After all the trips I've made to the Three Floyds Brewpub it pick up Zombie Dust, I never dreamed I'd be able to drive to Total Wine here in VA and get it, but that i did yesterday.
The reason this will probably only be a one time purchase….the cans are dated, but they are in packaging where you can't read the can date. I knew the first batch would be relatively fresh (2/18), but in the future, who knows when the cans will be from.
And Zombie Dust drops off quickly.
There is dating on the ZD packages

Took me a minute, but found it. Thanks. There's a lot going on with the packaging graphics. Wonder if the aforementioned Jai Alai has the same?
Haven't had one yet. Good beer to take on a hike, and next week's looking like hiking weather.

I think i saw somewhere else in VA getting a keg, so this sounds reasonable.

I know that one’s popular, but what’s the deal with it?

Tried a can yesterday. Pretty terrible. Malt bomb. Canned 2/8. I'll be taking Palatine Pils on my next hike (thanks Yada)

I know you guys don't have many friends (KIDDING!!), but you don't know anyone in DC willing to accept a package? Or your wife's office when she's there 70 hours a week?

Somebody has to sign for it, I presume? That’s where it gets a little tricky. Thanks for the link, tho. Definitely thinking about it.
And, yeah, if I could pick it up at the club I’d be able to get the poop bag holder they now have on sale. I got one for free at Anthem and it just broke.

All my friends either died, moved out of the area, or don't talk to me anymore. And my wife works 70 hours at home. And my office would not receive an alcohol shipment.
Anyway, if I'm paying a shipping premium, I want it delivered to my door.
Plus, maybe the biggest reason…I just don't get that hard for lagers. Even the best of them. Though I'm about the homebrew a maibock, which I'm hoping will be at least half as good.

I get it! It doesn't work for everyone, just trying to spread the beer wealth and knowledge here while accepting shots from all the h8ters.
To be honest, this shipping to DC/PA thing was a complete coincidence that was announced yesterday.
My package process went like this for those who care:
Shipped to my childhood friend who lives in the Hudson Valley in NY >
She works from home and accepts package via a signature >
Her parents visit her this past weekend in NY >
They take said package back to my hometown >
My parents pick up package and visit me this weekend in MoCO
Peep those logistics.

Since the pandemic began, I have bought or consumed beer in person in eight states plus the DMV. So who am I to judge.
