    Gonna be in Cbus on Wednesday and thursday. Staying downtown, looking to get a growler of bodhi or creeper and maybe hit up a bottle shop. Is beermenus pretty reliable there?

    Seems to be fairly up to date. If you are downtown check Pace and High carry out. They just tapped a keg not long ago. Usually I dont have a problem finding it between Weilands, and the Daily Growler too.

    Wes nailed but just wanted to let you know that yesterday Savor Pint (near Weilands) had Creeper on tap. No growler fills but in case you're looking for a place to try it.

    Creeper might be tough, but Bodhi should be no problem. Most places using Beermenus keep it up to date. If you're looking for a good bottle shop with a growler station, Weiland's will be your best bet. They almost always have Bodhi available.

    Was there for the Konkey Dong release and it went much faster than South of Eleven even! Seems like more and more people are showing up each time. They sold out of cans before 3:30. I think they really need to start having limits. Saw multiple people leaving with 3+ cases while people showing up a bit after 3PM were shut out.

    Love the fact that the draft selection is always so different. Mom Jeans (French Roast Coffee Version) may have been the best coffee beer I've ever had! Still can't get over it. Also had Fruit Saxx (Mango & Passionfruit) and this was easily one of the best fruit Gose I've tasted. Was kind of like a Sour version of Avery Lilikoi Kepolo! Awesome stuff! Growler prices and pint prices are also ridiculously reasonable. Me and my buddies will be back for the Roller Blabe release for sure!

    Anyone know if Hoof Hearted will ever make distro in Toledo area? I really wish I still lived in Cincy every time the things I want come out down there.

    If anybody is interested in some Hoof stuff (Musk, South of Eleven, Konkey Dong) let me know PM if you will be at FatHeads today (Taproom off Sheldon). I should be there today and would be willing to give up a few cans for what I paid to someone who has not had a chance to try them out yet.

    Good man!

    I have liked all of their beers, but Konkey Dong is the stand out to me. A buddy picked up a four pack for me and I liked it so much that I setup a trade for another four pack. I'm going to try to make it down to the Roller Blabe release.

    Just a FYI... I *might* be at the other FH's instead, still waiting for confirmation (Great Northern). Will advise those who PM'd me and were interested.

    Guys, is it safe to assume HH cans are only at the brewery on can release days (ie no package stores for retail)? I will be in town next week (Creston/Wadsworth area), and will miss the RB can release as I am hitting the Browns game. Would love to give HH a try, and will very likely have fresh Other Half cans in tow to swap. I'll put up a POST for IP for later next week, but any help here would be appreciated.

    Some of the cbus guys can comment on stores, but it sounds like some should have HH cans...might not be while you're in town though. However, people have said there are cans AT the Browns stadium so you should be able to get some there.

    Cans typically hit CBus the day after the release. Blabe seemed to be a smaller batch than others and sold out quicker, but it still hit a few stores around here. A few bars also got cans (Pies and Pints Short North, Daily Growler got cans and kegs since it's a collab with them). HH lists the stores they self-distro to on their website.

    I'll probably be at release and love Other Half, so if you strike out, PM me.

    I know Super Awesome Arcade (the collab) got quite a bit of Konky Dong for the bar. So if you really want a can to enjoy I would head there and check the new place. Make sure to grab some yellow brick pizza.

    Thanks for the info fellas, appreciate it. Will see what I can do to head down that way to give it a try. Good stuff they have it at the game too!

    ^ Yeah good beer, and wonder what the bottle limits will be around town. Hop Stalker is better though, should be seeing that soon.
