My buddy Nick up in Rochester hooked me up with some brews from the northeast that I've never seen before. @mtweller and @jfz80 need to come over for a tasting!!

Does anyone know the best way to ship cases of beer cans? I'm almost out of my favorite cider from Boston and need more. I know you are "technically" not supposed to ship it but it's going to be sad when all of it is gone.

Ooh and here is my sheds new mini fridge loaded up.

Ooooh, yeah! I need to come sometime to slap those caster shims in anyway, might as well drink your beer too eh? ;-)
 
Shipping beer is fairly easy but expensive.

Basically wrap with bubble tape, put in box. Pay with case at Post Office, put a dummy return addy on it. That way it can't be traced back to you if it was to break and leak (not that they would take the time anyway)

Abbrah Cadabrah.... I ship and receive beer on a monthly basis..... only had one box disappear, and one had a bottle of pliny broken when I opened it up.
 
I thought both beer and wine were green-lighted for shipping a few years ago.
Either way, my mother used to have bottles of a preferred "olive oil" shipped to her from time to time.
 
I had beer shipped from Cali a couple years ago - so I could partake in some Pliny. This was a legit bottle shop, so I say it's probably ok???
 
Businesses and online bottle shops can.... you as a private citizen cannot..... just the man keeping us down lol.... there is a bill that is floating around somewhere to make it legal to ship but hasn't gone through yet.
 
I went to Beerfest in Raleigh this past Saturday and the fair grounds. Was a great time! I drank a ass ton if IPAS, but I always went back to Oscar Blues for the Blue Dream Ipa (Think that's the name) and to Sam Adams for their grapefruit IPA. I'll post pics later tonight, of the shenanigans
 
Been enjoying the gose style ales lately and definitely a good match for the hot days to come. Takes some getting used to but really starting to like a few of them.

Westbrook out of SC. They also brew and bottle the gose for mission I believe. Or evil twin one. Both good.

Haven't tried the hardcore chimera dipa but the regular chimera was pretty good. And how do you go wrong with a ramion hybrid ? :D

That Westbrook is still my favorite Gose. I also like the Anderson Valley Blood Orange Gose. The Otra Vez from Sierra Nevada out right now is definitely on the lighter side, but ok.

Tried every beer on the menu at this bar in the Detroit Airport called Slap Shotz.... I recommend it if you are stuck there for a while.

What will sadly most likely be my last Charlotte beer in a long time. Had it last week at the airport. Copper.... not my favorite by a long shot but was also the first Charlotte beer I ever had.

So what did everyone do for National Beer Day yesterday??


I got back way too late and drank way too much to really post last night though.

Went to Elysian Fields down next the Seahawks stadium and drank just about every beer they make 3 times over. Pretty damn nice set up.... and that King Hippo Triple IPA is to die for.
 
I had this . . . it was meh:

Triple Bag | Long Trail Brewing Co.


I did have the new Lagunitas Porter Fusion 34 - -it was also meh.


I had a bunch of crazy stuff two Friday's ago at Sam's Bottle Shop with a customer and forgot to record it. . . Burial Aged something . . . other stuff - - I have to do a better job with recording what I drink :(
