    Thanks. There is one left now. I have noticed the prices have come down since they opened. There are still some rip offs in there but also some good deals.

    Am I the only one who didn't think this was all that great?

    I'm not even that big of a fan of peach and I loved it, I did think it was slightly better on draft but much less pretty. Stone fruit in lambic style beers is as good as it gets in my book. Some of the Allagash wilds can be a little acetic for my taste but their series aged in stainless(Nancy and Farm to Face) are pretty close to perfect for me.

    Might still be one left in the Warehouse place next door to the Framingham Whole Foods. Ask their awesome beer guy who looks like Zach Galifianakis where to find it.

    I was expecting more peach, but it certainly didn't disappoint.

    I liked it last year, but not enough to go back to the well at $15/375ml.

    I guess I got a deal. Got the last one at the store near my apartment for $7.75. They must have priced it wrong.

    I've been calling shops in Avon, West Hartford, and Farmington every week. Nothing yet. They keep saying a couple weeks. Something tells me distro just gave them Golden Brett instead. Hopefully I am wrong.

    Only the biggest retailers in WMass had Farm to Face. Otherwise Golden Brett showed up a few weeks ago and is still around a little bit. Haven't seen F2F at the locals yet, so your idea makes sense to me.

    Farm to Face hit after Golden Brett in every market, so I doubt it came instead.

    Yeah I had last year's version and it blew my mind. Need to track some more down.

    I want to cellar one of these for a while. Any thoughts on this idea?

    I was able to find 2 bottles in southern Delaware yesterday.

    I have one leftover from last year that I plan to open at the same time as the bottle I got this year and will report back.

    I did this and thought it was better fresh. Gonna drink my other 2 bottles soon. The year old bottle was much more tart, but had lost a lot of the peach, which is what I liked most about this beer.
