    I found this bottle at store while traveling today. I've only seen these little bottles for the Grand Reserve beers. Any info on it appreciated. Thanks

    I have seen the non-GR stubbies in Ohio.

    Exact details escape me but there has been limited distribution of stubbies recently. Oro may be the only brand they run in that format at the moment.

    The brewery was experimenting with small bottles again possibly for distribution. I got one from the JP rep in Michigan, seems like a good idea if the price point is right

    Thanks. Found it at little place in Ohio with quite few other surprises.

    Yep, the stubbies of Oro are available at a few Ohio locations.

    They should put them in four packs like New Glarus.

    JP used to do 6 packs. A 6er of Bam used to be less than a 750 is now.

    I would love to see them go back into small format/6 packs. Unfortunately when I last saw a stubbie it was almost exactly half the price of a 750 (I think it was $7 or $7.50), so a little more expensive per ounce.

    Different JP question because I don't want to start a new thread about a pumpkin beer, since most people seem to hate that style, but did JP put out a new batch of La Parcela this year? I'm only seeing bottles dated 9/2012 around.

    Thanks.

    Yes just had one. Tastes good. I don't know if it's just me but
    I don't get very much if any pumpkin. Still just a solid beer imo

    I agree, the stubbies would be nice but at around $8 when you can double your beer for $4 with the bomber I don't see it being likely.

    They've been randomly releasing stubby bottles of Oro and others. Very randomly though.

    When you say releasing, are you implying at the brewery? Or bottles being sent out for distribution? I've only started looking for bottles from them recently, so perhaps the fresher stuff came and went, but I think I've seen one batch of any JP brew with a 2013 date here in Chicagoland.
