Ballast Point in DFW updates?

The last update I heard from Corey at the Common Table was that he was hoping to have them on tap by the second week of March at the latest, along with Alaskan Brewing. So they may hit the shelves around the same time.

 

Was out and about the other day asking about Ballast, many are saying the first of April now. They may have pushed back the launch to not compete against Alaskan that is releasing this week.

 

whats the story with either of these? Has anyone seen any hit shelves or news of it?

 

As long as they get it figured out for alaskan and ballast point by winter seasonals I'm okay with it. If we miss out on victory at sea, smoked, and baltic porters I'm going to be pissed.

 

Agreed. If all we ever get from these breweries is their year round releases, then it will be not that interesting to me. Don't forget the Alaskan Barleywine, it is well reviewed also.

 

Just saw this on FW Saucer Facebook page:

Looks like Addison Saucer rolled out the Alaskan brews last night.

 

Alaskan rolled out yesterday on taps in Houston as well.

This post is well over a month old. I don't see any credible proof it is any closer to being here....

 

okie dokie!

 

Hit'em up on Facebook. They have been more than willing to answer questions. I last messages them about 2 wks ago and they said, they are working on getting the 1st shipment ready to go out.

 

I have a friend that works for Andrews and he said it will be at least a month till they are here. They've only sent samples so far.

 

Common Table just posted that Ballast Point will be tapped on Wed... Calico, Pale Ale, Big Eye, and Sculpin... FINALLY!!!

 

Hello. As mentioned by nickss, the Common Table will tap four kegs tomorrow. Next week or thereabouts, Spec's will have bottles of Ballast Point as well as Alaskan.

P.S. They also have the 75 Minute bombers right now.

 

Sculpin ! The local beer scene just keeps getting better and better!

 

Just picked up a sixer of sculpin and big eye at Lonestar. The sculpin hurt the wallet at 16.99. Got home and the the best by date is 7/19/12 and I believe that means it was bottled jan 19. Hoping For the best

 

$17 a sixer isn't that bad if you calculate it by the ounce compared to a bomber. The bomber price of $9.50 would be $31 a sixer...

 

Anyone know if this is going to make it to Tarrant county? Kinda assuming no. No worries since I'll be in Dallas over the weekend.

Should I head over before Saturday to Lonestar?
