    I know it's not a cool beer anymore, but I'd love to know where folks are finding NN, especially cans, in NYC. Today is supposedly the day it starts NY distribution.

    Haven't actually searched for it yet, but BeerMenus has it in just a few places in Manhattan & the outer boroughs so far.

    Have never found BeerMenus to be particularly accurate. Would still like to hear about first-hand sightings.

    This might help? It allows you to specifically select NN

    Yes, but there's sometimes a couple weeks' delay before it's updated. Still hoping for some field sightings of the freshest possible. :slight_smile:

    According to the thread in the beer release forum we’re due for NN today, so I would assume most stores will start receiving it by Wednesday, the earliest. I’m on Long Island but I would check Good Beer’s IG page, they usually get it pretty early. I always get a 6 of this.

    Note that anyone wanting cans will have to buy a 12 pack this year, bottles are in 6 packs.

    Good to know, thanks. I've seen it in a half a dozen places in NJ over the last 2 weeks and all cans were 12 packs. Wondering if the 6 pack cans are only being distributed to certain states as I've only seen bottles in 6 packs in Jersey @oneraindog ?

    I didn't realize NN was hard to find at all in the tri-state area

    It's not. Some people just get antsy leading up to release dates. Some more than others. :wink:
    Also, NJ gets it before NY.

    I'm not crazy about Troegs' beers, NN is pretty good, Dreamweaver and they have a few good stouts. That being said I went to their brewery in Hershey a few months ago and it was a lot of fun. I recommend it if in the area

    Not antsy, just interested in drinking it fresh.

    Well, it was in at all three stores I shopped at on Long Island this weekend, so it should be ubiquitous in NYC. It's a seasonal release so it should all be fresh. Cheers.

    Got a 6 pack of cans before. This year’s batch is fantastic. I love NN.

    I agree completely. I’ve already had 3 cans of my 6.
