    Shame Alarmist is closing. Always liked Crispy Boy and LeJus. Was at my local Binny's looking to grab a final 4pk of LeJus and the beer dept guy I usually talk to said they hadn't gotten any anything from them in a while.

    When they did get some it was several months old and didn't move all that quick.
