    I can not find any Bell's Mars in central Illinois, Bloomington Normal / Peoria area. I called both friar tucks and binnys they said they only got a case or so and its all gone.

    I hope i didn't miss out on this brew

    You probably did. It was bottled 7/30. Every place I know of has been out for a few weeks.

    It was on tap at the Eccentric Café last weekend. :wink:

    Edit - still on the web cam, so how serious of a ticker are you?

    IMO, not worth 4-5 hour drive from central IL.

    It is a good beer, but I think you have the right outlook.

    This came and went within 2-3 days here in Michigan. I still have 4 bottles left and would be willing to trade you one if you're that dead set on trying it

    I know it's not very close to you, but Binnys Niles still had some today. So there is still hope in finding it.

    I was ISO two days after the release and 60 miles from the brewery. Still struck out.

    If you like grainy IPAs, then this is the beer for you. Definitely an interesting beer.

    BTW I went to the brewery to try it, had it on tap and got the last bottle of the day.
