    Any idea where I can find a link showing Hoof Hearted current distribution area? Thanks

    It's pretty limited from my understanding, basically the greater columbus area/surrounding towns and even that isn't guaranteed every can release. They somewhat recently starting distributing to parts of Maine as well.

    I live in Columbus and the only HoofHearted brew I've ever seen is Musk of the Minotaur. Twice. Really good, but apparently not even close to the tip of the iceberg.

    Yeah within 90 miles of columbus OH is about all you are going to get.

    The only place in Cincinnati that sells it drives to the brewery picks some up at the release.

    Not sure which websites are inaccurate here, but neither the 16-bit arcade or the 4th street bar locations in Columbus list anything from HoofHearted on their taplists.

    The HH website lists all of their retail accounts, not which places are actually getting their beers regularly or currently have them. Wouldn't surprise me that more like half of those actually get their beers consistently, and even then I'm sure they don't last very long.

    Cans? Very limited distro... some makes it here to Columbus but their more sought-after stuff typically sells out on release day. For instance, they're releasing Roller Blabe this Sunday and there's no way any of that is going to make it to stores.

    Fair enough. Yeah, so the moral of the story seems to be, basically, if you don't live within walking distance of the brewery, then the distribution seems to be close to nonexistent.

    It distro's randomly to Maine. If it doesn't sell out on a release day select Columbus stores will get it. Seems like it hits some stores around the state but I believe they drive to the release to get it.

    Cans only go around to the Columbus area if they don't sell out at their canning releases. Typically if you see it anywhere else around the state it's because they've been picked up to sell at those locations. They randomly distro to Maine, but I don't know how much gets around there since they can't even supply the Columbus market. They're self-distro, so if cannings don't sell out they don't usually get to retail shops until Tuesday.

    Once the brewpub opens, I know most kegs will be kept in house, and other bars may see a keg every few months or so.

    Cappys in Loveland, Ohio goes up and picks up their beers on release day. They sell them at the store as a two can limit.
