    If it was scheduled to ship to IL this week, any idea of when it hits the shelves? Guesstimates work fine.

    Reserved a case last year.....my beer distributor did not get enough to please everyone so they sold two six packs per person. I passed when they told me it was $45 for 12 beers. Just bought another NN and still had a few $ left over. Yup its illegal to break cases but its done here in PA all the time anyhow.


    Enjoy

    My local place told me that they started a waiting list a year ago for this year's batch. They expect 3-5 cases and it's beyond reserved - such BS. grabbed a case of NN.

    Yes if he gets to the store quickly he should be able to get some. I'm not sure how bad it is on the MD side, but in VA and DC it goes fast. Many stores sell out of Hopslam in a matter of hours.

    My store in St. Louis is expecting it Fri-Sat., and planning to release it on the 20th IIRC. Soon :wink:

    This. I buy half a case of Hopslam max, because I'll only drink two to three per week.

    Store has responded, and apparently although they still don't know how much they're going to get, they're going to split the amount evenly over the reserve list they got. So at least I'm guaranteed to get some!

    I bought a sixer at my local bottle shop for $16.99, would love to find it someplace for $15.99 that's a good deal there!

    Will be enjoying these watching football this weekend :slight_smile:
