    For those like me who had never had it, Oro is the real deal folks. I like it more than Xocoveza (closest comparison) and Bomb! Righ up there with Hunahpu. If you dont like strong cinnamon or a little bit of heat, might not be your thing.

    Also, 4 Beans is impressive. I think it is similar to a smoother Victory at Sea. A little lighter on the coffee.
    Cheers!

    Had a trading partner ask about RBA Pumking. As far as I know it's only 2014, anyone know of 2015 being released.

    The 2014 release was much later than the regular pumking release - I havent seen any anouncement for 2015 yet. I know there is still bottles of the first release in my neck of the woods

    I got around to drinking my 50 West Brett Is My Copilot. So good. Like a good bottle of Fantome, although much more mellow.

    Are Revolution beers distro'd throughout the state? I know I've seen mention of them being in Toledo and Cleveland. I was wondering about Cincy/Dayton/Columbus.

    Definitely in Cincy- even the limited/scarce stuff such as Gravedigger Billy (which I love!).

    We get them in Dayton as well. I just found a bean Gene hiding in the back of the cooler at a local shop.

    I was really bummed with BA Black Maple :slight_frown: especially for the $1/oz price. Thought it would be right up my alley.

    Thanks for the info.

    You guys in Ohio are really fortunate with the amount of quality beers you get over there. About the only thing I would miss would be Schlafly.

    I remember reading that Schlafly is coming to Ohio, but I don't know about a timeline.

    Cincinnati? Or Cincitucky? I've seen the latter. But I would love to find some Schlafly pumpkin in Ohio. Stuff is magical!

    Who did they contract brew with? I'm a little surprised we don't see collabs out of Great Lakes with some great small breweries that can't do the quantity or have the distribution that Great Lakes have.
