    I know we get Night Owl but does the Mid Atlantic area get Great Pumpkin?

    No, only Night Owl sees distribution this way. Dark O' the Moon also has not seen distribution (I believe) this way. The Great Pumpkin is made in far less quantity than Night Owl. Try to establish a trading partner (not just mine) as this beer is not easy to get your hands on.

    I saw Dark O' the Moon on draft in one or two places in Philly last year, but that's it.

    Pittsburgh seems to get a pretty steady stream of Elysian, both regulars and special releases. Will keep an eye out.

    Jean Bonnet Tavern in Bedford, PA had it on tap as of Saturday evening.

    Actually that may have been their standard Pumpkin Ale. My mistake.

    Wardell Pub in Phillipsburg,NJ has it.

    Kinda in the middle of nowhere, but they have it now.

    They've got some other goodies as well.

    Ive been told by 3 different establishments in the central PA area that it is coming. The initial estimated delivery was last week but it was delayed.

    This is promising in that I heard that Elysian would be doing a variety pack which included Great Pumpkin.

    Great Pumpkin or Night Owl. Night Owl did just turn up.

    yea I would think if Md got this you would have to think Pa would as well.

    Is night owl in bombers? Not being a turd and purposely answering a question with a question here. I just made it a point when I inquired at some places as to whether they were receiving the great pumpkin in addition to the breweries other pumpkin ales and it was confirmed that not only is it on its way but it is bombers.

    Night Owl used to be in bombers. This year it is in twelve ounce bottles and I would assume in bombers as well. Great if Great Pumpkin is on its way. This would surprise me a bit given its yield and limits locally.

    From what I gather, if the 4pk sampler is going there, than Great Pumpkin is part of it (along with Dark O the Moon, Night Owl, and I think Hansel & Gretel, their pumpkin pilsner bottled for the first time).

    Dark of the Moon and Great Pumpkin are headed this way in draft and bombers. There will also be a pumpkin sampler with Night Owl, Dark of the Moon, Great Pumpkin and Hansel and Gretel (ginger spiced pumpkin?)

    Yeah I've been wondering if we're going to get a whiff of any of their Pumpkin offerings here. Their stuff has been very prevalent around town this year, particularly Robinson Market District.

    The Giant Eagle on Route 8 in Pittsburgh has Dark O' the Moon, The great Pumpkin, and 6 packs of Night Owl. It came in on Thursday.

    Ooo, good looking out sir. Do you mean the one actually down in the city down near Shadyside on 8, or a little North like in the Glenshaw/Allison Park area? So many of the bloody things and I don't know which all are equipped with beer.
