    I have been trying to pick this up at the Canal's in Lawrenceville but the last two times I have been there over the past week they didn't have any Carton beer. :slight_frown:

    Has anyone had luck finding it anyplace other than their brewery in Somerset, Middlesex, or Mercer counties?

    Thanks for any leads....

    It went crazy fast in north jersey. Id imagine it was the same elsewhere. Hit shelves almost 2 weeks ago too. Id say your chances are probably slim.

    Looks like a trip to the Atlantic Highlands is in order...closer than going down to Point Pleasant.

    Worth the trip. Get some chicken tinga from the Copper Canyon when you're there.

    Freebridge wine and spirits in PBurg usually gets Carton. They recently had Epitome but limited it to 1 can a person b/c they got so little.

    Cans were released on black Friday. Most stores should have sold out already. Augie was quoted today saying there are still cans at the brewery. Still on draft a few places according to beermenus.com

    I was at the brewery on Sunday and there were still a bunch left when they closed at 5. Its worth taking a drive over.

    I got a 4 pack at Joe Canals in Woodbridge on Black Friday for $15. No idea if there's any left. Your best bet is probably getting it on tap (Tapastre Somerville)or when a store gets some for growlers. Good stuff!

    They price hike like CRAZY!!!! They got enough to sell 4 packs. I like how it says 077xx is 16oz. 4 Pack Cans for $11.99 on beermenus.com, but if you go there they are $15.99

    Thank you for this post! You have pointed out an error in the store. The price was improperly posted as 14.99 and has been adjusted to 11.99!! We want to be your favorite Carton store. Anytime you see something that doesn't look right, please let me know.
    I have 077xx and BDG on draft right now and will buy anyone (over 21) that mentions this thread a Carton beer.

    I apologize but I am having trouble understanding this post. So the numerous times I've been to Freebridge Wine and Spirits and purchased Carton 077xx for $14.99 I payed more for it because it was an error in the store?

    Yes it was an error and it has been changed. I'm not making an excuse but it really is a lot of work pricing every bottle and four pack every week. I make mistakes every now and then. Any time you see what you think is an error, let me know. I'll look into it. Thanks again. And I'd like to make it up to you. If you bought 3-four packs, it looks like I owe you one. Come by tomorrow, they will be fresh off the canning line from today. Tricia
