Don't be too jealous...

[BeanoNYC]

Went to the distributor today in anticipation of my wife's family coming to visit. I thought I would share some pictures of this masterpiece as it progressed.

Half way full:

112 Bottles of happiness:

Closer shot:

6 bags of ice to top it off:

The Cooler is closed to work its magic until Friday.

Some favorites of mine in there:

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale
Magic Hat #9 and Blind Faith
Sam Summer

I'll be over in the morning...

What time should I show up?

9 PM should do it. Greg could take the ferry over to you, then you can head together. :beer: Just be sure to bring Bob, I owe him a few Newcastles from the concert in Camden, NJ a few weeks ago.

I also got the Magic Hat Circus Boy .... it's a Hefeweizen, quite tasty.

Fat Angel too.

Fat Angel is good. Not big on that other one. It's okay, but I like others better. Now if you had some Magic Hat HI.P.A in there, I would definitely be hopping on that ferry!

I love the HI.PA, but alas they didn't have any. Magic Hat is tough to come by in any quantity around here.

I think it's a seasonal brew anyway. Spring, I believe.

Yep, I just checked their website...March through May. By the way, that site is a pain in the neck to navigate!

 

[Marc]

Too late I'm jealous.



I hope you have another cooler identical to that one for when I show up.

 

[andyzee]

I'll take the Brooklyn East India Pale Ale. What time should I stop by?

...oops the cooler just got opened.

 

[Greg]

...oops the cooler just got opened.

111 bottles of beer on the wall

Ok...Time of a lock:razz:

The Magic Hat website does in fact suck. It's one of the worst websites I've ever been on.

I'll take the Blind Faith and Sam Summer. #9 is piss - definitely not one of Magic Hat's better offerings (speaking of which I think Magic Hat has gone downhill in the past couple of years).

I can't make out all of the beers but it looks like you need a stout and porter in that cooler (2 styles of beer that are never out of season for me).

 

[BeanoNYC]

You're correct on needing a porter. I go to the bar down the block for my stout.

I agree, the only MH I like is the HIPA. This time of year is always tough for me, all the seasonal I like(HIPA, various barleywines, other 'big' beers') move on to seasonals I don't like.. the "summer" beers just don't do it for me. Fortunately Smuttynose is back to producing the robust porter full time again:grin:

Nice selection- ought to be somethign in there for everyone (if they get there before Marc does, anyway). I do enjoy the Brooklyn brews.

When my in-laws come to town I only need one bottle to get me through the weekend - a liter of Wild Turkey 101*.

Saw a Sam Smith's in there - reminds me of Grendel's in Harvard Square from a million years ago. Good brew.
