Today I received...

[Balog]

A free growler of Lucille IPA from Georgetown Brewery. They're out of their double red that I usually get and I had some credit left over from the last run (one of my co-workers goes down every Thurs to fill growlers for a bunch of us).

I shall report on this on the morrow.

mmmmm...

 

[MatticusMania]

Im headed to La Jolla tomorrow, might have to bring my Stone growler and make a side trip to Escondido for a refill. Wait... not might... WILL.

 

[kdiggity]

There's the spirit!

Stone 15yr double black IPA yesterday. Mmm.....

Where did you get such a fantastic sounding brew? I may have to bring home 2 liters of this!

 

[kdiggity]

Around these parts it's pretty common, especially in smaller towns and villages, for dudes to roll into the local watering hole with any kind of container they can muster, and have the 'tender fill it up to go with the brew of their choice.

I'm talking any kind of container - water jugs, old milk cartons, 3L bottles, whatever.

Yes, it's as awesome as it sounds.

and 10.6% of pure deliciocity!

Bradley's liquor down the street from my house. They have all the good stuff. I am a regular customer now

EDIT: May be a good idea to make it 4 liters. Of course, this would involve a side trip to Tustin, as well...

 

[MatticusMania]

Hmm, well Tustin would be on my way home from La Jolla. Only your brew would be sitting in the car for too long, as Im not positive on the days timeline. I might hit up the brewery on the way TO La Jolla so as to enjoy some delicious beer on the beach! Stone recommends finishing the growler within 24 hours of being poured for maximum freshness!

San Diego outlawed drinking on the beach a couple years ago. Heads up.

Thanks. A lot of places have outlawed drinking on the premises. Thats never stopped me!

Growlers are about $14 for the 2L container, and another $14 to fill it up.
We may stay overnight in San Diego, though.

I am now on the prowl. Thanks for the weekend mission. Although it may turn into a goose chase here in KY, IN, OH tri-state.

Man, I wish I was with in driving distance of the Stone brewery.

It is a privilege I do not take lightly!

You've given me an idea...I need to take a trip to Russian River and Stone breweries. I have been assimilated by the OC lifestyle. I need me some a dem good beers!

Ya know, back where I'm from, you can't hardly get anything but OE, St Ides and your standard beers

If you can find it, it is definitely worth it. That was some good, good stuff man!

There was a LOT of pushback on it when it happened and it was being actively patrolled. Fines were unpleasant. Guitarist at the time got fined and he wasn't actually in possession. Just letting you know...

Foiled again! According to the usual suspects who carry Stone brews around here, it hasn't been released in the area yet but they are expecting it in the coming weeks. Thanks for the heads up as I'll for sure keep my feelers out.

I'll definitely keep aware. Ive done a lot of drinking in places I wasnt supposed to, especially on beaches! Inconspicuous containers help! I believe w emight be hanging on a bit more, um, privatized beach as it is.
