    Dear lord, tell me it's true, tell me it's true! This would be amusing.

    That is correct. World Class takes care of most of Indiana, but Indiana Beer, now called Indiana Beverage bought out the Northern Indiana distribution area, and they are now the distributors of Bell's in N. IN.

    I spoke with a local liquor store today. The guy said that they did not want Hopslam an BN to come out the same week. Hopslam this week, BN next. Hope he's right.

    Thank-you. And what I heard is they received 20 cases.

    For anyone still looking in metro detroit; there were some bottles on the shelf at ml spirits in Birmingham as of about 7 pm tonight. No limit except for the one you may impose on yourself at $10 a bottle. Also, per their Facebook, 8 Degrees of Plato in Ferndale will be doing their release this Sunday morning...11 am if I'm not mistaken.

    ...which would explain why we get Hopsoulution instead of Oracle. :slight_frown:

    That is actually, the reason why you got Hopsolution.

    Just snagged a single bottle for $6.50 in the western suburbs of Chicago. They weren't on the shelf, so no clue what kind of stock they have/had.

    Didn't take the time to read the whole thread but I'm seeing a 1 case limit here in some posts... the store I got it at (and the only place in my area that has it) had a 1 bottle per person limit! And I live in MI! They are normal 12 oz bottles, damn it! To put that into perspective, they limited Hopslam to 1 case per person, but I'm not an IPA fan so I haven't tried that but it seems to have even more hype. Haven't tried the Black Note yet as I'm getting over a cold and I want to fully taste it at $2+ an ounce... I'm hoping it lives up to the hype.

    It was 6 something a bottle, and my drunk ass fails at math right now... sorry! Should be 50 cents an ounce because I reversed the math; thanks for pointing out my fail!
