    It's not mind blowingly hard to get if you're not expecting to get it often enough for it to be a go to beer. There are plenty of other good beers at the 12.99+gouge per six pack price. I'd probably wait for the next shipment too.

    Maybe it is just me but I think the whole date code discussion may be a bit overblown. My reasoning is... we were up in Vermont at the very end of May - 1st part of June and picked up some fresh (at that time) SoS and Heady. This past weekend the wife and I had the last two of the SoS cans and it has remained solid taste-wise over time. The Heady on the other hand (6 of those left) has changed notably in taste. Especially approaching 60 days in age and now beyond that.

    I will partially agree with the freahness argument. In the first 2 weeks it is noticably better than afterward, but it does not drop much after that for quite a while.

    Anyone hear anything about a drop coming. I think it has been at least 3 weeks.

    Any further updates to distribution locally? Also, what is the canning date for those who have acquired some recently? Thanks!

    Answering my own question from above haha. Went out at lunch time and found 4-packs in Shelton, CT. Canning date is 9/21/15. Cheers!

    There were plenty (about 10-12 4 packs left) at Max Beverage in Farmington last night - might be gone by now. Was $14 a 4 pack at a 1 4 pack per customer limit.
