    Hey OHIO....
    It's HERE...at least in Columbus!!!
    Just picked up 2 bottles at Gentile's in Grandview!!!
    GO GET IT... :ugeek:

    Thanks for the heads up. I called and just picked up the last bottle. While I was in there, looks like someone was hoarding 6 bottles to themselves. But at least I got one! :D

    I think I saw those same bottles on the shelf when I was in about 2:30 today!

    I drove like MFC down to the North Market and picked up their last two bottles... When I got down there, the lady informed me that there were actually a few more that the guy didn't tell me about during the phone call, but those "few" (probably around 3) were gone by the time I got there.


    PS -- When you're driving around town, trying to find "Faithfull Ale", songs like Not For You and Rearviewmirror are baaaaaaaad to listen to. :lol:

  • The Root Cellar in Cincinnati just got a case in. They now have 10 bottles left. Go get em!

    I just wanted to let folks know that Faithful Ale is in San Jose, CA!!! I found a place called Wine Affairs in The Alameda that had 'em!! I walked in and it was a swanky wine tasting bar and thought for a second that they probably wouldn't have any.

    The bartender checked her stock behind the bar up and down but couldn't find one but thankfully she asked her fellow co-worker who told her that they were still downstairs as they just received them in!!!

    She proceeds to bring up 4 bottles and told me they were $22 a bottle in which I told her i would take 'em! The other guy ended up giving me a discount though and I ended up only paying $14 per bottle! Sweet!

    Looking forward to cracking one open tonight and listening to a little PJ while doing so! I was so tempted to open up one last night when I got home but I had company over and the bottles were still warm anyway so I decided not to ruin the experience by rushing it.

    LOL, yeah they were on a table with a sticky note attached to them. I asked if he was sure he didn't have any more, he said no. The guy there was real nice though, so I didn't push it. Would have liked to get 2 so I could drink one and save the other. I watched a few reviews on youtube, most people said that it was kind of like a heavy coors light, so I'll probably just keep it sealed.

    On one youtube video, (NotYourDadsBeer.com i think it was), they said that only 2,000 bottles were made for distribution in the US. So doubt there will be any more... But oh well, at least I got one. :mrgreen:

    Very cool, I'm glad you got it. I was hoping some fellow 10C people would get them.

    I live about 5 minutes away from them so I called this morning, he said he got it and I was there 5 minutes later haha.

    I got an email response from the head of midwest sales for dogfish, he said binnys was the best bet. So far, he is right.

    I'll be hitting every place on that fish finder list in about an hour. You're not in the city are you? You want me to grab you a bottle if I come across extras, or just let you know where I got it?

    I think Fish Finder sucks. It never did show the place where I bought it from.

  • Binny's in Algonquin reserved their case for people before it came in. Said they got it in on Monday. Wish my local Binny's would reserve beers. The Binny's in St. Charles said they haven't got any in yet. The Whole Foods in Naperville said they didn't have any either. I called every suburban location on the DogFish Head Fish Finder and all of them said they did a reserve list and they are all spoken for. It sounds like an SOL situation at this point. I know a guy at a mom & pop liquor store that gets DFH, so if they happen to get any ever, I'll be sure to spread the wealth if I can get some.

    :cry: I'm striking out big time here in Chicagoland. Everyplace I have gone to or called has said they had it in and it is sold out. What a load of crap! Everyone was saying they either received them on this past Monday or Tuesday, but they were not up on the Fish Finder until today. I guess you have to be in the right place at the right time. If there is a chance of anyone being able to find some around here and picking me up an extra I would be forever grateful.

    Long time PJ fan here from from Rockford, IL (=middle of nowhere midwest USA) and succummed to the fact that I would not get to try Faithful Ale.

    However, I am currently in Pittsuburgh on a business trip and walked into a niche B&G with Doghead... so I ask "do you have the new Dogfish Head called---" The bartender immediately said "PJ20"? I said "YES". He said "I've got 2 left, but they are $22 each". I said "I'll drink one now, but I cant bring one on the plane back to Chicago". He said, "well you could drink one and save one and put it into your checked luggage". I decided to buy one and share it with a bunch of cool people in the bar and then see what happenned to the next (last) bottle.

    Within minutes, a follow 10C member... almost out of breath... walks in and says "I heard you have Dogfish Head Faithful Ale here"...


    I'm bringing home a good buzz, a great story, a new 10C friend and a great piece of glass (the empty bottle) to little old Rockford, IL

    already got mine in pgh, but im curious as to where you found these? always like to know who's got the good dfh and other beers in my city
    and fuck me if I say somethin you dont wanna hear, fuck me!
    and fuck me if you only hear what you wanna hear
    fuck me...if I care...but im not leavin here
  • For all those that live in Texas, my local HEB ordered me a case (6 bottles)which will be here Friday, just in time for Thanksgiving. FYI :D

    Binnys in lakeview had about twenty bottles an hour or so ago. One per person...only place I've seen it so far.
