Sold out of iris and hommage today between 3 & 3:40

Anna magnums were out out at 4:00 today

that's cool as hell

 

[Jared Ruddick]

Left HF at 4:15 yesterday. Did not see Magnums. My wife got the last Hommage! No complaints here.

Get there around 10:30-45 if you want to make sure you're not dealing with any lines. If there's a big release all bets are off though.

This Wednesday we got there at 10:45 not expecting a line yet. There were already 6-8 ahead of us and it quickly filled up after that. And there was no anticipated release, but Hommage was just chillin on the self. No doubt there would've been more if that was publicly announced. I think we were back in the car in under an hour with our growler limit and bottles.

It was not long ago that I could show up at 11:40 on a Wednesday and be 3rd or 4th in line. How I long for the good ol' days of 2013.

Ahhhhh ****. I may still work my schedule around an earlier trip, but killing over an hour waiting to buy ****** beer isn't high on my list. But its a step above drinking said ****** beer.

Thanks for the info folks.

Either way you're going to wait. You can show up at 10:30 and be out the door by 12:30 or show up at 12:00 and be out the door by 2 (if you're lucky)

FEUO you could always skip the growlers and get bottles from the bottles only line to avoid a big wait. Just be forewarned that if any bottles are in danger of selling out, you won't be able to purchase those

I've had better luck going late afternoons on Thursday than I have going early mornings if that helps at all.

 

[OnryAndMean]

I thought the same thing until I went at 4pm on Thursday last week and the line was to the door

Time of year still seems to play a huge role... I remember last year there were plenty of similarly busy days, and this year there have been plenty of slow days as well.

Must be from in the store -- not on the site yet.

 

[Respirologist]

Its on the site. Next Wed release.

Everett aged 28 months. WAT?

 

[OnryAndMean]

Good god I need more Arthur. No way it'll last until FOFA either

 

[techbrew1]

These releases are starting to make me feel like Mugatu

 

[Adam Jackson]

Only managed to get 1 BA Everett last release and split it with my buddy a few days later. Really excited for a second chance and getting 3 more!

I'm down to 6 Arthurs from the last sale so this is also great news. Will be getting 2 cases and drinking these through Winter. I'll be there next week...maybe I'll see some of you.

Also, The talented Darren Hill crafted something new for me..4 things actually. really stoked to see them! They supposedly were oiled last week.

These bottle limits being so high is just incredible! My entire beer budget can now be spent at HFS and no complaints here. I did managed to send out some Arthur and Anna to some buddies and old trading partners. the limits make it easy to share these as gifts so that is exciting.

[Respirologist]

...It's a butt plug isn't it

Probably an unfinished one..... Splinters bro

 

[SecretSquirrel]

Wednesday morning is the best time... sometimes they will have higher limits

I was there this past Wednesday lines were long for no reason it seemed, LOL... I guess Hommage was on the shelf but that wasn't announced did grab a 14' Iris though

 

[SecretSquirrel]

My buddy just left HF - they were selling Hommage and Cantillon Iris today ($40 and $25 respectively). 1 bottle per household total (meaning you had to choose which one you wanted). He said Iris just sold out but there was some Hommage left.

Iris made it longer then Hommage as I was in that line waiting...

If I bought you a pint of Edward, would you explain to me your strange love-hate relationship with Hill Farmstead?

 

[scot1]

Well my biggest dream (or nightmare... depending on how you look at it) has come true...

"We are pleased to announce that we are now accepting MasterCard, Visa and Discover cards for payment in our retail shop."

I've never dropped in on Wednesday, it's usually busy. It's also Summer.
Cantillon bottles were in some Northern VT shops too...picked up an Iris for $22, not at HF.
