    @augiecarton I know you said you're not planning to distro This Town beyond the immediate area but is there any chance we see something similar on distro? I've been looking for craft lager lately but most of it is not fresh which is a little frustrating. I ended up picking up The Hook as a sessionable beer instead and while I really like it, I'd like to drink something more crispy regularly in the summer.

    Love this “new” can design by the way with the thicker blue ring around bottom of the can. I haven’t bought Odub in a while. Maybe it’s not even new.

    GTFO of my head! I also bought today for the first time in a while, noticed the blue ring, and appreciated it as a minor bit effective and noticeable design change.

    Hate to ask this, Augie, but any chance SS Kentucky will see distro?

    The EQ collab is really solid, like it much more than blue milk. Really wish I brought a cooler to take a few home.*

    *This is the first of many stops today, so don't want the fans roasting in the Jeep

    I just picked up some SS 2019 from Roger Wilco. I have fond memories of polishing off a growler of SS 2012 before Sandy hit my parents house on the shore. I gotta say, this is every bit as good-- if not better. Dangerously drinkable for the ABV. Not a bad price @ $16 a 4 pack. Canned 5 days ago so I really appreciate the freshness factor as well.

    There was also some cans of Rub, Digger, Ouroboros (EQ collab...pretty pricey @ $22 a 4 pack) and I think some SS Kentucky left. Boat, 0dub as well (of course)

    I haven’t seen most of those by me yet. Not even Kentucky, which has been our for a while.

    they all go out all together, so if it's there it's been by you. so either it sold out, or your place didn't order it, or i didn't offer it to them. there are a thousand ways for that "where is it" cat to get skinless

    Rub, Digger and the usual lineup yes, but not the SS’s or EQ collab, and I’ve been checking around several places the last few weeks in my area (Bridgewater). Maybe by now, but not when I last checked.

    by me, the EQ collab just showed up late last week at Gary's in Madison and Bottle King in Chatham. The SS 2019 was released after that, so prob just showing up this week.. pretty sure I saw the Kentucky at one or both places last week... but I'm sure every store's quantity and pace of sales varies...

    I checked that Gary’s and another place near there maybe a week and a half ago so wasn’t there yet I guess.

    I would ask at Gary's. I know the one in Wayne keeps some beers in the back. I was there last week and 07750 and Ouroboros were in the back after I asked.

    Bottle Republic in somerset. Just checked their site and they have SS 2019 and the EQ collab. That place usually gets me what I need when I can't make it all the way to the brewery.

    Thanks. Those weren’t there last time I checked. No Kentucky though? Haven’t seen it anywhere in my area as I’ve said.

    I stopped by yesterday to pick up Complex 1 (and Our Town). Stopped into the tap room for a beer or so. I haven't been in the tap room in awhile. The Carton employees are awesome and It is such a great chill place. I need to get there more often.

    Nice. How was complex 1?

    Also I’m pretty sure I’ve seen This Town called “Our Town” more often than it’s true name lol
