    I hope that Cherry Stout is released soon.

    I can give you some Road Slush if you just want to buy some Belgian Red and blend your own.

    Just here to express my love for New Glarus. Was born and raised in Wisco. Spotted Cow was the beer that turned me on to "craft" beer or whatever it was called back then in the early aughts. Live out east now but make it back to Milwaukee twice a year to visit family. I'm always sure to fill my belly and checked luggage with New Glarus before I leave. I've yet to encounter another brewery that nails such a diverse range of styles. Such a treat to walk into Downer Avenue Wine & Spirits and pick up my fill without have to deal with lines, needless hype, or ridiculous costs. There's good beer just about everywhere these days but for my money & palate New Glarus is the best. Truly a taste of home. Enigma, Bubbler, and the 2017 Berliner Weiss were tasting especially nice this visit. Cheers!

    Any word on if rasp/tart 4/packs will hit this week? Will be in state next weekend and hoping to grab a couple. Anything more firm than middle of the month?

    Tuesday is the tell tale sign since the NG distro would hit stores.

    Are you going to be in or near Milwaukee? I'll get the skinny from my sales rep on Wednesday.

    Was told by a NG rep that they'll be hitting this week. Limited quantities for the first round, and going exclusively to 4 packs until the holiday season

    Yeah, the way I understood it was that they'd be eliminating the 750s for a while and going to 4 packs exclusively until the holidays. So they'll be dropping a batch this week, with more regular supply in the coming months as kind of a "trial run" for the 4 pack format.

    Thanksgiving/Christmas/Hanukkah/New Year's

    I don't think so. He's only got two big toes.
