    Unfortunately, Singlecut (for the most part) and Kelso don't make it up to Rochester. Distribution nightmares keep much of the Hudson Valley and Metro area breweries offerings within the Tri-State area.

    We've seen Singlecut bottles here before, I've snagged them at both AJ's and Nathaniel Square. The Tap and Mallet will have a mini takeover with them next week, IIRC.

    You can also pick up Jacks Abbey in Rochester as well and I don't think that makes it to Ohio.

    That's better than what I get in Syracuse, draft only options at best. KelSo is still totally MIA, though. I'm hoping that once I move to Geneva I'll have better access.

    Went to both Wegmans and AJs Beer Warehouse. Had more flexibility than I expected. Wasn't a lot of what I wanted there but I was very pleasantly surprised to see Firestone walker Union Jack IPA. Got a bomber of Roc Union 56 filled. We don't have those smaller size fills in Ohio. They had singlecut on tap but I didn't know what it was.

    Grabbed all the special Genny beer I saw from the Brew House. Flower Power, and the singles mentioned (Beast Bitter et al). If I like the ESB (love the style), in may just get a Family Jewels variety pack on the way home. Oddly, Captain Lawrence IPA was sold out except for a bottle. Very happy with my haul thus far. No "rare beers". But still do want a sixer of CL IPA. Saw a ton of Three Head but didn't see the post unt after the fact. I really did like 12 Horse Ale. Hoping the Black IPA or the Scotch is just as good. I have a soft spot for Genny.

    This Roc beer is very drinkable.
