"a tiny something beautiful" from Maine was awesome. ive never seen it before but a got a real fresh bottle the other night. highly recommend. only thing is it is a light drinker to me, i could drink 10 of these in a night but at $10 a bottle .... i'd need to move up a tax bracket first.
Maine puts out some quality brews.

big daddy, how do you live the good life with 3 kids? i got 1 and i cant even get away to driving range for an hour.
dang, looks like RAR is doing some good work out there.
Port City is doing a gold medal tour following their wins at the great Amer beer fest and will have their winners on tap. do i have to buy 3 more growlers now?
noticed stone is finally bringing out their "enjoy by" but it is until 10.31.15. its not at DTC yet but they have it listed as coming soon. I was expecting an "enjoy by 11.24.15".
has this 10.31 been out but just not in Mo Co? i like DTC but hate Mo Co distribution.
where the fuck is the bells? where the hell is 51 rye?
The enjoy by showed up here about a week and a half ago. That is still late even for MD. The distributors here are the worst and will sit on beers at there warehouses even though the fresher the better.
My lineup tonight is:
Sierra Nevada Harvest
Cigar City Jai Ali
Founders Dark Penance
Founders Breakfast Stout
Genesee Cream Ale sprinkled in between.
I was hoping to get Founders Harvest today but the store I was at wasn't getting it in until later.

The stone enjoy by I'm sipping on now is freakin top notch. Tasty....nice and cold too.
I'm gonna tell u what gets me pissed is at whole foods in Connecticut I'm looking at all the great beers I can't can't get in va. I reach for Cambridge brewing company bombers...bottling date is from May. Are u fucking serious? Whole foods gonna peddle beers bottle in May while charging me an arm and leg? So disappointing...clown shoes brewery same deal...really wanted to try

Did you get a chance to try their Steel Rail Pale Ale ,very nice .Haven't had their Lost Sailor it will be on my list for the week,thanks.
Some of the beers based up their (BBC are some) are not pasteurized so they don't have very much of a shelve life some as little as 30/60 days.I buy a case or two to bring back but it's always gone by December.

you gotta get up to DC or go south to N Carolina i ssuppose. I thought Richmond would have a good distribution going on down there w some really good local breweries. i guess not. sucks.

Those beer bottling issues was from a Whole Foods up in Connecticut. We have pretty decent selections down here when it come to distribution. Our breweries and Va beer in general...gotta say its just ok. Lotta newbies.
In regards to the Stone's Enjoy by (which i did get in Connecticut) was bottled on 9/24 with the Enjoy by 10/31.
the one I drank on friday was top notch, very crisp hops. I thought it drank really light...which could be dangerous if i got the 6 pack.
