    FFF updated their Facebook today to say its now available on tap and in bombers ($9) at the brewery. This site has some info on it as well. No reviews yet but I am really looking forward to trying this brew and will be picking some up tomorrow.

    On another note, I may be open to picking up a bottle or two for trade if anyone out of the area wants it. I don't have much spare cash but I can get a little extra for trade. BM me if interested

    I would hope so. They often have otherwise hard to find FFF bottles for sale on DLD.

    Hmmm...really excited about a FFF and Half Acre collaboration. However, a little bit apprehensive about a beer brewed with oysters. Not a big fan of eating them, but willing to give it a try.

    Really curious about this. Don't think i've had an oyster stout, so really wonder what it taste like. I may just drive from Downtown Chicago tonight to check this out.

    I'd be a bit surprised if they didn't also sell it at the Half Acre brewery, but so far no announcement on their end. Their other collaborations have been really solid so far. I'd love for them to do She-wolf again. Invasion was good too.

    I'm assuming this is a pub only thing?

    On Twitter Half Acre says, "only available at their brewery." HA is referring to FFF.

    I'm sure it has something to do with it being brewed in Munster and for Half Acre to sell it, they would have to buy it via a distributor and so the price would get marked up, etc etc etc.

    Bummer. Pretty sure She-wolf was sold at both places, but maybe it just on tap at FFF.

    I'd read an article on various stouts at one point indicating that an oyster stout doesn't actually have to contain oysters. But my expectation is that some animal had to die to create this beer. Would be curious to find out. I have a mild allergy to a lot of shellfish, but I have to imagine there's next to nothing in the brew itself. "Guaranteed to be 20% oyster" Cool let's age this for 5 years. :slight_smile:

    I was all geared up to make the trek to FFF today when I noticed that M&M isn't on their tap list. Its only bottled for now, tap to come soon they said, no specific date. I will be pissed if its sold on bottle by the time they get it on tap.
