    When was the last time regular sue was even bottled in 22's? I know there was one before DDH but that's been quite a while now no? I know 12oz's were FL and ancient by now.

    I'll stick with my TG and not trading :wink:

    Does TG date their beers? I saw a date on the cans, but not on the bottles.

    It can be really hard to read sometimes.

    Anyone know of some stores in Western Iowa that carry toppling Goliath bombers? Charlie's in Sioux City is the only one I have found so far. They don't have very many either.

    And they rub off pretty easy, especially when wet.

    The amount of time I wish I could get back from straining my eyes to see where it is only to find some ink on my fingers.

    @fondyball20 hopefully you are just joking :slight_smile: We go to great lengths to ensure beer is enjoyed fresh. The TG beer we sold was canned for us, and delivered soon after to everyone who wanted them. All of us here care about enjoying beer fresh and we go to great lengths to get hard to find fresh beer available to you regardless of where you are.

    Please let me know if you had a experience with us that makes you believe otherwise. If we need to correct anything on our side we will act on it immediately and let you know what we changed.

    I was just joking... there is a lot of Dorothy and G Nugget sitting on the shelves around here

    Yep - Charlie's and the 3 Hyvee's are where I get mine when I am in town.

    I don't think the 3 hy-vee in Sioux city have any of the TG bombers. I'm going to check again tomorrow to see what I can find. I see that some of the Hy-vee locations have growler stations now too, but not SC.

    The Rue The Crown bottles have a TGB seal on top, presumably to make re-waxing harder. I'll be curious if they keep that up with larger releases in the future.

    Wicked Weed did this with Dark Arts and thought it was the coolest thing. I wish more breweries would utilize this.

    I'd be really surprised if it didn't make it to Saturday.

    Last batch made it to the next day. But we arrived at noon on Saturday and there were only 18 cases left, so we got shut out.

    Charlie's is where I get mine, they usually do a 1-bottle limit on the more limited releases. I have seen Light Speed at HyVee on Gordon Dr.

    With the increased King Sue frequency, releases seem a lot less insane lately. It will go quick, but I'd bet money on getting it Saturday.
