    yeah,
    again, I'm not saying you can't find it. but I haven't seen a regular batch go around like sip where you can get it even somewhat widespread anymore. and don't think the new cans are out yet or we woulda seen em. just posting to help this guy have an idea on limited time. worst case, hopefully he gets it on draft. def plenty of other great things - but one you can say you tried.

    A canned Be Hoppy is one of the toughest beers to find in Mass right now. Seems like Lunch & Be Hoppy were both supposed to have wider & more quantity promised in 2015 and I'm headed towards a career low in consumption for both of them!!!

    I've had better luck (and it's all luck) finding Be Hoppy at random small shops in Worcestor instead of the bigger, social media-friendly-er stores like Austin & Julio's. Those stores rock for many reasons, but they also attract a bunch of attention.

    Redstone Stoneham got a couple cases of Be Hoppy & Captain's Daughter on Wednesday this week. put it on facebook at 11. I was in the area for work, got there at 12:15. gone. don't feel too bad for me though...I had the beer hunter blinders on and made a surprisingly easy visit to Night Shift and came home with fresh Santilli & Whirlpool.

    I was at Wormtown this Wednesday. They sell cans at the brewery when they have them but as was explained to me by the guy serving, they only have cans once a month, there is a limit of one 4 pack, and they were out while I was there. Evidently when they do have cans available it is only for a very few days. Unlike what I am used to in RI, they sell pints and you can also buy flights. Along with growlers of course.

    I posted upthread that cans were shipped from the brewery yesterday to the distributor. Should start seeing them next week. Also, whatever liquor store posted that it was "the last shipment" of Gandhi-Bot cans is clearly wrong. In addition to the shipment that went out yesterday, there are still a lot of empty cans at the brewery.

    Treehouse is not open Monday-Friday.

    This thread has so much misinformation I'm calling it "Drunk Thread of the Week".

    If you're driving through CT/MA you should stop at "wicked weed" and "the bruery." They are both open Monday through Tuesday 10PM to midnight, the only time alcohol sales are allowed in CT. Marijuana is also legal here so stock up.
