    Ah, true true.

    I’m still going into work (physically, not remotely) Mon - Fri, so life hasn’t changed much for me in terms of when I drink.


    Redstone got the 4 packs of 16 oz. cans in too for what it’s worth.

    my local shop (Wilmington VT) just got 12 cases of Fiddlehead. Cannot beat the price ($12) or the beer.

    Picked-up a case yesterday, for about $90, never had before. Getting a skunky smell, & not loving the taste. Anyone else?

    No problem with the case I purchased, beer canned less than a week ago though. What date was on yours? Price seems a bit steep, going for under $13 a four pack in VT.

    I got a 4 pack of the 19.2oz cans in VT on Thursday for $12. 3/25 date. Tastes great, exactly as expected from all my previous experience of the brew on tap.

    I got a 4-pack of 16 oz cans with my dinner to go from Brewers Fork on Friday night. 4/3 batch. Tastes just like the many (too many?!?) times I've had it on tap.

    4/6 batch in cans is awesome. It for sure has a dank, weed nose to it no doubt, and that may not be your thing. But it is rocking delicious

    Was psyched to see 4 packs of this in NH finally. Had heard so many good things about the beer and low price point. 4/4 can date and 4 packs are $15.75. It's pretty good but not $16/4 pack good.

    Amazing what a difference price makes (I feel the same way as you). At $10 / four pack (even pints and not the 19.2 cans) I'd keep this in the fridge always; at $15, not so much

    So does anybody know of a place that's closest to NJ that this was distributed to? I absolutely love Fiddlehead IPA and I would like to have it besides anytime i go snowboarding up in the VT mountaina

    They distribute only in Vermont, New York, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. If you go to their website there's a beer finder you can put your zip code into to find the closest location that they have accounts they deliver Fiddlehead IPA to. It lists a few places out in Long Island, Brooklyn, and New York that would be the closest to NJ.

    Interesting - I'm reading the notes on the 16oz can I purchased locally, at a beer store:

    "#FERNBELIEVER - From killer concerts to can't-miss cultural affairs, this IPA has been brewed for unforgettable gatherings just like the one you're experiencing now. They're the only places you'll find these very special cans......."

    Once people are again able to attend concerts and cultural events, do these cans disappear from my local beer store? Hope not...
