    The store I go to told me this Wednesday or next, without me asking about it. I told him to tell someone that likes the beer, I definitely don't.

    4th Street Bar in Columbus is tapping a keg of Hopslam at 2pm on Sunday. They are claiming that they are releasing it a day early.

    It shipped to Ohio distributors Monday. Could be hitting shelves as early as today or tomorrow.

    But I heard they changed the recipie, its infected, and Bells burnt down.

    Cool story, bro. I have never seen you post anything positive. You just bitch about things not meeting your absurd expectations and frequently complain about MI beers and breweries. You don't like them, don't come to them. You don't like hopslam, don't post in the thread.

    Oh, this has to be my favorite. It does everything I want my DIPA's to do, and then some surprises too! I switched my review from 4.75 to 5.00 finally. Going against my general position that nothing is perfect. Bull! I still like the sentiment, but I'll make a rare exception in this case. So deserving, don't you think? How I wish, oh I wish, this were always available.

    Just having my first of the season...maybe I'm biased just now...

    I would love to see all the posts where I am "frequently complaining" about MI beer and breweries. I complain about them so much that I drive to Michigan from Chicago multiple times a year just to visit MI breweries and drink their great beer.

    Champanes in Warren sold 120 cases in 2.5 hours today. Crazy.
