    I thought it was much better on tap at the brewery than it was in the (fresh) cans I had later. And I think I actually liked Bottle Rocket more than Be. And the coasters are nice!:slight_smile:

    Hopefully this is still the case when I make it in on Thursday. Is anyone aware of other places in downtown Boston that sells Wormtown?

    Charles Street Liquors had some last week at 1 can per person. Didn't even bother asking what they were charging...

    Sad, this used to be a somewhat easy to get beer. My local beer store in Stoneham sold out in like 1 hour, and that was mid day and mid week. The cashier, who Im friendly with, said that people are literally leaving work for this. I DO enjoy this beer, but refuse to hunt and search for it.
    PS: Not to shred the thread, but I feel a lot of beers taste better on tap when out and attribute that to the atmosphere you are drinking it in.

    Picked up a 4 pack at Crafted in Holliston. Tasted great, hope to see more of it around here soon, or at least readily available at the brewery.

    Looking forward to trying them next month at the beer fest in Montreal.

    Does anybody know if their caps have a logo on them?

    To my knowledge they only package in 16 oz cans and kegs.

    It seems like every beer I've sought to bring home from Boston has suddenly become hard to obtain. Last time all I did was Trillium during EBF, and it was a piece of cake. I'm going to chalk that up to supply demands for ACBF? I don't know, but sure, I could spend the 1 hour+ ride via public transit to go to the brewery (one way) from downtown, but I would feel cheated if the brewery itself did not have cans for purchase. So, I figured I'd shoot for downtown first, despite these mixed can reviews... Some beer simply tastes better on tap, and that's just how it is with anything. I don't like soda in bottles. If I do see it for 5 bucks a can, though, I'll just consider myself lucky with a taster at ACBF.

    I sound like a collector, but I swear I just want some souvenirs.

    Be Hoppy, yeah. They bottle some stuff like Hopulence but I'm not sure if the caps have anything on them.

    Wormtown's website has a beer finder. Let's you know who has it on tap. Fromy experiences they have a ton of tap accounts in MA. Also its always on for growler fills at brewery. Cans are attainable, but does take some effort.

    Off-topic, but aren't they supposed to start doing be hoppy and other stuff in 12 oz 6-pack bottles as well?

    Picked up a couple 4 packs today form my local place. Arrived today. Canned 5/13/15 that's almost a month from fill to in store. Who ever distros. Wormtown does an aweful job getting beer to shelves. Good thing Be Hoppy in general holds up well and this batch is solid. Dry hopping shines through, for sure, best thing about a good Be Hoppy batch.

    Saw that. Wondering what pricing will be. Hopefully in $12-$13 range a 6 pack.
