    In town for a visit yesterday, I was able to pick up 3 tall boys of Surly Furious (brewed on 7/16/13!), a tall boy of Over-Rated West Coast IPA as well as a can of Coffee Bender. As a non-trader who usually has to travel to get those beers that don't distribute to Virginia, it was like Christmas :slight_smile:. Connecticut Ave Wine/Liquor & Deli, in case you wondering.

    Yeah, I was pretty psyched when I first saw Surly there a few months ago. They seem to have been keeping a few of their beers regularly stocked for the past few months.

    Curious how much a can cost of each?

    I think they were $5-$6 each.

    I bought a can of Furious there the other week and it too was a nice surprise. I live near D.C. but I never go there. I don't know how much Surly usually goes for in it's distribution area but I was happy to pay $6 to try it!

    When I was last in Minneapolis, I got a 4 pack of Overrated for $9.99. Most of their cans were $9.99 or $10.99. I think the most expensive was Coffee Bender, but don't quote me on that.
