    I got an early April batch (forget exact date) down in Fairfield County but it's been dry since then although have seen it on tap both in bars and at brewery.

    I've seen it in bars on draft too. Specifically was trying to grab a couple cans for a friend. I agree it's really not worth hunting, but the sporadic nature of the canning is interesting. I wonder to what extent it's intentional vs. haphazard.

    I don't think its intentional... I think its a horrible combination of the distributer playing games and NEBCo underestimating how popular they would become (the Gandhi scandal obviously was unforseen, and that boosted their popularity).

    It made at least some sort of drop in the Hartford area today. My usual place in Rocky Hill received one 5/28-dated case and are selling it with a 2 can/person limit.
    My fridge is looking pretty good right now with several Headies and a couple G-Bots, interwoven with some Sierra Nevadas.

    Amity got some last Monday 6/1. they posted on Beer Menus (dumb)

    at this point, as far as cans go, either you're on a list at your local shop or you're taking some one else's allotment. (we can argue about this if you want).

    go to the brewery when they reopen. you can get a few growlers and be happy. that's what I do.
