    Shelf turds in the making. Would love to comment on a fresh IPA, but who knows. The one I bought in Hudson was not very good, but could of been a year old for all I know.

    I wouldn't bother, their IPAs I've tasted have been surpassingly mediocre. The stouts, on the other hand, are generally excellent, but the price on them is steep as well. It's really too bad they can't get things like BORIS or DORIS into 4 or 6 packs, or at the minimum, get bombers to a reasonable price point, as I'd be happy to buy them regularly then.

    2 cases for a store as popular as zipps? Gheez. I foresee one bottle limits at plenty of stores around here next week.

    I was in Duluth this weekend and stopped at Mount Royal Bottle shop. They are stocked pretty heavy with Abyss Rye and Congac, along with Butte 26 and 27, and Dissident. Also saw Surly 1349 Black Ale.

    Byerly's downtown had limit of 4 KBS per person. As soon as I picked up 4, 4 other people came in asking. Doubt they have any left. Happy hunting everyone!
