    Glad that worked out for you, I stumbled upon them when I kept asking for Old Raspy at a different liquor store and the beer guy finally suggested going there! I thought I was in craft beer heaven when I walked down the beer aisle…did you find any La Roja too?

    Freeman's is the only place I bother with in OKC. Every time I go there if anything new has come they tell me and are willing to get one out of the back if not on shelves yet. Really nice dudes.

    Does anyone know if Sierra Nevada Hoptimum will be hitting shelves in Oklahoma?

    I have to agree, the people are super helpful and the selection is fantastic. They are my favorite bottle shop.

    Not coming to OK. The broker that brings in SN, play the "I have to be nice to everyone" Game. They won't accept a shipment from ANY brewery if there isn't a minimum of 300 Cases. Well I can tell you, OK is not going to EVER get 300 cases of Hoptimum. These brokers need to understand this shit. Not every retailer needs it, not EVERY wholesaler needs 100 cases...etc etc. I wish they would change brokers..

    So I see that we're getting a bunch of great beer in Oklahoma next week! Any idea as to the exact day it may hit the shelves?

    Despite the fact we have to hear stuff like this literally every month it never stops stinging.

    Its along the same lines of the Utah Brewers Cooperative, with Redbud being the primary producer. It's just west of Film Row.

    Only if it's made from out of state wine or juice relabeled as an OK product.

    That is insane. They dont want consumers to be able to consume 10 ounces of beer at a brewery. Plenty of other states allow their breweries to serve huge samplers to visitors.
