    I can't say for sure. My buddy stopped in there on the way back from Atlanta and got a few growler fills. He didn't buy any cans, but said they had them on the shelves. I've also seen them at Just Tap'd in Warner Robins quite a few times. I live an hour South of Macon, but I work in Warner Robins so I usually stop at either Just Tap'd or Galaxy in WR once a week on my way home from base. Not many people know about Galaxy and they usually have Transmigration of Souls in stock. I much prefer ToS over Tropicalia anyway.

    I am actually planning on being up that way tomorrow, though I don't know if I'll still be around that late, but I really appreciate the heads up!!! I may hang around just for that!

    It's a small grocery store over on Poplar between 3rd and MLK with a deli and growler fill station, which can sell pints in Macon. Usually 6-8 beers on tap. Their growlers are something like $11/fill (Tropicalia might be a few bucks more) so they're a good deal for growlers too. Only downside is that they don't turn beer over too quickly.

    Awesome. I'll have to GPS it. I'm not familiar with Macon at all. I have a few friends in Macon that could probably point me in the right direction. Thanks again!!!

    What size growler for $11? 32 or 64? Because if it's 64 I'm leaving work right now... haha

    64oz. I think it's $7.50 for a 32oz. On Tuesday they had Second Self Thai Wheat, Creature Comforts Tropicalia, Allagash White, Harpoon Big Squeeze, Burnt Hickory Ezekiel's Wheel, Jack's Cider and Pontoon Pilsner. That Ezekiel's Wheel has to be pretty old, though...

    Downtown. You can park just about anywhere and walk a few blocks over if you have to.

    Got done brewing and walked next door to check and Hop City Westside has growlers of Cosmic Debris, in case anyone wants to know. Swortman25, thanks again--got lucky and saved some gas money.

    Off 75/85 in town you might find some at Greens or HopCity. But it's hit or miss.

    I-75 north near I-575 is a Total wine in Kenessaw that may have some, but I've only seen Athena the random times I've stopped in.

    And by variety, it'll be 2. Trop and Athena. If you luck into Athena Paradiso, or even Cosmic Debris, you scored big.

    Yeah was hoping to find some Athena Paradiso, was going to detour through Athens but going on a Wednesday won't really help me it looks like.

    It's probably all gone. I haven't heard of any second or third waves hitting, and was mostly limited to 1 4pk a person at the places that got it.

    but!

    If Cosmic Debris is canned and out.. Do that! It's fantastic.

    There wasn't a second batch of Paradiso, so what's out there is it. Between our two stores we only saw five cases total, and that was all sold out within 20 minutes. With all the hype behind it, backed with the hundreds of calls we received, it seemed like there wasn't a single person in the metro area not looking for it. If you find it, you should buy a lottery ticket too.

    Greens on Ponce had some Paradiso when I was there on 3/10. It was not out on the shelf but I asked one of the employees about it. He went into the back for about 5 minutes and came out with a 4-pack for me. I'd call and see if they have any before going.
