    Yes the distro is very weird with the Nobel Star Series. I landed in Roseville maybe 3+ weeks ago, and still hasn't come to Shoreview which is minutes away? What is everyone's favorite so far? I would have to go Cypress as my #1 pick.

    I get a week or so, but not a month or so.

    For me it would have to be the Framboise or the Black Forest Cherry. Basically the fruited ones, the others weren't exactly my thing.

    I had no trouble finding any of them here in Northwest WI, up until DoA. That one just didn't come here for some reason. Still haven't seen Cypress Blanc locally either.

    France 44 has both of them right now, so that maybe an option down the road.

    Any word about the Sue 4 packs? Haven't seen any posts from the Nova.

    I don't believe that information was accurate. According to the Twitters today, the brew hub delivery didn't show up until today and there was only mention of Dorothy.

    Cypress Blanc is my favorite with Star of the North in 2nd, Dawn of Aurora not a too distant 3rd. The fruit ones were also good with the Brunette my least favorite.

    This didn't happen but for what it's worth, I was told the same thing when I was in there Sunday. When I called today (I know, I know) they said they expected Zee and 1492 tomorrow and sue 4 packs by the end of next week. I was also told the Sue 4 packs would run in the "$10-12 range". I really hope that part's true :slight_smile:

    I was really impressed with cypress blanc, but black forest cherry is my favorite so far. As good as cherry bu from De garde imo. Really excited for those peaches though!

    Lunker still available at the Taproom, not sure how much they had left, but around 6-8 cases on the floor behind the bar, forgot when Chelsea mentioned they would be seeing distro, however, she said less quantity than initially expected because Thursday they sold 1/3 of what they bottled

    France 44 is having a cellar sale tomorrow at 9am. Heard they're pulling 1200+ items out of the cellar.

    I second this question. Will there be a line before 8?

    Waconia Brewing Gin Barrel-Age Honey Ale $12.99 (it could of been $11.99) for 750ml bottle. Seen at Haskell's in Chanhassen. I paid $15 at the brewery. I think it is a pretty good beer especially now it has several weeks out of the barrel to mellow out. No longer available on-tap but bottles are available at the brewery.
