    Always overlooked this beer. Now I got something to look forward to. I know I can find it but will it be fresh?

    I remember trying Be Hoppy at ACBF (I think) and being absolutely blown away by it. Quite possibly the best hoppy beer out of MA (no offense to Hoponius which I love).

    Just picked up a couple bottles of CBC Flower Child. It's reminds me of a slightly toned down Flower Power. Really nice.

    Is that the 5/21 batch? The 5/7 was awesome.

    Hmm. Does mbc typically have bottle to bottle variation?

    Also, how often does MBC typically bottle a new batch of lunch?

    I'm not sure. Through much of last year their batches were very hit or miss - the past few batches I've had this year were much better and on par with the Lunch from early 2012.

    Have been looking the last few days and was curious if anyone might know where there might be Lunch in the Greater Boston area (preferably downtown or the South Shore). The only store that I know that seems to always have Lunch is about two hours away.

    Thanks for the reply. I was thinking back about the last place I saw Lunch, and I think Granite was it. Funny, a few weeks ago I was looking for Stillwater Holland Oats and Jack's Abby Smoked Maple Lager and couldn't seem to find either in the Boston area (pretty sure Granite ended up having Holland Oats), but saw Lunch a couple of times and kind of started to think that Lunch wasn't too hard to find. Now, I am looking for Lunch and can't find it.

    I called Granite and they are out right now.

    If anyone can give me a heads up if they see a bottle in the next few days, I would appreciate the help. Thanks.
