    It's available 100% of the time at the brewery. You can usually find it at most stores, that being said I haven't seen it at my local store for a few weeks

    You can get it at some Walgreens so I would say yes, it is very easy to obtain.

    It's been actually tough to land recently. Demand is very high and it seems like the store managers I've spoken to have a hard time obtaining it recently, let alone keep it on shelves for a decent amount of time. But yeah, best bet is half acre itself.

    plus half acre always releases random things randomly.. so you may stumble into something else delicious too

    It's pretty easy to find, but like so many other things, an individual store or bar may be out of it at a particular moment.

    It's on the shelves in Evanston 100% of the time. Both Whole Foods, Jewel, Evanston 1st, and even World Market all have it every time I've been in there. I'm actually more worried about it being old than them not having it.

    Similar situation here. Wish they would date their cans already.

    You gotta shop somewhere that stacks the cases (when they're in...)...perhaps somewhere near a lake...(tee-hee)

    No, that's good advice. Will keep it in mind, thanks.

    Most if not all Binny's in the Northern Burbs ie Skokie, Niles, and Des Plaines carry Daisy Cutter all the time. I'd suggest you hit those places up

    Both my local shops on the south side get it. In fact they seem to have a pretty good perpetual supply coming in.

    Interesting. Archer isn't able to get any HA. Maybe they're not south enough? :slight_smile:

    Or, as always, it could be the distributors....
