    Blog entry on the website this morning reveals that it will be canned and available in 6 packs of 16 oz cans, hopefully in early 2016.

    6x16oz, whoopie. The best part of that video is the b/w, slo-mo, avoid-the-eye-contact taste. :wink:

    Does anyone know if they sell single bottles of the Framingham Lager at the brewery? I am considering it as one of our wedding beers (goal is a local and much tastier beer for macro drinkers) but I've never actually had it. Was hoping to try it without having to buy a 12 pack. Thank you!

    Not sure about singles, but you could certainly have it on tap at the brewery.

    Cool, perhaps a taster is in order then. Thank you!

    They do sell singles. I haven't purchased FL in singles, but I did for some of their other 12 ounce bottles, so I imagine they would as well for FL. But yeah, as Sheppard said just snag a taste from the tap.

    It was literally mentioned by @Sheppard on this same page no fewer than 10 posts ago. I know some of these threads can be pretty long, but come on.

    I can bring you a single this week - I bought the mix 12 pack that had 3 of those in it.

    But in @oldbean's defense, the more people that know, the better. And he did use bold to make it clearer than I did. :slight_smile:

    I mean at least I didn't start another "where do I get Heady Topper?" thread.

    By the way, how amazing is it that Jack's expansion actually seems to be on schedule? When does that EVER happen with breweries? We tend to be more interested in the quality of the product, but those guys are also extremely proficient on the running a business side of things.

    Honestly, the business side of things is where I think they even eclipse the beer side. These guys KNOW how to run a business and run it right. That is why I believe they have seen the growth they have. Not that the beers aren't great (they are) but them being able to handle the full marketing and logistics aspect of the company is impressive. That is often the failing of smaller breweries.

    Some of the nicest employees at the bar. Collin, Rob, et al. are always making conversation. Have to say, as a regular (there at least every other week) they are always willing to share other beers they acquire as well. The fridge in the tasting room is affectionately called "the white whale" fridge as it always holds something special. Also, as others have mentioned, I have never been disappointed in the beer they make. Also, another hint, don't be afraid of the cask offerings they usually have. It is whatever beer is in the cool-ship at the time mixed with really good additives. Cant say enough of them, and BONUS points for them being ok with well behaved babies showing up too. Makes Daddy Day Care day even easier! Thanks JA, cant wait for the new space too!
