Very nice. I've got a set just hanging out waiting for me to get thirsty

Got the last 4 pack of Moon Shoes yesterday.

Nice. I hope you like it. I

Wife and I are both impressed

This could be interesting:

I'm going to try to track some of that down, but I need to avoid skipping out for hours during the middle of the day on my first week back at work since I broke my leg in December.

Central Market tweeted out a picture of not a collab in store

If Twitter is accurate, it's plentiful. Seeing it several places with no limit.

Yeah, seems to be the case. My local HEB (San Felipe/Fountainview) won't get it til tomorrow and Total Wine at San Felipe/S Post Oak said tomorrow or Thursday.

We're spending the weekend in Galveston, I definitely need to get me some of that!

In Portland until Thursday...they have any good beer places here? I kid.

Probably hit up Cascade, Great Notion, Hair of the Dog. Any other recs? I've been to a few dozen here over the years, but it's been a while

Love me some SoS

Wife and I are headed up to Boston for Memorial Day and a few days after. Any suggestions for breweries, bars, restaurants, and other touristy stops? We aren't sure if we will rent a car, but already have tickets for a Red Sox game a trip to Trillium, and freedom trail planned.

I think the green was better than the white and red.

Was just there 2 weeks ago with my wife.

• Realize that the Trillium location on Congress St isn't for onsite consumption. Cans/bottles/growlers to go. If you're in the area (right by Trillium) go to Fort Point Market & Craft Beer Cellar to buy other cans/bottles.
• When you get to the end of Freedom Trail (Bunker Hill), keep walking a few more blocks and go to Brewers Fork. Up in this direction is also Mystic Brewing.
• Lamplighter Brewing by MIT

Digging what I've tried from Hudson Valley Brewing so far. Nice flavor combo here of blackberry, vanilla bean and lingering hops on the finish. Not too sweet or sour.

same here in August

This week or next, Trillium opens their Beer Garden for the summer at the corner of Atlantic and High Street downtown. I stumbled upon it opening day last year; long wait at 5:00, but it was worth it.

Boston is a fantastic city.

As was said previously, the Trillium location on congress is just a bottle shop. But next door is Row 34, which is an Excellent restaurant with a tremendous tap list. Worth the stop if you're over there picking up bottles.

Trillium has been opening a beer garden on the Greenway during the summer, that's the spot to go for on-site consumption in the city: http://www.trilliumbrewing.com/greenway-garden/

Night Shift is great. If you want to hunker down for a while, Ciao pizza is nearby and they deliver to the brewery. Mystic and Idle Hands aren't too far away, but Night Shift was my favorite of the group.

Neptune Oyster is an amazing spot for oysters or lobster rolls. It's right off the freedom trail.

You definitely don't need a car if you're staying in Boston (Unless you want to go out to Lexington/Concord). Plus who wants to pay for parking?

Not to hijack the Boston recommendations but the wife and I are headed to Seattle over Memorial Day. Any recommendations there? Beer, food, drinks, hiking, other are all welcome.

Yeh I'd recommend you do all that while in Seattle.

Thanks for all of the suggestions!

Anyone try Not a Collab yesterday? I have a work HH at Kirby Ice house and looks like they've still got it on draft.

Nothing earth shattering, but definitely a solid IPA.

Good enough for me. I'll def be giving it a shot given the chance.
