    I'm in Dogfish Head's back yard, so I see just about everything they come out with. I see on seekabrew that they distribute to a pretty wide swath of the country. Can anyone give me some insight what their selection looks like outside the PA/DE area? Is it just 60 Minute, or does their whole distribution area get the rest of the lineup like 90 Minute, Burton Baton, Midas Touch? How about the large format bottles like Etrusca, American Beauty, or Pangea (to name a few)?

    At the bottle shop I work at, which is in Chicagoland, we've carried every beer that you named off, as well as many others. We get just about every release that DFH bottles.

    DFH started redistributing to western Illinois a few months ago. I remember several years ago when DFH and even Three Floyds distributed to Iowa but then pulled back to the Chicagoland area. I'd like to see both back in Iowa. or at least closer for FFF, but after seeing Festina Peche in 4-packs at a Hy-Vee in Iowa and how shortly FFF lasted, they would definitely need a good plan on distributing to the area and stay in the long run.

    The selection in Mass is pretty excellent, I always see 90 minute, midas touch, namaste and the 75 minute. Lately we've been getting a great crop in including 120 minutes and positive contact. I know there are a few more readily available i'm forgetting.
    When I'm home in VT I seem to see mostly 60 and 90 but they also usually have a couple bombers as well.
