    Binny's in Schaumburg got it yesterday and sold out. Binny's Niles got it this morning - one 6 pack limit behind the counter.

    This years is excellent as usual. Even though my palate has developed over the past 8+ years this beer will always be considered my first "whale." Something I noticed different with this years batch is the cloudiness. Is anyone else noticing the cloudiness? Still a wonderful brew despite the plethora of options today.

    *repeat from Chicago area post: Yeah - git yo ass to get it now - flying outta there! Seen it at Woodmans and Binny's but hoping our Chicago area Meijers get some too. But some local shops are brutal - jacking the price of the mini-kegs to near $50 when WI shops had them as low as $35...better off getting 2-3 six-packs at $18 each.
    BTW - it's delicious! (cans dated 1/26/16)

    We get Bells beer's here in Maryland but was told Hopslam will not be sent to Maryland. Boo.

    Any truth to that @LarryBell

    Binny's Lakeview still had plenty of it today, so I don't know if it's that crazy. Whole Foods is still getting it next week, as well as some other Binny's. I don't doubt the smaller shops jacking up the price, though.

    This usually sits around at NC distributors for a while before hitting shelves. Last year we didn't see it until early February if I remember correctly.

    any idea if Southern California is supposed to get this? I realize that Bell's only started distributing here fairly recently...
