are and will it last til Saturday.....

 

[Resuin]

Based on info I've seen, I would think at least 500 bottles (500 mL) if not more; probably similar volume to Satsuma, which I believe was around 1,000 375 mL bottles.

I remember hearing that Satsuma was 1200 bottles. At the DBD release there were just cases of Satsuma sitting in the pickup area. So damn tempting.

That's mainly a commentary on how bad most breweries in the country are at making IPAs.

I like Harlan, and get a growler every time it's on when I'm there.

I want to try to go up for Flora, but the nuttiness may make me wait until next week. If it's gone, it's gone, but I have a feeling it'll last. Notes online from the brewery always tend to be conservative, and they know what kind of foot traffic to expect by now.

I'm not from the area but planning a trip in late July. Check out this thread, it has been a huge help and great starting point for me.

Any reports on the line? Kind of hoping for some butthurt today on Facebook/Twitter/BA/etc. Bored in the office, what can I say.

According to a guy on BA, they were selling Blue Flora on the bottles-only line. He said he was in and out on that line in 10 mins.

No reason not to, not way it's going to sell out today

They don't don't sell the bottles in the bottles line if there's a chance of it selling out.

 

[MikeG1]

So now that it's a shelf turd, who wants to trade me one for some Heady Topper?

 

[Brez071]

Planning on a VT trip late August. Any chance it won't be insanely busy the Wed/Thurs before Labor Day? Hoping people take that week (9/1) off instead of the week before (8/25)

Also sold Soigné magnums to the bottle only line. Kind of messed up for people who were there early but it is what it is. No limit on Soigné 750mls

You found a ride up? Excellent man. If I didn't have my wife's baby shower I might have been tempted to drive up with you.

Still up in the air. There is a strong possibility. Will know for sure tomorrow

No limit on Soigne is dangerous, good thing they don't have an ATM there. I could blow a paycheck on that beer.
