    I saw this on their website about a month back. Man, delicious on tap, couldn't imagine what it would be like to drink in my house. I ain't believing it until I see it.

    I've usually managed to get a growler of it to go with the Easter ham, but sometimes that's been a challenge. Having it around in bottles would make things a lot easier.

    Super Buy Rite in Jersey City had a case of bottles. Picked up 4. Never had it before and really excited to try it.

    It's in NYS. I just picked up a few at Cable Beverages in Nanuet, and they said it just came in yesterday.

    Michael, how is this beer priced near you?

    Cheers!

    It depends on where you go. These were $4.29, but my local mom and pop place in NJ sells Schlenkerla for $4.99.

    $4.29 is a great price. Once again the NYC metro area (which is generally one of the most expensive places in the US) has more reasonable beer prices.

    Sucks for me.:slight_frown:

    Cheers!

    It's probably cheaper if you buy it by the case, though :wink:.

    LOL!

    Yeah, it is likely less expensive on a per bottle basis but a case of Schlenkerla will total out to a 'pretty penny'.

    Cheers!
