Notable Releases - DC/NOVA/MD

Any nimble giant sightings, or info on when it hits distro in these parts?

 

They got 6 bottles total and were 1per, so that is not correct.

 

Good to know. The lady on the phone said "We only got 6 bottles, and someone bought them already," which kinda suggested one person got them all. Guess I read too much into her phrasing.

 

Stickee Monkee at schneider's. Only 1 case.

 

Weird release on this one. I got mine from WF P on Friday. WF FB said they were getting it today and, as noted above, sold out quickly. Schneiders told me "weren't getting any Stickee Monkee" when I called on Friday. So tough to really say.

 

I remember finding this more easily last year, can't tell if the numbers distributed here are down or if I was just lucky back then.

 

I posted last Friday that it was at P St WF, I only bought one bottle, there were at least 10 left

 

Yeah. Just hoping it's going to make it elsewhere

 

Seems like VA always gets FW before DC, but no sightings in VA yet.

 

Has anyone seen any cans of Manor Hill Grisette in DC proper lately? I've had it on tap a couple of times lately and it's really quite the excellent summer beer.

 

Oh my friend, do not ever make presumptions about when DC ever gets anything from FW. Sometimes we get beers the week after they hit California, sometimes it's 3 months later, and sometimes they never show up at all.

 

Thanks for the heads up on this. I was able to snag *one* and one only around 830p on Friday. There were a handful still left.

 

Not sure about the DC area but where I am in northeastern PA my local distributor is not getting any for about another week and he is only getting one case, he said its going to be an extremely limited release.

 

What part of PA?

 

the Poconos

 

Originally from Wilkes-Barre area - they get 0 good beers there.

 

Agreed. I'd try yes! Organic and Glen's, I know both have carried manor Hill cans lately.

 

Yeah its pretty hit or miss, mostly miss, up there in coal country but there is actually a bottleshop and bar now in Exeter that gets some pretty good stuff ... even has hill farmstead on draft once in a blue moon

 

I think I've seen it at WF P St recently; don't know if it's still there.

 

Yeah Ive seen Grisette and the MH IPA at WFP recently as well
