Centennial, Citra, and Simcoe green hops arrive at High Gravity tomorrow. I'm bringing what wasn't pre-sold to the meeting. Bring your cash.

Yep. Bob definitely has a hop addiction! If he doesn't deal with his problem soon, he'll become a bitter man. lmao

Yah!!! When in doubt, call them at HG. Technology only seems to work to a point, then an old school phone call saves the day. Does anyone other than me think that technology acts counterproductive to our human need to talk directly to someone? My biggest pet peeve is drive throughs. Most companies bust their butts to serve the lazy customer who can't bothe to get off his ass to come in to their place of business and ignores those that do. Perplexed by that one.

I was in there yesatrday and they had some - going again tomorrow and will recheck. I'll ask them to put one aside for you

beermaker

04 Sep : 02:08PM

I guess someone must have bought up all the Roeselare. It says out of stock.

I was recently at the brouwers cafe which rated the highest beer bar on ratebeer - underwhelming but the lamb burger was good. worth a trip if you are close to downtown seattle

Big Time, Elysian & Pike in Seattle. I've also heard that Freemont is good, but it opened since my last visit. If you get near Mt. Hood then visit Walking Man. Visit Silver City (Silverdale) if you get across the Sound or if you go up the 5, then stop at the Fishbowl (home of Fish Tale Ale) in Olympia. Also look for Diamond Knot IPA on draught. Enjoy the beer & the scenery!
