    You are The Shit.
    Tropicalia at my Atlanta grocery store that was CANNED YESTERDAY?!!?PKG9/23/15
    Yes, Please!

    I get fired up when my IPA is 10 days fresh in GA...but 1 day fresh? Awesome.

    If anybody at CC reads this, please go high five somebody else at CC for me as a placeholder until such time that I can return to your establishment to do so myself.

    Im guessing Kroger, seems to be the main grocery I've seen shelf space for it. Got lucky and found it once, but space has been empty last few trips.

    Im not far from there, drop in usually when I hit Bev Superstore on PIB. Regularly shop at Kroger on Sugarloaf, have found it there once before.

    Makes sense that if Ptree Ind Kroger had it, surrounding places might have some too.

    Technically you should probably be thanking the distributor for getting the beer from Creature Comforts to their warehouse and then to client accounts within 1 day.

    But it feels way less dirty to thank Creature Comforts, so thanks Creature Comforts!

    I gotta think CC might have something to do with how their beer is distributed via positive influence etc. The fact that it is readily available in Athens but not so much elsewhere speaks to the focus being in the right place IMO.

    And yes I know about our stupid 3 tier system. Just saying relationships matter, and CC is 1/2 of the relationship they have with their distributor.

    You would think so, but I have rarely found it in anywhere else in the Suwanee/Duluth area. Last time I found it in a local bottle shop, saw a guy bringing some out of the back for a customer, so I asked about it and also got a 6 pack.

    I want some Paradiso in cans. Come on, CC, do it.

    Until they do that I'll just sip on these 8 bottles of STS I have.

    Cause I'm a liar. :grinning: I actually only got one bottle out of the deal. Already drank it, too. Had a buddy moving out of town and figured that was a good reason to share it. Excellent beer, I wish I had 8 bottles.
