    Just saw a post from AJ's Beer Warehouse in Rochester (well, Henrietta) that shows some Hopslam sitting in their store. I probably won't be making out out that way today, since the roads are horrible and I don't live too close, but for anyone in the area...it's here!

    Any sightings at other stores?

    Must have just hit shelves then. I was at two different Wegmans yesterday (poor grocery planning on my part), and checked just for grins at each one. Neither had it in stock. What's it running for a six pack? Was there a ton of it, or just a few on the shelf?

    pit - Here are the Wegmans that had Hopslam for sale on Monday - some places have sold out - you'd have to call around: Wegmans that have Hopslam ready for sale:
    Hylan dr, Calkins rd, Perinton, Penfield, Eastway, Holt rd, East ave and Pittsford.
    $17.49/6 pack. Wegs locations got 10 cases or so per location.

    Damn. I was at Eastway and East Ave both on Monday, and neither one had it out. Guess I'll try East Ave again tomorrow after the gym, but I won't hold my breath. And that's a lot cheaper than I expected - I was guessing it'd be more like $22, as that's what I was used to in PA.

    No go at East Ave Wegmans, in case anyone in the city was thinking of looking.

    Pit - there's a bunch right now at the Pittsford Wegmans. Hegedorns also has some.

    Just grabbed some bottled Hopslam at AJ's along with some canned Jai Alai. Also snagged some of the fantastic Galaxy Brewing Andromeda IPA in growlers. I'm set to satisfy my hop fix this weekend. :wink:
