    I would think so, but it may depend where you will be and how much work you are willing to do and how far you are willing to go.

    Where abouts in the cities will you be?

    Downtown. I've got all day to drive around after lunch while the girlfriend shops. I may stop at the Total Wine in Burnsville (I believe) that is just off of 35. I usually end up in St Paul and go to Thomas or the Ale Jail. I see that I'm close to Haskell's

    Update:
    I took my 3 pack back for a refund, and grabbed another last night.
    Hopefully the odds are with me this one's good.
    Looks like it's been a small percentage of cans with quality issues.

    Word is that 1/10 date is the date they had issues with their canning line.

    Sorry it was the 1/13 canning not the 1/10. Not sure if all cans canned were flat but some of them were for sure. Can anyone with a flat beer confirm their canning date?

    Picked up two 4 packs yesterday with a white stamp date of 01/09/15. So far nothing but wonderful, delicious Abrasive.

    I heard it was the muffler bearings that needed to be replaced.

    Should be good now.

    There is also a Total Wine in Rosedale and one in the Richfield. I haven't been to those locations though...

    Are you insinuating that 17 is more than "a few"?

    I didn't go into the cooler when I was there but the shelf was plump full, haha.

    Had a 1/12/15 can today. Tasted right on point, but was certainly low on the carb. Not flat, but very little

    The two cans of 1/13/15 1 that I have had so far looked just like that. Tasted spot on and could smell it from three feet away but was carbless.

    Just popped a 1/13/15 can from Liquor Boy with extremely low carbonation. Disappointed
