Kevin?

Yes?

 

[PrinceCaspian]

Yes?

Wait... are y'all just now figuring out that AutumnBeerLove, who has been posting authoritative statements about how HF retail works, is actually Kevin, who authoritatively knows what's going on in HF retail?

 

[SecretSquirrel]

Yes?

Maybe?

Newbs or folks who previously gave zero ***** (and likely still do)?

CD15 is fantastic! All the mango! Might have surpassed Plum Flora as my favorite fruited beer.

Cannot wait to open one. I think that'll happen in the next few days.

Awesome visit today. Being greeted with a pour of cask Table Dorothy was a nice touch! It was also my first time trying Cigar City. The girlfriend loved Huna (both the BA version at Hill and the regular at Parker Pie) and has put in her request for a bottle.

Had some Convivial on tap at Bridgeview Tavern in Sleepy Hollow tonight. It was absolutely on point, certainly the best pour of Convivial I've ever had. Unfortunately, I have zero clue whether it was a new keg or an older batch.

Also opened a bottle of 3/2015 Arthur last night, and that was super nice as well.

my guess is new batch...last bottle i had was absolutely fantastic.

also cd15 is the real deal, and cd13+cheese was ****** sublime

 

[yeedog]

Did CD15 sell out or will there be some left this week?

whatever they were pouring at Parker was amazing too... best Convivial I recall since batch 1.

Great to hear, Driving up Thursday from Pittsburgh to spend the weekend!

Gene/Os - Speaking of older HF, I cracked a 2013 Arthur over the weekend. Damn it's holding strong. I was a little leery, but its still delicious.

 

[JulianB1]

Fingers crossed that at least one of Arthur or Anna is available over Thanksgiving week. Seeing them both on the bottle list right now scares me a bit that they will be gone by then.

 

[averagjoe3]

had the Convivial at Blackback on Friday. same thoughts, drinking great

id certainly think the former will be there, anna has been up for a while though

 

[yasky]

Willey's may still have some Anna if the brewery is sold out

*EDIT: For the 3 guys that care, if Hill Farmstead was using Yellow Mango's (the sweeter ones) for CD15 machine peeling would have crushed the **** out of them. Plus I'm not certain if Shaun has access to a machine that can peel Mangos*

 

[tehzachatak]

Is there a new convivial batch? need to keep dat vert stacked

 

[Jmonah3]

Fear and Trembling: Smoked Baltic-Style Porter.500ml, $10. Limit 4 bottles per person.

 

[BeerWorld]

I will be at HF on Wednesday at the open. Since I am traveling by myself I am looking for someone to split a bottle of CD13 with around that time. Please let me know if anyone would be interested. Cheers.
