    Looks like the Alpine/ Green Flash Pure Hoppiness six packs just started hitting stores around the country a little early. Not here in Fort Collins as of today. Post when you see it/ where.

    I did as well. But it hit stores in California and Texas yesterday. Not sure about other states.

    I looked up #purehoppiness on instagram and saw a bunch of people post that they got it/ liquor stores selling it.

    Anything new on this? I see it hit nor cal. Wondering if it's at distributor yet. The 15th seems odd since that's Sunday

    Yeah. Crazy price. But still just over $3 a beer for something hard to get. I may go back and get one. Holiday treat. Great beer though, had it a couple years ago at the alpine brewing.

    We just finished a half barrel of Pure Hoppiness. Delicious beer. Still plenty available in kegs from what I can tell so would imagine you'll be seeing it around.

    ^ What this guy said. Get yourself a pint instead of buying a 6pack. Had it at Falling Rock last month. It was very good but not noticeably better than other 6packs that are $15. And that's still too expensive IMO. A lot of great CO ipas that are half the price. Let's keep our hard earned dollars local!

    I had the same feeling until I saw a response from Alpine that said their bombers of Pure Hoppiness have always been $5.99 and this is basically a better deal.

    Agreed. And if you do the math Pliny is a little more when it comes to $/oz
