    I bought 2 bottles at B&C Liquors on Rte 44 in Smithfield on the 17th.
    Drank one that night and the other earlier today.
    It's really good, but I prefer Enjoy By.

    The hoppiest beer I've had all year. I found them for $6.99 here in Wilmington, NC.

    This beer was OK, but definitely not balanced by any means. Overly sweet, overly bitter and overly boozy. Just over the top in every way, which I guess is what it is supposed to be. I prefer Enjoy By to this any day of the year...a much more juicy/fruity IPA with more balance.

    Got a bottle at hyvee in springfield, MO today, so it has almost certainly hit KC and saint louis already.

    I like this beer a great deal. Definitely not overly boozy. Its not Enjoy By, because its not supposed to be. I like both and will keep both in the fridge to the degree I can obtain them. BTW, Ruinten is a palate wrecker (does Green Flash send their attorneys after me?). If you plan on having another beer during the session, put RuinTen at the end.

    Got a couple of bottles in Bellingham, WA about a week ago. I'll be curious to see how long it lasts around here.

    The beer was good, but it didn't live up to all the hype. In my opinion, Enjoy by was better

    I enjoyed it, but I got sick of it after 1 glass. Nice to try, no need to have it again.

    That's the right call. Enjoy By flew off the shelves in most places in a matter of hours. The four stores in MA/CT where I asked about it said they had waiting lists in advance, not even knowing how much they get. One store in Hartford had three cases, most of which was spoken for in advance. The rest only got a case each.

    Not so with Ruin10. Everyone seems to have it, but there's a lot of gouging going on. I've seen the full range from $7.50 to $10 (rounding off--Costco around here doesn't carry them, but has Sam Adams Select and some Belgians). And these are places that normally don't overprice. I had it on tap for $7.75, which is not a bad deal (figure roughly the same price for a bit more than half the amount).

    6 bucks at my local bottle shop. That beer was incredible...I missed out on the last one so this is new to me. I felt that it was insanely tame and well balanced for it's high alcohol. So I just chugged it and burped hops in my dog's face. And my dog was like "Mannnnnn that was hella cool, give me more". "Sorry pup, everybody gets one."

    Yea, it hit St Louis today. I got an email from my local shop.

    Hopefully I'll be able to get a bottle this weekend.
