    Columbus...love the IPA
    New Glarus.......if the prices were the same once they got here

    We get many beers here. Always wanted Deschutes and now that its here I wont pay $42+tax for a case. Beware what you ask for.

    Enjoy

    Bell's would be nice. Within reason given their size. It's not like I'm asking for Sante Adairius, Toppling Goliath, or Tired Hands :rolling_eyes:

    New Glarus: I went to college in Wisconsin and Spotted Cow came out right when I was in college...it was my first experience with good, craft beer. I wish I could find it out here.

    Cigar City: Took a vacation to Florida with my wife, and we flew into Tampa. Got to go to Cigar City twice, once on the way down to our destination and once on the way back to the airport. Also picked up a bunch of six packs and bombers to enjoy during our stay down there. I'd love to have access to their stuff again.

    My area gets a good amount of brands...I just wish we got every beer by those brands.
    We get plenty of Founders Centennial IPA and Breakfast Stout, but no KBS.
    We get plenty of Goose Island Sofie and Pepe Nero, but almost no BCBS (and NONE of the variants).
    We get plenty of Maine Brewing Co...but no Lunch.
    We get plenty of Firestone Walker Double Jack and Wookey Jack, but no Sucaba or Parabola.
    Etc. ad inf.

    Man, I'm so confused. You live in Georgia, your handle is "PhillyStyle", and you have an IU logo for an avatar - that's like a ding dang tri-fecta from hell!! :grimacing:

    Westvleteren, Cigar City and the full line of DFH would make life so much more interesting in South Texas. Thank God for Jester King. :-)

    Given all the wonderful stories I've heard about their stuff, Hill Farmstead. If I'm willing to drive an hour or pay the prices I can sometimes find Cigar City or Russian River or whatever product in the area. HF I can't even get a whisper of without driving to the state itself.
