    According to the NCABC website they got approval for pretty much all of their beers, so it's reasonable to say all of them. Maybe not all at the start though...

    Edit: only approved in the western part of the state at the moment. Someone else pointed that out in an earlier thread

    As I said that's as of right now, they will be pouring at the Charlotte Octoberfest so I'm guessing they have plans to go state-wide. It could simply be a matter of finalizing distribution deals for the other areas.

    Edit: or waiting for the NCABC website to update to reflect those changes, I have no idea how often that happens.

    Great Lakes did it, but that was a brewery decision. Im guessing they didnt think they could flood the market like they do wherever the enter.

    It does make sense. Rather than trying to cover a whole state go at it bit by bit. Let the hype and inital above average sales die down a little to get a feel for how much you'll have to regularly supply to that area before moving on to the next.

    if it' like the VA roll out this spring/summer, they entered only NoVA and only their Smokestack series (not all of the Smokestacks either... we didn't get Saison Brett)

    Not yet, currently Tripel, Dark Truth, Single and Double Wide, Oktober, Wheat,Tank 7 Farmhouse, and Quad, I am sure seasonal and other craziness will be coming!! Can't wait, may drink a barrel aged quad in anticipation......but probably shouldn't!

    A double wide will suffice I guess! How's that for teasing!!

    I'd have to say peabodys. The post that originally had the link from the bottles with the counties listed did not have any counties in the triad. The closest county to us on that list was yadkin and surry. And there are no bottle shops in those places.

    So if anybody wants to drive up that hill, I'm game.
