    That liquor store in Porter Square had what looked to be about 5-6 cases on the floor.

    Well, without sounding like an @ss - Ithica is in NY - hence why it was released there first. I have yet to see it's face up here in Brattleboro, VT. Not even in Greenfield, Ma yet either.

    Been AWOL at my local stores since the beginning of the summer. Redstone recently got some, but had a one six pack per person limit, so it doesn't seem like much has rolled in up to now. I'm jonesin' for some good ipa since I haven't brewed in a few months.

    In some respects I'm glad there's not a glut of FP around here. Really falls off a cliff into an onion bomb after 4 or 5 weeks IMO. The dribs & drabs ensure that FP fans get it moving off shelves instead of backlog rotting at some distro's warehouse.

    I think most of the better stores around Boston have it whenever it's shipped here.

    You know its been a long time since any stores got any when Burlington Wine and Spirits doesn't even have it on the shelf anymore. lol. Those best before Apr. six packs were there all summer. Now if someone would just get suckered into buying that 12 pack of last year's Widmer Flaconer's Flight IPA, maybe they might get some new ones in.

    I have never seen any Ithaca products in the Brattleboro area or Southern VT for that matter.. Greenfield & other cities in Mass yes.

    Finally just found some fresh FP at Marty's in newton. Looked like 3 new cases. Almost couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the date on it...since I associate Marty's with dusty IPAs.
