    Right on the money, SN makes very good beer at a great price point, but I'm on the like side when it comes to SN.

    Landed in Pensacola yesterday, but bottled date is early March. Tasted fine, but will be looking for fresher stocks.

    Wonder why it took 2 months to hit the sales floor, SN delivers everywhere.

    Wondering the same thing... This was the first shop to get it. I just bought one. Had almost zero nose. Will wait to get more if I find something newer.

    Which Ritchey's do you frequent? I have a condo in Perdido Key and am still trying to find the best craft beer places.

    Was excited to see it at my local shop.
    Always a great beer. I loved it the first year in 24oz bottles. First time I didn't know what I was up against until I tried to stand up after killing a bottle!

    Richeys on Creighton and 9th has by far the bigger selection. Great selection actually. I most frequent the one om Gregory downtown. Smaller selection, but still solid. They'll both have Hoptimum soon. And Founders probably in about 10 days.

    Perdido is tough. My parents live on Innerarity Pt. Check out Anna's fine wines next time you go by Joe Pattis. She has some great beer (last one to have Jai Alai in stock last week). Little expensive though.

    I just got a 4-pack. Fridge is packed, and I don't have a beer fridge, so I'm probably putting these in one at a time.

    I have no idea what to expect from this beer other than a metric fuckton of hops. I'm feeling a very strange combination of trepidation and excitement.

    If you're in RVA, check out Corks 'n' Kegs. TW or OUAV might still have some left.

    I'm in Newport News. I'll check tomorrow after the LPGA event. I hope I can grab a few 4pks! Meanwhile, I'll enjoy this KBS! :grinning:
