    Yes, every 6 pack I've bought was less than a month old. Very fresh. There are a couple places in Broomfield I go.

    Sadly it's been sitting on the shelves at my go-to stores lately. Just went to pick up more and it's still the 071 release :slight_frown:

    This just in from Matt at the Beer Yard in Wayne PA...

    Lagunitas Sucks is back in 12oz Bottles. We just received a shipment today
    and have cases that need to find a home. This will be a year round product,
    but in true Lagunitas fashion it will not be here all the time.
    Cases run $42.92 + tax for 24/12oz Bottles. Let me know if you would like a
    case set aside for you.

    I thought for sure we in the Philly five county area would get old Sucks...luckily I was wrong. Got a six pack last night with a Juliand date of 146...so it was only two weeks old. Yes...fresh Sucks rocks.

    Had a 139 batch this week - awesome beer! They need to keep to the 6 packs without flooding the market with them so they stay fresh.

    Picked up an old 32oz and wasn't impressed. Picked up a fresh 6 pack and was very impressed. Night and day difference.

    Sucks demands freshness. That reminds me, I'll be passing by the brewery next week!

    I went back to the place last night where I got ~130ish and they had 071's... How does that happen? I'm not going to buy 071's.

    I've seen 71's at four places in the past week. I wonder if it's because of the distributer...

    The places I've been to in the Phx area that have the sixers are displaying the 048 batch. Still plenty of quarts sitting on the shelves gathering dust. So frustrating

    That was the date on mine as well. Sucks is a solid beer but I am just a bit underwhelmed by it, I gotta admit (especially when you factor in the hype). I definitely enjoy it but each time I have it, once I finish whatever I have on hand, I am good for a while again.

    A Little Sumpin' Sumpin' is one of my favorites of theirs, I enjoyed a Little Sumpin' Wild and I will definitely try Extra sometime.

    Just bought 3 sixers of 131. $8.99 was a good price. Not the cat piss beer I remember from a few years ago. Have to try another one.

    I hesitated as I thought they were old. Thought 32oz was the only release. The date stamp was different that the one a few years back so I bought them. Not bad at all but again not what I remember.

    Enjoy

    I kinda like the 32oz bottles. The are great for sharing and I also use them for bottling home brew. The price was hard to beat: $5.99 in upstate NY.

    I was able to score some 131's at Superior last night. 71's are all over the place still.
