That's a lot of aged IPAs. I'm only about 25 minutes from Worthy Burger so this sounds great anyway. Unfortunately I'm supposed to work that night, perhaps I'll get sick and have to miss a shift? Dangerous world out there.
 
I am going to be driving to VT for the first time this Friday, Burlington area gets Sip of Sunshine deliveries on Friday right? Anyone know around what time it arrives and the shops sell it? I am hoping I can arrive there like 11a or noon, grab some bottles and head to HF...

Sip of Sunshine is out at various locations in greater Hartford and Fairfield counties. Canned date is 2/13/15
 
Anyone heading up towards Providence/Boston with some fresh Sip of Sunshine?

Meet up in person and swap for some Hill Farmstead...?
 
A rather basic question, but are non-Sip Lawson's beer still only being sold at Warren, Hunger Mountain, and Winooski? I figured that would be the case but didn't know if any of their beers brewed in Vermont were now making it to some of their newer retail locations.

Yes.
 
Is anyone staying in Waterbury overnight on the 17th for the anniversary party on the 18th? If so, just trying to figure out if there's already a planned share going down somewhere...
 
Lawson's hasn't been worth the time/effort since other brewers have finally learned how to brew a great IPA.

Ok, Double Sunshine is still great.

I think Sip of Sunshine is pretty awesome for something that's brewed on a 100 barrel system (correct me if I'm wrong on that number, but I recall hearing it).

Totally agree on their non-DS bottled offerings that I've had. Good beers but most are/were riding the DS hype train.

I was speaking to the VT-brewed stuff, although I can't say I'd chase trucks if I was in CT for Sip.
I'll grab Sip 4pks if I happen to see them around. Priced competitively to other local 4pks and tasty, but Heady is easier to come by, so that is in my fridge more often.

None of his bottled stuff (sans-DS) is worth the time in line/waiting or price.
Fayston's (and varients) are boring and don't touch the big boys as far as BA stuff goes.

Hype machine is strong.

Agree to all of that except the "Heady is easier to come by so" - much easier for me to get Sip, so yeah.

And Double Sunshine is still probably the best IPA ever made.
 
Hard to beat the show up Tuesday between 11am and 5pm at the store that is 3 blocks down the street to get HT :)

Sip still seems to be a random(?) monthly delivery in VT. I'm sure there is a schedule to it, I just don't pay attention, lol.

I thought Rum Fayston was delicious last year. Other than that I agree.
