Anyone know when IST will be hitting distro?

EDIT: Also, I've posted in FT/ISO before but I'll just mention it here again. If anyone knows someone with an '09 or earlier IST they might be willing to trade PM me please

Best of luck. The one old guy I had was absolutely sublime, and a) don't like stouts b) really don't like old stouts.

Anyone try the new Fat Ten-er yet?

 

[DrWangerBanger]

I managed to get some on Friday, it wasn't my favorite. I remember liking their previous smoked fat ten-er significantly more. The smoke in this one was toned down, so some people may prefer it.

Although there was another long line at NEBCO this afternoon, I`m digging the Motueka pale ale. The fat-tener smoked porter isn`t too shabby either, not overly smoky or off-putting imo.

I enjoyed the Motueka pale as well. Haven't had my growler of FT 12 yet and didn't grab a sample.

Tweet from NEBCO: @NewEnglandBrew: Dear stores gouging your customers, you suck. Dear customer, let the bottles or cans rot. There's plenty of other great stores and beer.

I assume they're talking about IST? I wonder if any of the stores I frequent are doing this.

Saw that a little while ago. Coriolis is my favorite beer from them. Maybe I'll try to stop by later...

 

[lambandtunaphish]

Anyone have a line update?

Don't want to get cut off when they close at 7 sharp (if I get there in 15minutes).

I left around 4:30, line was still about 40-50 people, but seemed to be moving faster than it was at 3 to 4.

Edited to add: I'm sipping it now. Coriolis is NEBCO's best beer. It just is. You can all keep your Ducks.

There`s random messages from people upset about the Gandhi-Bot name on FB ... quite a few of them. :

"alayalees satrted new sanitary napkin brand named as George Washington......... **** off brewing company"
"How dare you insult the father of a nation by using the name in a beer? We already know the culture of your nation and what made you itching in your bloody buttocks. If you want, use the name of your king or queen. Get lost you F******"
"The drink and the drug evil is in many respects infinitely worse then the evil caused by malaria and the like; for, whilst the latter only injure the body, the former saps both body and soul. -MAHATMA GANDHI"

WTF ? At least I see that @averagejoe & some others posting beer related things again now

 

[averagjoe3]

Also this brewing company please stop disrespecting our Gandhi
