    After doing some searches and talking to a few BA members, it does not appear that there is any centrally-located thread for regionally available releases. Specifically, there is the news/release forum for national releases (e.g. Founders KBS), and there are threads like the Chicago Stout Release thread, for stouts available in Chicagoland. But there appears to be no available list (or thread) that broadly encompasses releases is this region. There is also no list for beers that have consistent release dates each year (e.g. KBS on 1 April).

    If I have missed the thread similar to this that already exists, please feel free to let me know. Otherwise, let this be the central location for any release available in more than 1 of the Great Lake states. As cool as NG Strawberry Rubarb might be, probably best to keep that in a Wisconsin-bottle hunt thread, as it is not available elsewhere.

    I understand that if you look around enough you can find everything. I'm tired of trying to keep up with posts just to see what is new.

    As a good example, DFH 120min IPA doesn't seem to be very hype worthy, but a buddy of mine loves it. I don't see him often, so I won't buy it for him, but I am eager to know when it comes out so that I can let him know. I haphazardly called a couple shops to check after seeing a few pop up inside the 'recent hauls' thread, and thus learned of its' recent release.

    Edit: I'm happy to sporadically throw up (and update) a list of beers that have consistent releases as this thread evolves.

    Can a moderator change the name of this thread to "Great Lakes Region" Release thread? Just realized I totally goofed!

    Two stores in NW Indiana have indicated that they will get Doom this Friday. This is in line with what happened with KBS compared to other states and areas.
