    Anyone aware of shops that carry harder to find beers (such as CW BB series) in the posted locations, besides Discount Liquor? They're usually a good source, but then again everybody uses them as a go-to place. I appreciate the help.

    P.S. I'm not looking to find anyhting in particular at the moment, I'm just looking for some additional sources to check out.

    Sonoma Cellars in Oconomowoc has a nice selection. Was talking with the beer guy last time I was in and he said they get in most of the limited releases like KBS and the such. They had some Peruvian Morning there (just before the infection problems became known) so I would guess they get all the CW BB beers. Just from personal experience, they don't appear to turn over beer very fast though, so I'm cautious about buying anything hoppy there.

    Sendiks also has a decent selection. But other than Sonoma, Discount and Sendiks thats pretty much it.

    Brennans has some good unknown beers in their selection. If you haven't tried it look for Pakos IPA by Snake River. I've only ever seen it at Brennans and it is damn good.

    Thanks, I haven't been to Sonoma Cellars in years, didn't even see beer the last time I was there. I'll definitely check it out.

    Thanks for the recommendation, I have been wary of trying some of the stuff at Brennan's as I don't know absolutely anything about it.
