    This is good news, heard rumors but found out today that Alesmith is indeed coming to CT. Estimated time frame is about 2 months. Cheers.

    Really like their IPA and it looks like they may have started to date their bottles. Great news!

    Massachusetts rarely gets the ipa, I see Yulesmith more often but its never fresh.

    if you can get over that it comes in 750ml, speedway stout may effectively halt all your other RIS purchases.

    Wow, I did not know they weren't in CT. yet. Isn't distro geography weird sometimes?
    Yeah the 750's and bombers can be pricey, but man, is their line up pretty darn solid. Enjoy!

    I love Alesmith. Have had their IPA several times, along with Horny Devil, Speedway Stout, and the winter Yulesmith. Tremendous brewer, so I hope this is accurate as it would be a coup for CT.

    If they do indeed start dating their IPA, I'll definitely be drinking it with some regularity. Anyone know if they'll be sending any draft as well? I can't remember ever seeing their beers on tap in NY/MA...

    Always letting the proverbial cat out of the bag. I knew there was a reason I buy my beer from you. :wink:

    They are now dating their bottles. AleSmith arrived in Rhode Island two weeks ago. I picked up a couple IPAs yesterday - bottled 4/18/13 and stamped right on the neck of the bottle!

    From your lips to God's ears. How definitive is it that they are coming in? Anyone from out-of-state besides Alesmith along coming in that you know of?
