    Love this beer. Bought a 4-pack a couple weeks ago and haven't been able to find it in my area since. I was wondering what it's availability is going to be like. I remember reading that it was supposed to be the sub for Hopwallop but I spoke with a local beer store and they thought it was done. Any knowledge on the situation?

    Been wondering the same thing....haven't seen it since the first wave. Would be great to see this one pop up on a continuous basis.

    They just bottled a new batch this month. It's out around this area, naturally. I would assume it would hit distro too as it's supposed to be a year-round beer.

    Yeah, same story here. I scored some when it first dropped, and haven't seen it anywhere since.

    The beer guy I talked to in Minnetonka, MN today said it has been ordered and not shown up for him the last 2 plus weeks.

    Probably one of the more impressive DIPAs at that production level. Glad to hear it's not long gone.

    Victory had an issue with the bottling line for it, and production was delayed for a few weeks. Even in central PA, finding a case was nearly impossible after the first wave. I had to call a guy at a distributor an hour away and have him "find one" for me. They were literally impossible to find in central PA otherwise. At that point, I was told by the distributors and their salesmen (I called over 10 beer distributors) that production would be delayed a couple weeks. I imagine that once things are fixed, it will be readily available once again. I still have not seen it in bottle shops or distributors since the first wave.

    Yep this is what I was told by to different local distributors. Both said the lines were becoming cloggeged. Something to do with the hops.

    It def did hit ny because I scooped it up today. My first time trying dirt wolf and it's amazing. Very smooth and the abv is hidden very well. Go find some dirt wolf, you will not be disappointed

    Saw two four packs in a random gas station in a suburb of Cincinnati yesterday. Before that I hadn't seen it at all.

    My distributor told me they were relocating. Another one said it should be available again by next week. He it on tap and will buy bottles if it's at a reasonable price.
