    I was just there tonight and they still had 5 or 6 bottles left. Shelves by the counter on the bottom/right corner

    In your opinion, it worth the price? If you've had it that is. I have refrained having not been overly impressed with their past offerings

    I just had 2015 for the first time and went back to pick up a couple of bottles. Definitely didn't come off as hot as the ABV suggests. Not like BCBS like some claim, but still has its own unique depth. Worth it for a once-in-awhile beer as it'll last a couple of hours. Not sure on 2016 yet. Seems like most of the good reviews here are for those aged at least a year. I say give it a shot and let me know what you think.

    Flying in to MSP today for a quick one night stay downtown. I am hoping to find some 3/22 Todd and Psuedo Sue. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    For Sue, as far as I know, you are going to have to go to Casanova's in Hudson, WI as TG doesn't distribute to Minnesota. Has that changed yet?

    Heritage has Xtra Citra for $5.49/4-pack. I think I have a new go-to beer.

    I had a sample on draft and didn't care too much for it. But then again I was on my 2nd glass of Darkness, so there's that

    I have only had it once on draft. It's certainly not as good as Pseudosue, but you can't beat the price point for what it is.

    The price point is only good if you like it. I would much rather pay $0.75 more a can for 1.5+ month old Furious or FL sue and get something that has some flavor and tastes better.

    If you know a place selling 4-packs of Sue for $6.24, sign me up. I would take fresh Xtra Citra over old Furious any day. It's a great blend of biscuity malt and immense citra.
