    Saw Threes Brewing at Whole Foods; have they shipped to CT before? Read good things about the brewery; grabbed the Pils, Vliet. Will report back this afternoon.

    Rothaus pils 6 packs at Big Gary’s in Putnam, that was a pleasant surprise. The $16.99 price tag was not so pleasant, but oh well

    Threes arrived maybe a year ago? Speaking for New Haven County though.

    On another note, anyone know what's up with Surly? Was that a one time drop?

    Also, been a long, long time since any Night Shift drops. They are long gone from shelves in my area.

    I was looking forward to Wormtown, guess that idea got put on the back burner....

    Haven't seen any Zero Gravity lately as well....

    Good to see Counter Weight finally date stamping their cans on the bottom now.

    I think there has been just 2 small Proclamation drops so far.

    Was kinda bummed Cigar City White Oak finally showed up with way over 60 days on it, when everything else from them arrives pretty fresh. Passed.

    Grey Sail Captain's Daughter consistently arrives really fresh, love that beer. Picked up a week old bottle of Maine Another One as a treat, one of my all time favs.

    That Jacks Abby 'Cut through the Haze' variety pack is a nice change of pace as well.

    Been seeing more places selling New England Sea Hag at $8.99. Now Total Wine in Milford is selling a 6pk. for $7.99. Great deals for a great beer.

    Pumpkin beers are here now, brace yourselves....lol.

    Cheers All...

    Totally forgot to mention this, but I found some dry hopped post shift at Kindred in Shelton about a week ago. Canned 7/11. Just as good as I remember.

    I finally found Be Hoppy a couple weeks ago canned 7/27. Didn't see anything else here in S.CT. yet. How was the Be Hoppiest? I remember liking Be Hoppy more years ago.

    Cheers

    A brewery local to Finger Lakes or Clifton Park. You'll be able to tell if it's a distro can by it having a blue opener tab
