    Couldnt agree with you more. Thankfully theres a fantastic beer distributor 10 min up the road in PA from where I am at. Can get fat heads, bells, dfh, ommegang, southern tier etc... despite having the stupid case law in pa, its not bad because its all great beer. Dont understand how wv gets shafted so bad for beer.

    I really wish Surly, Great Lakes, and New Glarus would find their way down here. So many beers I'd love to stock up on from them. If Cigar City could make their way north as well I'd be a very happy man.

    From what I understood, Russian River is only attainable in Philly, which unfortunately isn't close to me. I've never seen a RR bottle of anything on a shelf near me. As for FW, I guess technically I've seen it, but only Union Jack and maybe Double Jack. I was alluding to the Proprietor's Reserve series, again which I've never seen at any bottle shop near me.

    I had a thought about a couple breweries that I wish were in my distribution area, not even for the specialty release stuff, but just so I can get their normal stuff when ever I want. I keep seeing interesting Pipeworks stuff that I wish I could just go to the store and think about without trading, and I always want to try just about everything Prairie puts out.

    I think I speak for all of Maryland by saying Bells and Founders. I think the worst part is we are sandwiched between two states that get both.

    I do enjoy Stone. Don't get why is distributed in every state touching Wisconsin but not Wisconsin.
