    Ive probably asked before, but couldnt find it. How much does Indeed go for? I would guess 9.99, that seems to be the norm for crafty beers of this sort.

    I did see on twitter they are doing 12 pks of Shennanigans this spring. If the price is right, that would be a cool option.

    I asked the guy at Big Top in Eagan today, he said they don't carry Indeed. Checked with Cellars in Eagan, and they don't either. Bummer.

    Blue Max now carries it. It's priced at $9.39 too I believe.

    Dangit, I should've looked for it specifically when I was there last night. Glad it's down this side at least!

    The challenge is finding them all in one stop.

    I checked out Bell's site and they show Black Note showing up at events all around their distributed areas. Is thsi fairly easy to find around MN?

    Black Note was in and out right around ABR. Only three kegs in actual bars in MN (One of them was Mac's Industrial), not sure how many at the actual ABR.

    are you sure about 3 kegs? I can name at least 5 places that had it. or are they sharing kegs?

    Does anyone else get a weird onion taste from the day tripper cans? I love it on tap at the brewery but taste something funny in every can ive opened... And yes, they were fresh.

    I would also like to say that Abrasive is amazing. Have gone through a few four packs since release and just can't stop buying it. Going to be pretty bummed when it's gone. Wait, is HopSlam out yet :wink: haha

    My apologies. It was MGM on Difley Rd in Eagan, not Big Top!

    Did you notice if they have the new winter warmer, or the normal cans (which are delicious anyways)?

    I did not see anything besides Day Tripper and Midnight Rider. I would have quickly grabbed a bottle of the Winter Warmer and/or Old Friend.

    Do they date their cans? If so, thats a smart move to do right out of the gate
