    I've seen a 10/15 and a 10/28 batch, are there newer batches?

    I believe there is, but not sure the dates. I have been told by our wholesaler that of all the regular seasons (not high altitude) such as summerfest and celebration, they make the least amount of celebration due to higher cost to make it than the rest of their seasonal lineups. So there's a chance you may not see any fresher than the dates you mentioned.

    All I know is I've already bought four sixers of the stuff since it showed up in November and I'm not even remotely tired of it.

    I got some of a 10/28 batch a few weeks ago.

    I've noticed that cold packs are no longer in my stores, so does this mean production is almost done for the year? Is it time to stock up a bit?

    Seeing the same thing. Been seeing it on sale on the floor at quite a few places with Ruthless taking up its space in the cooler.

    This year we had 22 bottlings of Celebration. The first was on 9/30/13 and the most recent was 12/2/13.
    We had 12 rackings (keggings) as well ranging from 10/4-12/6.

    Sadly, Celebration is all done for the year, so if you want some more, better stock-up while you can.

    Hope this helps,

    -Bill
