    I've never seen Berkshire bombers sitting outside of a fridge. I wonder if BBC or their distributor enforces it more strongly somehow.

    Its been that way forever. I've heard of them pulling product from places that weren't storing them in fridges. It's great they do that but lots of stores carry their whole line and bomber space is usually pretty limited compared to six pack space. Doesn't leave much room for other breweries.

    Just picked up two fresh (bottled in June) bottles in SE Mass. Very excited to try this beer fresh again. Also picked up a bottle of Hopulence DIPA which I'm looking forward to trying for the first time. Not messing around with 120+ IBU's

    Okay, back again. I'll be heading out to the Worcester area this weekend. Where can I be sure to find some fresh Be Hoppy bottles at? Thanks!

    Go right to the source. Peppercorns. Great food and bottles filled right there. Also can try a flight of other wormtown brews.

    Has anyone seen this around Boston? I'm looking to try this one and haven't been able to find it.

    Now that you brought it up, I actually haven't seen it in Boston for awhile. I wonder what's up

    Picked up a couple bottles a couple weeks ago at Redstones. Nice beer... am I right remembering I paid $8.99 a bottle, but I bought a good load and can't recall exactly !

    Love this beer. Can't wait until its in cans... We typically get it 1-3 months old... and it doesn't tend to sit on the shelves. As of now, the bottles in the fridge are "bottled in August" & we just got a shipment bottled in sept. This is one of my goto IPA's, love it.

    I bought one at my local place and it was bottled in May. Nice beer but would like to try it fresh.

    I thought Be Hoppier was great, grapefruit juice all the way.

    Fresh Be Hoppy is on par with any of those 'Best Beer in the World" candidates.

    It was bottled in May and you still bought it?? Or did you find out after?
