    I'm curious if this is from an increase in production or if increased competition isn't clearing out stock at the pub as fast so they distro....

    Seems like they made a concerted effort to distribute this to a bunch of places this time around. Its been seen at a few places in the city and near burbs. What they had at the brewery sold out in a day or so IIRC as have their past few canned gummy releases. Perhaps it was to get some exposure in the city to encourage people to drive out to Noon Whistle who might not otherwise do so?

    Could just be showing some love to their retail spots and keeping those buyers happy and engaged. Supposedly some stores that carry Forbidden Root stuff felt burned when they weren't even offered Snoochie Boochie cans, while others were. Smart move for Noon Whistle to realize you need to treat those relationships right.

    I don't know about those two specifically. But Beer Cellar just got it and Prestige in Westmont has it.

    Anyone know if these cans hit distro or just available at the brewery?

    Got it at Grand yesterday, there were maybe two cases on the floor, I think?
    But I wouldn't be too upset if you miss it, I don't know how it was in tap room or whatever, but this distro batch is seriously one of the worst beers I've ever had in my life.

    He was asking about guava smack I think. As far as distro I would think this batch should.

    I'm considering NOT picking this up; I don't want to have what sounds to be a bad batch to mar my opinion of the brewery. They are the NE IPA brewer in the area I have the LEAST experience with (one beer ever).

    Ah my bad, I thought this was a question about Gummy Banter distro.
    Haven't had Guava Smack.

    I think he was talking about the Guava Gose Smack not Gummy Banter. Grand did not have GGS
