    Just curious if anyone has seen this in either ME or NH. Been looking forwards to tasting it as I've always been a fan of their IPA/DIPAs. Talked to a few stores and have only heard "it's coming real soon!" but that could mean weeks. FWIW picked up some DirtWolf at Tully's....delicious!

    Per Facebook : bottling started 10/2 will be on the shelves ASAP. My bet late next week earliest it will hit the northeast.

    Any one seen this yet? Don't need specific location of store, just curious if it's dropped yet. Haven't seen it myself.

    My neighborhood packy seems to get its deliveries on Friday, so I'll be going by tomorrow to look for it. I suspect that like last year (but not previous to that), they'll be selling single bottles with a 1-bottle limit (per day) rather than four packs. I'd really like to try it on tap but I've never been so lucky. Love this beer.

    Any sightings yet? I'm coming going from Lawrence, MA to Northampton, MA tomorrow and wouldn't mind taking a pit-stop off of 90 or 91.

    Saw in VT, laughed at $15.49/4pk and bought Heady Topper instead.

    I'm not surprised at the high price for a four pack of founders harvest. Last year it went fast on the initial stock, I think it was priced around $10.99, very tasty beer but they had plenty of it later on, sometimes staying on the shelves for quite some time.
    Not worth more than $10- 12 a four pack in my opinion.

    I just paid $12.49 in VT yesterday. Guess VT is like MA with the pricing disparities we see down here from store to store. Also, grabbed a 4-pack of Backwoods for $15.49.

    It's in the wild a lot of places...I've seen 2 btl limits around....can't believe it, but seems like most stores got 1 case. CBC probably got the Jordan-treatment and got treated more generously..
