Bout 25 min in/out Friday at 11:00am.
How long is the wait at Treehouse? I've never been due to the time, but could be worth a trip sometime soon esp if they have an outdoor beer garden that opens.
I kinda hope they don't go back to the old way. Like I said above it was abt. 25 min and it was in the comfort of my own car. I was able to read my graphic novel listening to stereo.
If you go out to treehouse and leave with a sour that’s your problem.
For some reason last fall (I think it was after a FB game), I bought tickets to see Kansas in May. When the show was cancelled, the options were to wait another year or get my money back. The choice was clear and the refund hit my credit card at the same time as my Tree House charge. Bottom line, I got 2 cases of Tree House for about 20 bucks. And now it's a perfect day and I'm meeting up with some bar buddies with the haul on ice. Sometimes things work out.
Marlowe's and FOC brew out of Twelve Percent in North Haven. The Eager to Share is phenomenal.
I stopped drinking Sip when non-beer people started drinking it. And when Stop & Shop started selling it. They ruined that beer with over-production.

I once read a quote from the owner/founder of the Alchemist, and it made me very happy to hear. I had to go back and find it so I could quote it correctly. I'll link it as well.
John Kimmiche said, when asked about expanding: "It would ruin the beer. Anybody who would have had partners and corporate investors would have been making 100,000 barrels a year by now because they would have been like 'Yeah, we got something good right here and we're going to exploit the %#@* out of it.' There are guys out there and that's their goal. That's not our goal. Our goal is not to retire on a mountain of money. Our goal is to create a sustainable example of what a business can be. You can be socially responsible and still make more money than you need."
This guy nailed it. He just gets it. I will always support a business like theirs. It makes the beer taste better just knowing that the owner/brewer thinks and feels this way. When I buy their beer (amongst other local brewers Iin CT and MA) I know that my money isn't going to shareholders, executives, or off to foreign countries (Budweiser is now owned by a Belgian company, for example).

I think Lawson's beers are great and they do both the just locally available beers brewed on-site and mass produce Sip so that it is available to a much larger audience. Sip is still absolutely excellent, its just a different drink versus a dense Trillium or Treehouse beer. And its still worthwhile to go up to VT to get the beers they only distribute locally. Similarly I went to Tampa last year, visited Cigar city brewery for some great beers and now love being able to get their Jai Alai in six packs in MA. Very drinkable IPA and l like the 12oz option.
Twelve Percent is now brewing some Hoof Hearted now (out of Ohio) premium stuff
That was the actual name of a racehorse. Giggles from the crowd whenever it ran.
It's amazing.
