    Haven't actually seen it, but have seen at least one FB post from a Hartford area packie that hinted to having Sip in stock.

    Saw some at Crazy Bruce's in west hartford yesterday. They only received 2 cases, far less than they've seen before. Most other places expect it later this week.

    I actually noticed one of the larger stores in my area dropped their price from ~18 to ~16. Still a little to high.

    I purchased the last 4 pack from Cork 'n Bottle in West Hartford around 4PM yesterday for $13.99 which is the lowest I've ever seen it.

    That is what it is supposed to be. Also, stores aren't supposed to split it up into 1 or 2 cans. I try to support the stores that sell it the way the brewer intends. Both Harvest Country and Harvest Fine Wine in West Hartford sell it for $13.99 + T&D when they have it so I always try to give them my other beer business too.

    I just walked into SW&S, and happily grabbed some 4/14 Sea Hag and asked a guy working there,
    "Hey bud, did you get any Sip this week?"
    "Nope" <begins to walk away>
    "Sorry, did you get any last week? I hear it's around."
    "IDK, I was on vacation last week" <begins to walk away>
    "If it's not too much trouble, would you mind checking to see if you have any?"
    <Sigh> "I'll see what we have." <brings out two cans @$5/can>

    I also called on Saturday and asked," Hey, did you guys get any sip in this week?"
    He said, "I can check, what's your name?"
    <gave name>
    "Nope, it didn't come in."

    I'm just going to stick to my freshy Sea Hag, this BS runaround to get sip is too much for me, not to mention the gouging. #FirstWorldProblems
