    Picked up 3 a few weeks ago while in TN. Going to open one this weekend. Probably cellar one and the other will probably go to a friend in town. Can't wait to try this!

    Picked one up a while ago and thought my area had sold out. Found one on the shelf today, excited !

    This beer blew me away! I haven't had a Stout this good in a long time. So smooth and the ABV is completely hidden. Mitch Steele hit a home run with this one.

    I have been seeing this beer on the shelf for a few weeks now. Word must not be traveling to quickly here. Made multiple stops since the release and grabbed at least one on multiple occasions. No complaints here.

    Still haven't found it in NC yet. Any GA people seen it yet? I'll be in Savannah for the weekend.

    I've seen it come and go in Columbus GA, so maybe you can find a few bottles while in Savannah.

    Thank you. From what I can tell, Habersham would be the place to go. Any other suggestions for bottle shops?

    Picked up 3 so far, drank two of them and sticking one in the cellar for about 6 months. It's definitely a good brew, but I think some time will fix some of the clashing bitter attributes I found with it. Selling for $7.99 here in Ohio, looks like that's about as high as it goes. Still a decent buy.

    Killer beer, just tried it last night. The last couple IRS have been dissapointing, but this one fires on all cylinders. Aroma matches the flavor perfectly.

    didn't see this thread before posting elsewhere, but as said, keep your eyes open - multiple Costco locations in Northern Cali are carrying both the IRS & EIRS for $4.99

    I'm sure that is the case in SoCal as well.
