New to Ohio (2015)

I got yellow belly last week at the place in Cleveland heights and I can't remember the dam name at the moment lol. Wine spot? Yeah it's freaking expensive as hell but I would agree and say best peanut butter beer I have had but I mean really I have not had many What else is there besides sweet baby Jesus and willougjby really. I thought yellow belly taste like peanut brittle to me. it was 12 or 13 a bottle if I remember correct but the description on the label is spot on to the taste I would say and it does not taste artificial like a sweet baby Jesus say

 

Where's it at in Akron?

 

How much is Yellow Belly retailing for?

 

The wine Merchant in Findlay has a case of BA Total Eclipse.

 

12ish

 

Any word on if Founders 'Project PAM' has made its way to NE Ohio yet? Read in a thread on here that its not going to reach full footprint due to the limit of maple bourbon barrels.

 

Hasn't made it to OH yet, our distributor is normally a week or three behind. Should be here next week-ish. And, don't believe everything you read in threads here - Founders themselves say it will "be available across our distribution footprint":

I guess what I meant is that it wont be at every account and/or nearly as much... Not sure this will be shelf turding like Dissenter or even Blushing Monk for that matter. Could be wrong, but I could see production being slightly less limited.

 

i see whiskey rebellion is on at all the pies and pints in columbus.
anyone know if cans are also hitting town?

 

Brewery only last I heard grabbed a few cans last weekend

 

Great Lakes knowingly releasing infected "sour" BA Christmas Ale:

Love the language they are using to get around the I-word. But credit to them, at least they'll let people sample it before they buy if they wish and clearly posted contact information for questions/concerns. It's still kind of weird but seems like a fair warning.

 

That sucks about the Xmas ale was really looking forward to it

 

Stone Xocoveza hitting cincy today. Both Jungle Jims got multiple cases with no limit, $16.99 per.

 

Sounds like they are just letting people try it on tap and not selling actual bottles.

 

Yeah later this morning they released this update....

Not sure what prompted the change of heart...

 

Public reaction/outrage

 

They were providing free 5oz samples of the BA Christmas Ale. Crowlers only for those who were lined up in the AM to buy the bombers. They would not sell any of the brew in any forms. Got there around noon and had 3 samples. It's a nice sour with a bit of barrel and not much reg Christmas Ale coming through. The nose is nicely funked and I'm sure would really piss those off who were looking for a clean BA Christmas brew.

 

Looks like they didn't end up selling.

 

Update - won't be out in OH until mid to late December according to Founders rep. Something about the state delaying their label approval.
