    Anyone hear tell of when the local Wegman's will be getting some in (if they haven't already)

    I heard the line to Shangy's release was 200 deep - yowza.

    Got a sixer at my Wegmans in Syracuse yesterday. $17 and there were probably 30 left.

    Call Tanczo's in Bethlehem. They usually get whatever Shangy's gets.

    Wow, times really have changed. It didn't seem that long ago that you could drive to Shangy's (no line whatsoever), they'd have the one case on the floor. You'd buy it and then they'd bring the next one out for the next customer. And it was very hyped even then!

    We got one case in today and it went out the door as fast as it came in the door.

    That's ridiculous. I also remember walking in to Shangys no wait and it would be on sale for couple days. The reality is this is just a good beer. I got 3 singles this year was more than enough.

    This beer is highly overrated. Just had green, lights on and haze from treehouse. Hopslam is not even close. Plenty of other dipa better than this and much easier to get. This just limited release hype.

    Allegedly the one half-keg in all of Northampton County went to Taps on Rte. 378, and it was tapped Super Bowl Sunday. I thought it was good (nothing special taste- or aroma-wise anymore). Don't know if there's any left.
