    Hey everyone,
    I have a friend in Cedarville who has offered to pick up some stuff that I can't get in my area (Northeast PA) and bring it to me when he travels here to visit his family. So I'm looking for some recommendations on what to ask him to look for. He's offered to buy as much as I'll pay him back for, plus a small finding/delivery fee, so I'm looking to compile an ultimate Dayton area haul.
    Is it easy to find stuff like 3 Floyds, Pipeworks, Central Waters, and stuff like that?
    Other great local stuff?
    And otherwise any awesome beer that you think he'd be able to find in the Dayton area that I wouldn't be able to get out in nowhere, PA.
    Thanks, and cheers!

    I would suggest these local options:
    Brew Kettle
    Revolution
    West Six
    Rockmill
    Jackie O's
    Mad Tree

    I do not think Ohio get Central Waters or Pipeworks.

    Forgot about Revolution; I've had some great stuff from them. Thanks for the recommendations!

    It is not necessarily hard to get 3 Floyds, but it is not easy. You have to know the places to look and when. When is friend looking to grab things? I can let you know if I find any 3 Floyds. I have some Hopslam I can give to your friend if you want some before it gets old.

    Looking at your wants/reviews and comparing it to your distro, I recommend:

    Brew Kettle White Rajah
    MadTree PsycHOPathy, there is Glaxay High around now as well. If you can get a growler, I would highly recommend it.
    Jackie O's- you can get Mystic Mama cans or a lot of places sell growlers of their better IPAs and stouts
    Epic Big Bad Baptist
    Revolution Mean Gene, Very Mad Cow
    Fat Head's Head Hunter

    Also, your friend is close to Yellow Springs Brewery. Check out what they have on tap and have you friend get a howler or growler. There are lots of other good things that come around, but it depends on when they come in.

    PM me if you have questions or your friend needs some help. Cheers!
