    Hey guys- this timing was my call. This one will be one where you can come at open and get cans. We only could get the canning line for that Wednesday and we dont have ability yet to can/label and release same day. So i figured with it being thanksgiving weekend and lots of people spending money on stouts the demand wont be insane and you should be leisurely be able to grab them all weekend. This SB run will also be hitting distro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Are growlers available for all current draft offerings? Frame & Canvas and Ghost Tropic, in particular. I will be in the city on Saturday and was hoping to hit up FR. I assume there are no cans available. Thanks!

    has distribution expanded out into the NW burbs recently? I (excitedly) saw some SB cans at a very unlikely place out here, hoping it just wasn't a fluke

    Are cans of Ghost Tropic still publicly available if I stop in tonight? Or do I need a secret password / handshake?

    From what I’ve heard, the only way to get it is to shout Go Blue at the top of your lungs once you walk in the front door. I could be wrong, but you better try it just in case...

    Why is Face for Radio “ugly”?

    I still can’t figure out or really have the want to post pics in here but i know some follow my Instagram KrajDoesBeer and there is a great pic of this Face for Radio! Lol....

    FYI more Major Label one offs may come on this week...... :wink: I’m in at 4- it won’t be on before that so don’t go crazy! I will report back..

    We also have an Oatmeal Cookie Brown Ale coming on today/tomorrow as well...

    One of my favs is back on- Shamms... Bc it’s got legit flavor and it’s only 4%- first run did so well we had to do it again!
