    There seems to be plenty of it in the stores when delivered. I just wish it was more of a set schedule.

    I just haven't had trouble getting SoS in southern CT when it is delivered. G Bot is totally different story. I have heard that many stores in other counties seem to be doing the swcret handshake thing. Fortunatelt I have not encountered that.

    Probably, not 100% sure. The distributors sales reps don't even know most of the time when it will come in. And as far as i know, talking to some local stores it hasn't shown up yet. When it does it usually goes out to shops the next day. I am still sticking with my theory, lawson probably wants sip as fresh as possible for the market so they might have timed the brewing process with that.

    Yup, no SOS this week like was expected. Just Super Session which will start popping up in places in the next few days.

    Is the super session big bottles or 4 packs. I'm really hoping for 4 packs. I love that stuff.

    Are there any restaurants/bars in CT that are serving SOS in the 16 oz. cans? I've only seen draft. Just curious.

    I went to some stores in Norwalk and Westport today, but they did not have any. I also checked out my stores in Milford last night, but no luck. It looks like we will have to wait if you want it!

    I have only seen SOS in draft at the bars, not in cans.

    I was up in VT 3 weeks ago and there was multiple cases of SOS everywhere with no limits. I easily could have bought a car load full if I wanted. It seems like the supply/demand in that region differs from us down here in CT. No surprise to me with all of their other competition of Heady, Hill Farm, Fiddle, etc.

    ^^^That it is readily available to them so no reason to purchase every time you see it in a store : )

    Ive never seen it and I doubt bars would get cans with the limited amount of cases going around. Same reason Ive never seen Gandhi in cans at bars either. I coulld be wrong though

    Bars can sell cans.Local bar near me, (Dive Bar) posted they had a case of Sip/G-BOT last time they came around.

    Prime 16 in New Haven sells cans of BOT when they get it as well.

    Wait. I'm confused based on the title of the thread. 400 cases of Sip? Or Gandhi.
