    We have been getting Maine (MBC) distro here for a while, but mainly Peeper and Zoe, both beers I really enjoy, and Mo and Mean Old Tom also showed up for a bit.

    Lunch never seems to be around, and that is my favorite. I was reminded just how good Lunch is yday when I was lucky enough to enjoy one.

    Does Lunch show up in your neck of the woods? How frequently, and does it stick around when you see it? Have I just been missing it when it makes an appearance here? Any on your shelves now?

    It's a great IPA. If you have a chance to try it you certainly should.

    Fresh bottles just hit shelves in NYC. They don't last too long. Really, they don't.

    cases come and go around these parts(SEPA) its a little expensive for what it is and I could prolly land a case a month if I wanted to.

    Saw a bunch at a certain beer store in Park Slope last night. Couldn't pull the trigger... think it was $12-13.

    I love Lunch, my fav IPA... I usually grab it or any other Maine beer every weeks when a new shipment shows up in NYC (via WF Bowery) Missed this last release.

    Thanks for all the info. Looks like I have just not been at the right place at the right time for this quick to sell out beer. Hope this is the start of better luck.

    Hey cavedave, I will bring you some at the bottle share on the 13th. I just picked up two yesterday and would be happy to share.

    Everyone is welcome to their opinion. Having said that, I find it to be amazing. It's better than sculpin and on-par or better than blind pig, IMO.

    Having said that, I can get it very, very fresh since I live in NE.

    We get good distro of MBC, but have only seen Lunch once. All of the others we see regularly.

    Got to try a fresh bottle last weekend while visiting friends out east, and I'll have to say, I was more than impressed.
