    ... I have a ton of ipa's to drink this weekend (six pack of cigar city's Jai Alai, Russian River Blind Pig, Avery's Majaraja, and New Belgium's Rampant) but perhaps next i'll dig into some of that 8-)
    Wow nice line up. Jai Alai is probably my fave ipa fresh-out-the-tap. Haven't been as blown away by it in a bottle but we don't get it up here in Virginia so I don't have a ton of samples in my "study". :P

    I've sadly only had it on tap a long time ago :(

    I was in panama city last weekend (we don't get it in georgia either) walked into their bottle shop and grab a case of it for home and a 12 pack for the weekend (that stuff is NOT cheap but it is good)

    Amazing... we can get beer from all over the world and the USA, but we can't get beer from our next door neighbor.

    Tonight's growler sampling...

    New Belgium Lips of Faith Heavenly Feijoa. Not bad. A little like drinking a goblet of tart wine.

    Now onto a Shark Attack by Port Brewing. More my style.

    Now if the Hoosiers would start playing ball like the big 10 champs should... :x

    Just picked up a bottle of Dogfish Head "Ta henket". I'm hoping the price means it will be good :shock: I know some of the DFH's are more about just being weird ("off centered etc etc) but I am on a mission to try all of them anyway.

    My local shop is supposed to get KBS on Monday! This is always a happy day of the year. We are supposed to be getting 2 cases, 120 shipped to WI, so we're pretty happy with that! I'll open 1 and add the other 3 to the cellar.

    What does a 4 pack usually cost? I am going to try and get some up here.

    Usually around $20. I would contact your local retailer and ask if they're getting it, and if they are willing to set some aside. I know for some stores around here (Woodman's) people show up as soon as they open, wait for the delivery, then clean them out.

    Ok, thanks. I contacted Superior Liquor and they didnt have any. I usually go to Woodmans so I will give them a call. Kind of funny that a grocery store has the best beer and liquor store in town.

    Edit - Called Woodmans. They were taking names and limiting to one 4pack. They will call when it comes in. Sweet!!

    We get our shipment Monday, not sure on the delivery schedules up there. And Woodman's not only has a great selection, they usually get all of the limited releases. Founders does their special releases based on allocation. The more cases you sell, you accumulate points as a retailer, and that moves you up in release priority and amount. For small shops, it's impossible to get close to the Woodman's numbers.
