    saw their stuff all over last year. Got some Sensi in the fall, then all of a sudden they disappeared. Anyone else see their products around?

    I got a case of Hi-Res @ Beer Super in Wilkes-Barre last year. I also recall seeing Resin @ Wegmans. But it was only Resin there, no others. Beer Super had Bengali, Hi Res, and Resin at one point. Can't speak for the other bottle shops in the area.

    It's weird, I used to see the entire core line up and the seasonals all over, then about the same time Bengali got updated they've been no where to be found, at least in the Scranton area.

    Shangy is the NEPA wholesaler for Sixpoint. Guess there is no room on the truck with every label from Flying Dog, Lost Coast, Speakeasy, etc. clogging the shelves.

    In another thread, @Sixpoint mentioned that distribution to our part of the world is "tricky". Not sure what happened, but it looks like we're SOL

    I messaged Shane and he replied that they are currently looking for a new wholesaler for our neck of the woods

    Aside from Shangy, who are the other wholesalers up there? Is Verastro a wholesaler or just a big distributor?

    Not for Sixpoint, but yes Verrastro is a wholesaler (Victory, Weyerbacher, Lagunitas, Great Lakes, Ithaca, Long Trail, etc.) as well as Ace(Troegs, DFH, Stone, Sierra, Unibroue, Ommegang, etc...), and Northeast Eagle ( not sure what there portfolio is like these days buy know Susquehanna brewing for sure. Might be a few more. Shangy's, Stockertown, and Bella Vista make deliveries to NEPA as well.

    Tanczo's in Bethlehem should still be carrying Sixpoint.

    I've found them to actually have a better selection than Shangy's most times.

    I remember seeing Sixpoint at Joe's Six Packs in Dunmore. That was a while back, though. I haven't noticed if they still have any of their stuff.

    FWIW, I make trips to Sam the beer man in Binghamton once a month for all of my Sixpoint(and lots of other) needs. Grabbed abigale and jammer yesterday. Can't wait to dig in tonight!
