    I was looking all over for it a week and a half ago or so - gave up, but ended up coming across a bunch at Winco while getting some groceries.

    I know NW Growlers in Sherwood had some of the 6/21 cans a few days back but not sure about now.

    Still waiting for a second drop in Boise. We got our first one I think 3 weeks ago.

    Your Winco is a lot cooler than mine.

    I haven't seen any cans of late either. Tin Bucket had it on tap a few days ago, but were out of cans. Current draft version is very, very good.

    I haven't seen it anywhere since getting home. Also remember that it shares a SKU with Overdub, so I wonder if some stores that haven't sold their stock of that didn't bother ordering 3-Way.

    Saw some at Johns Market last night. Seems to be very popular this year. Most places that get a shipment will sell out within a few days.

    I was told in Spokane to expect random cases through the distributor through July and possibly August to make it to Spokane. I still have 2 cans left now but it's not easy to stay away from them.

    Yep. That's the last place I saw some too.

    Last year our local Whole Foods always had a metric shit-ton of 3-Way available. This year they've had very little, and regular supermarkets (Safeway, Freddie's, Winco) have been much more reliable.

    I've never seen this year's 3-Way at my local Whole Foods or PCC. Both stores consistently had lots of it last year.

    Found some 6/14 cans today and think it's juicier than the 5/30 cans. Anyone else notice some variation yet.

    That was my take as well, but the difference was subtle enough that I figured it was probably some other factor that made me think that (freshness of the keg; the beer I drank prior to my glass of 3 way; current mood, etc.).

    Belmont Station had several cases this afternoon, canned 6/28. These are my first ones so I don't know how it compares to earlier cannings, but I'm enjoying them and I can be pretty hard on these NE IPAs. Solid beer.

    How can you tell the date?
    I bought and drank a single from Lifesource here in Salem last night.
    Wasn't impressed..then this is probably my least favorite style of IPA,
    Way too sweet i could barely finish the 16oz.

    Does anyone else get an upset stomach after drinking a neipa? I've had 3 way Fremont BS and some from Überbrew here in MT. While I love the style of beer and have enjoyed all of them I've had I get an upset stomach and kind of nauseous after drinking one.

    @drinkin-beeers : I've kinda noticed that myself; and I have a strong stomach. Made that remark about Instant Karma but thinking back it's not the only one that has kind of made me feel a little off. Nothing that persists too long but for a few minutes I feel funky.

    Maybe you have a yeast allergy.

    It sounds like they are going to make a bunch of this stuff, but slowly release it for awhile. Each beer retailer will continue to get a few cases at a time for awhile in the Seattle area.
