    Anyone know if this is getting distributed, or if it's a tasting room only release. I'd like to get my hands on some, but don't really want to drive the 4 hours back and forth.

    Also, has anyone seen Hopped on the High Seas #529 hit the shelf yet anywhere?

    The Cubano Espresso Brown? It gets distributed. I've gotten several 4 packs of it before, but I trade them. I actually don't think it's that great. The last store I found it at was Coral Springs about 2 months ago or so.

    And the Hop 529 High Seas hit my area (Deerfield Beach/Boca Raton) this Tuesday, dated 1-30.

    According to CCB's schedule, it will be brewed in Feb, Jun, and Oct. It will be marketed, as usual, in 4-packs. It's one of my favorites.

    saw it at Whole foods tonight and in the CCB case on thursday. I really like that one, had so much of it in the past, but now I always seem to pass it up for things I haven't tried. damn tickers.

    We got High Seas w/Hop #529 this week here. (Palm Bach County area) Footnote on CSE, if you have a Randall/Randall Jr, Five O' Clock vanilla coffee and Maduro tastes exactly like it!

    I had a pint of Cubano Espresso Brown at Foodshack in Jupiter on Friday. Not sure where you are in FL but damn good food with a damn good beer.

    Cubano espresso is on leukens liquors website currently, I believe they ship anywhere in FL for $20. If you spend 200 shipping is free. Like others have mentioned it's distributed, usually $8 per 4 pack. I like it but not worth searching for IMO.

    I just had it on tap at funky buddha lounge and i don't think it is nearly as good as it normally is IMO

    I always buy Cubano Espresso when it comes out and am hoping to pick some up today or this week. It's one of my favorites.

    I picked up a sixer of 529 in the tap room last Thursday. Should be hitting local distribution now. Good beer, more subtle than the citra.

    Has anyone seen CE still around SoFL this week? I went looking yesterday and found CCB 529 but couldn't find any CE.
