    I hate that i'm barely an hour from Myrtle Beach and I can't afford to make it out that way right now.

    Got 3 bottles at Bullock's in Woodstock tonight. Awesome store - first time there. There was still at least 3-5 bottles left I think if anyone wants any. $10.99.

    Westbrook hit it out of the park with Mexican Cake. Tried one last night for the first time, it was amazing.

    Hopefully I'll be able to try the BA versions, I have a new favorite and its initials are MC!

    They are. It was never in doubt. Also the can design just popped up on Beer pulse a day or two ago, and it's already listed in our distribution inventory though with 0 stock and no ETA currently.

    Yes we are. What I recently learned is that with the somewhat recent influx of canned craft, Ball (the can makers) have been having us send in samples for them to test. With all these new craft beers they want to make sure the cans will work right. Not sure what the problems could be but I guess they have had issues with other people's beer so now they have to test it.

    Question about bottles.

    My dad was down there and picked me up a case of mexican cake and was told that you guys recycled the bottles, so to bring them back. Was he correct, because I plan on coming down there at the end of the month, hopefully I'll be able to time it with the release of the BA MC's. Just wondering because I don't mind bringing back the bottles when I do come, but I could also see there being some sort of a sanitation issue.

    He may have been thinking about growlers.

    Yeah we reuse growler and the 6 pack holders but not bombers. The only thing I can think of is that we get bottles from a recycling plant in Canada but we never reuse bombers. Sometimes on the tour we tell people that

    This is what I meant....regardless of carrier. Free beer. Looks like Ball is located in Indiana too, so they HAD to figure out some way to get their hands on MC, right. I can't think of a better reason than "samples" for quality control-sake

    Don't sell yourself short. I just picked up a bottle on Friday at the brewery on my way to the beach. This and the Poppin Pils were both very good. Of course my growler of IPA was my favorite though. We leave Wednesday and I don't think you open again till Thursday, correct??
