    Does anyone know where it is distributed in Florida? I am in Sarasota/Tampa area, local total wine said they couldnt get it in. I would like to buy some.. Any help is appreciated.

    If you are in Tampa, Luekens in Palm Harbor amd Dunedin have a couple (Bam Noire and Calabaza Blanca). The best selection I've seen is in Orlando at Knightly Spirits. They must have 6-8 different JP beers for sale.

    Treasure Coast and Palm Beach have gotten JP, but not a ton. I'm not sure if they pulled out of FL or not, but wouldn't be surprised. It just didn't sell that much down here, not that I didn't try to drink it all. Wish I could give you a better answer.

    I can speak for Knightly Spirits having a pretty big selection of it, and Tipples in Gainesville has a few. In North Florida, we have to have our distributor go through another distributor to get it, so we don't get it so often, though we have Bam Biere now and had Maracaibo about a month ago.

    JP hasn't pulled out of the state. They use Shelton Brothers as the distribution channel through much of the US. So anywhere that gets Shelton stuff can in theory carry JP. The issue typically is not having enough of their stuff to go around.

    As mentioned Knightly is typically the place I see the most of their stuff. I've seen a little in the Tampa area and honestly we have started see a pretty steady flow in south Florida as of late. I almost always see Oro de Calabaza & La Roja in recent months.
