    If PDX gets JuJu, they will brew a batch in PDX and release it at the brew pub. Doesn't hurt to ask, but that's most likely. Hope you guys get some!

    Bought 2 bottles of Hopslam yesterday to try this years batch (not a huge fan so didn't even buy a 6er). It's ok.. Seems better than last years but still way way to sweet for my liking. Can't wait for JuJu. Love the tropical sweetness MUCH more than the honey sweetness, and it's much fresher when it gets here

    I paid 17.99 for a sixer of Hopslam. Guy in front of me bought 2 cases. with tax it was $152.
    Glad I didnt buy a case, been waiting for Juju for a while now!

    Plus, hopslam bottle date is 1/10, so they are already a month old and just hit distro here!

    Fat Heads sold Hop Juju for $12.99 a four pack at the brewery last year.

    Did they brew more this year? I guess what I'm asking is, should I expect my bottle shops to do the same old 1-2 bottle limit per person here in Columbus? Or is the idea of snagging a whole whopping 4-pack a potential reality?

    I was told at the brewery that they made more this year, supposedly... That they expect higher demand as it has gotten more and more popular.

    I was also told they should have enough kegs at the taphouse to last a few weeks at the very least... Bottles should be available for purchase through the weekend no problem and likely afterward, even with the mass amount of people they expect on Friday.

    Seems like they are prepared... Not sure how easy/hard it will be to get outside of the brewery though.

    FH's in Pittsburgh is having a release on Friday also. Last year the limit was one 4 pack/person, this year the limit is four 4 packs/person. I'm hoping this means there will be plenty more this year. Im still planing on driving to the tap house for a full case, I've been wanting to go there since it opened. I can check out Ogrefest and fill a few growlers with White Rajah at the Brew Kettle while I'm in town too.

    They plan to package more than double last year's production run.

    Maybe some members of the Oregon Ducks football team have heard of Ohio. Ask them.
