AutumnBeerLove do you foresee there being enough Flora, Works of Love and Farmers Wave to last the full day on Wednesday?

Looks like WOL sold out already.

Indeed it is.. Still interested in Flora and Farmer's Wave inventory please

 

[MikeG1]

Cracked a Flora b7 last night with my buddy and holy hell, this batch is bright with really nice wine barrel notes. Definitely more "ready" than b6 was fresh.

Those two will make it through Wednesday.

maybe I'll cannonball it if they will be there Friday :/

 

[CoinStarChange]

I'm getting more disappointed when I see Flora still on their website.

Mainly because it's just getting my hopes up for when I go next Friday and it's inevitably sold out.


Pessimist life.

I'm fun at parties.

I just signed up for the lottery too and since I already took off from work that weekend that means I am definitely in, right?

Hotwire a hotel and purchase a few localvore deals just to be safe

That you're gonna have a good time and most likely plot a return trip as you are driving down Hill Rd after leaving. Enjoy man!

Request a credit limit increase.

On that note, let your CC company know you'll be making an abnormal transaction in VT so they don't decline the card.

Good call, just did that.

Assuming it's moderately busy (it very well could not be), get a growler ticket first, then either grab an onsite pour or pick up some bottles and wait to get called for growler fills. Enjoy the day!

I just checked google street view, the road doesn't look scary at all...am I missing something?

Yes, my post implies that you will immediately be sad about leaving and trying to figure out the next time you can head back up.

That makes much more sense lol, I'm slow sometimes

I think though it should be said the roads can be challenging based on weather conditions for anyone who hasn't been there or driven on a dirt road.

Yes this is definitely true. I have been up there pretty much every month of the year. If you ever plan a trip up during January through March I highly recommend a 4 wheel drive vehicle or snow tires at the very least. I went up with my car once during a storm and let me tell you even with 4 wheel drive it's a little tricky. The rest of the year isn't too bad. In the early spring when the snow is melting there is a ton of mud on the dirt road part and things can be slippery and your car is going to be a mess. Other than that though, it shouldn't be too bad. Have fun up there!

 

[BadJustin]

You non-country folk are cute with your roads may be bad. To you I say, hold my beer and watch this.

Rent a burly ass 4x4 car. I have never been to VT or close, but watch lots of Game of Thrones. It is probably like that.

Especially the dragons. Lots of dragons in Vermont.

Nahhhh man. Big difference in driving like a ******** and handling back country, unpaved, muddy roads. Don't go too fast, plot your course, don't EVER stop in the mud and don't gun it because you'll bury yourself even more. Also, most importantly, know your vehicle limitations and when to not even try it.
