    haven't heard anything about it. Just checked their FB page...will monitor. I need to pick up some homebrewing stuff in Albany anyway so may head over this weekend to see what they say.
    Looking forward to some tasting-touring in Michigan for National Homebrew Conference this year. It's one region i wish we got more beers from.

    if you find a sucks or founders harvest this time of year on the east coast you're probably better off just using it as decoration at this point

    Stop by The Beer Diviner if you haven't already. Interesting place.

    I'd guess La Fin Du Monde is the easiest on the list in terms of nationwide availability 365 days a year.

    Having said that, there are 60 of the top 250 that are easy to find in Chicago when they are/were out.

    Nope. Well found a place that is a four hour round trip and one of the worlds greatest bars thrown in.

    So the correct answer would be #29, which is readily available year round. Even the great Breakfast Stout disappears after a while.

    Will have to keep my eyes peeled for Rochefort 10, it may be available here but I never thought twice about it. Must do a better job keeping the top beers in focus. Looking at ratings Rochefort 10 falls into my divisive beer category getting almost as many 1's as 5's.

    I can get the Parabola, Sucaba, and the Stone IRS here no problem.

    Where are you in NoVA? You can get most of those easily between Norm's in Vienna and Total Wine in Mclean.

    Nice. I'm coming for a road trip through VT in the fall so I might be asking for some tips!

    Beers I like vs dislike or even just feel neutral about. I was at work and bored while constructing that list. I tried to go back and edit them out but it wouldn't let me. :sunglasses::grimacing::flushed::rolling_eyes::astonished:

    That's not "readily" available unless you live in Lawson's basement.

    Where in NYC can you still find KBS? That sold out pretty much right after delivery as far as I knew.

    Sometimes I see The Abyss and Sucaba out of the corner of my eye. But they vanish if I make direct eye contact. Rochefort 10 sticks around though.

    Thanks. I'm west of Leesburg, so going into Vienna or Mclean is a nightmare for me. According to Google it's only 45 mins, according to life it's like 1 hr+ most days. Closest by me is the Sterling TW, which seems to have a pretty good selection.

    Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier, Duvel and Tripel Karmeliet are all available in British supermarkets.

    Correct, as far as I know. I was able to get a hold of 3 separate bottles, but I always called first to make sure I wasn't making an unnecessary trip. Even my usual bottle shops had KBS come and go within hours.
