    They said they are working on the distribution for NJ. Should be soon hopefully. Great Beer. I go over border to NY on Rt. 17 to find the Imperial IPA. Worth the drive.

    I also heard they are coming back to NJ. If you ever want some of their rarer bottles, Decicco's up in Ardsley is close to the brewery and often carries their limited releases

    Kegs have already been back in NJ for a few weeks now. Haven't seen bottles just yet.

    I thought I saw some 6-packs of bottles about a month ago in Hoboken.

    I've seen Liquid Gold and Freshchester 6 packs in central NJ. They've been on the shelf for about a month.

    If you're already going over the border into ny for capt Lawrence, you should just go to cable beverage in Bardonia....right off rt 59. They usually have a good selection of bottles and sometimes have one or 2 on draft for growlers

    CL made a beer called Re-Intro NJ IPA about 6 weeks ago, to celebrate once again being distributed in New Jersey. There had been a period of time, a couple years maybe, where it ceased to be distributed to Jersey. I believe this was due to the common theme as of late in craft beer, to meet the local demand first.
    Thankfully for NJ and Upstate NY (as in Buffalo), their newer facility in Elmsford has ramped up production and distribution. So, you likely will see it in more spots in the near future.

    It's North Jersey only. Switched distributors.

    I have seen (and gotten) sixers at Linwood Wines in Fort Lee (they have the Gold, Kolsch and Pale Ale)- Tom also said he thought they could get the 16oz Smoked Porters and he'd give those a shot as well.

    Who in Capt. Lawrence's new north Jersey distributor - so people will know in which counties it's available.

    Not a very good promotion for their Re-Intro Ale, which leaves out that rather important fact:
    Uh, yeah, like WHICH distributor and WHERE in NJ?

    I keep thinking it's Kohler, but can't find anything on the 'net to confirm it.

    I'll ask the next time I'm in there, though it might be next week. The funny thing is, he looked through the book while I was there, but I didn't want to be too nosy and stood aside at the time. The Smoked Porter was definitely listed, and hopefully it's physically available.

    Yeah- I've gotten it a couple of times in Rockland County lately, top notch stuff, but would love for it to be closer to home.

    They re-entered via Peerless.

    Ah, yes - Thanks! Miller-Coors house - Union, Hudson, Morris, Essex, Bergen, Passaic and Sussex counties.

    (What's up with two of the major NNJ beer distributors both having the same names as two leading plumbing fixture companies - Kohler and Peerless. :wink: No wonder I got confused!).
