    Sicilianos was putting out their first shipment of Green Flash brews as I stopped in yesterday. Hadn't heard anything about them being distributed here and this still isn't showing up on SeekABrew, but they have Green Bullet, Imperial IPA, Le Freak, Double Stout, Hop Head Red and West Coast IPA.

    Awesome, and one less reason I to drive to Ohio for beer.

    I like that MI's distribution keeps improving, since it looks like I'll be moving back there come May.

    Wish to God we could see Palate Wrecker in that bunch!

    Is PW seasonal or year round? If its season, maybe it will be here.

    I picked up some Green Bullet Tuesday, I am enjoying it. If all we ever got from Green Flash were Green Bullet and Rayon Vert I would be happy.

    The salesman for our Green Flash distributor just told me to expect Palate Wrecker in January.

    Saw Hop Head Red and West Coast IPA in Lansing yesterday. Is it worth almost $11 for a 4 pack?

    cracked a few of the samples that got dropped off today...

    Green Bullet wasn't bad, got a lot of onion flavor which kind of reminded me of Oskar Blues Gubna.
    West Coast IPA I liked a little bit better, had some nice earthy hop flavors, similar to Dogfish 60 Minute.
    Double Stout is my favorite so far. Reminded me of a bigger Founders Porter, with some subtle dark fruit notes.

    If you're in southern Oakland county, these, plus Hop Head Red, La Freak, and Imperial IPA (those are all the ones available right now) should be hitting stores tomorrow.
