    Has anyone heard when this year's Beer Camp will/may hit in the Twin Cities?
    Thanks in advance!

    I'm thinking soon. I thought I remember hearing August and I think it's in some markets already.

    It's around up here, but seems pricey. Does anyone have a price check on it yet?

    Thought I remember hearing it's close to $20. Most of the beers are in the double/imperial range though I believe.

    There was a bunch of it in Rochester as of Saturday, $19.99. A little pricey, but I will probably pick up a 12 pack soon.

    sounds interesting, might have to grab singles of the red, stout and ipa.

    Might be hard to find singles. Last year they came and went as 12 packs very fast, and I don't think I ever saw them split. Someone feel free to correct me

    It's hit Iowa, I only saw two cases at one store though. I grabbed one. The Oatmeal is nice, and the Imperial Red I really liked. Those were the two I tried so far.

    It's up here at 21.99, I guess I'll bite the bullet. I'm too curious.

    We will have the first round on tap (all 4 plus pale ale and torpedo) at Longfellow Grill on Labor day, as well as pouring Brux by the glass so you don't have to break in to your stash to try it now.

    ^^ that's awesome! Is it just Labor Day that LFG will have those on tap or all weekend?

    On Thursday we got in a couple cases of the 2012 Beer Camp at MGM in Vadnais Heights. Running 'em for $21.99 (yeah, yeah... it's a bit steep, but I don't set prices here...). I grabbed one last night and sampled the goods after work, so as of 4pm we've got three 12-packs left on the rail for those in search of one.
