    Just as an FYI - PT5 is available in the Madison area now...
    And it's drinking as good as always!

    Awesome, hope this means I'll be able to get some in Milwaukee. Seem to remember we didn't get any last year..

    WI didn't get a shipment of PT5 last year - I guess giving the boys of Dark Horse hell about it for 10+ months has paid off.

    I picked up a 4 pack at Groppis on Thursday night so MKE definitely got some.

    Scored a 4-pack yesterday. Had one last night- drinks quite nicely! I love the roasted flavour.

    Got a 4 pk yesterday and had my first tonight. Quite good.

    TO get an idea of how limited it is, Woodmans in Sun Prairie got 12 4 pks. I grabbed second to last one.

    Sometimes it's nice being in Michigan, I can currently get cases of the stuff. It is definitely a very drinkable brew!

    FTFY...
    thats why beers stay on the shelves there longer since they run for the paint thinner instead..

    It made it to Chicago/Rockford/DeKalb last year in very limited amounts - should be the same this year. It's easy to miss a release when most retailors get a case or two! And nothing sites on the shelves in WI - if it's good beer you will not find it within a day. We have beer truck followers here also...

    Hoping to score a case of this this year... Supposed to hit our shelves this week. Hopefully early this week!

    If your in SW Michigan, it shouldn't be a problem, I've seen it all over the place and got a case myself.

    Funny guys :slight_smile: My former professor from college is actually from London. Certain spellings are pure habit now.

    I don't know what the paint thinner thing is about, but the artisan cheese here in Wisconsin is second to none. And I'm saying this as a Michigan native.

    Out of curiosity, how much was the case if you don't mind me asking? I know they were selling it by the case at the brewery, but that's over an hour away for me, and I have had no time to drive that far.

    Roughly $84 I think, but I didn't get it at the brewery, it seems all the stores in Kzoo have it right now, and I enjoy it so I got a bit for myself :slight_smile:
