    From the Fat Heads website....I am psyched!

    Really happy that I will be able to score a case of Hop Juju this Friday....easily one of the best beers I had in 2014....great stuff!

    HOP JUJU RETURNS ON FEBRUARY 13!

    We'll have an exclusive release at The Tap House all weekend (2/13-2/15) before it goes into market-wide distribution the following week (OH & Western PA).
    Doors open at 4 on the 13th. Live music with Austin Walkin' Cane from 6:30-9:30.
    Hop Juju will be available on draft and in 4-packs. Limit one case per person.
    Score some of this coveted brew while you can, it only comes out once a year!

    The release says Ohio and W. PA, so doubtful.....but you could always ask

    curious about this too. I'm hopeful they brewed a batch here. Best case scenario is draft only as bottles obviously wont make it down here.

    I would give them a call or email them to ask.....

    Hop Juju is shown on the list of beers for PDX as well on the FH's website, so they may be planning draft only there....

    And.....Portland is "over" (west and north!) from Cleveland, not "down" here! Haha....

    Cheers.....

    One of the things I'll miss after moving from the area (I miss being 15 minutes from the brewery!).

    Too bad MI doesn't get distribution on this one.

    You are welcome......you may not find it as early as Monday, though.....depends on when your distributor delivers to your area / stores next week

    Sorry, I thought Cleveland was in Canada - but a closer look at a map tells me its in a place called, "Ohio." Never heard of it.

    yea. my main go to is the Whole Foods in Dublin. Ive only been here for a few months but they seem to get most of the new stuff pretty quickly. They had stacks of cases of hopslam on the floor on monday. It was glorious.

    Hopslam has not hit in my area as yet (Akron) - not sure I will pop for an expensive sixer of that; may just go all "Juju" instead.....going to be some coin $$ for a case of Juju as it is....but worth it!!

    I was looking at the Brewing News IIPA bracket a while ago and FH's Portland had a beer called Head Shrinker. It's an imperial version of Head Hunter. They did that one here, with a different name, and it was good. Saw that you guys have IBUsive there now and that is a great beer too... if it's the same as the beer at our FH's.

    Draft Hopslam has already hit the Akron area so the bottles should be appearing very soon.

    I think Juju was $10.99 / 4 pk last year, so if is still close, then like $66 for a case
