    seriously, this. i looked everywhere and came up with nothing. it's the only JP regular release i haven't had, and from what i've heard it's either their best or comes close.

    From talking to some guys from Binny's it sounds like we will be seeing less and less of JP in Chicagoland. Sounds like they recently switched distributors and supply has slowed down to a trickle...

    Actually, the issue has been on the JP side. They are in the process of expanding and moving some production to a new facility. Once that happens, there will be more beer available, but it will take some time for everything to come on line.

    It's the best regular release IMO, and I thought this year's was the best it has ever tasted.

    Can't wait for the JP move to finish in Dexter so they can focus on the Royal Oak Pub.

    I emailed Ron and he said they are hoping to have another Perseguidor at the end of the year and a Bier de Mars Grand Reserve this spring!

    Thats why you go up to Mission Point. I went for LR Grand Reserve and we walked in, no line, sat down, asked for our bottles to be set aside, had lunch and walked out without issue

    I asked also another topic, but have you guys any info why that regular BdM is more limited than others?
