    Hey everyone,

    I'm getting married in OKC on June 20th. I figured for a warm day and to keep my head on straight a session IPA would be a solid wedding day choice. Apparently the local distributors are out of Founder's All Day IPA, so was wondering if there are other good ones generally available there? A session IPA in cans would be particularly helpful. I'm not from the area, so not as familiar with the breweries that distribute there. I've checked a few and they don't seem to send beer to OK

    Just for fun, the other beers we're having:
    Coop F5 IPA pony keg
    SN Summerfest Lager pony keg
    3.2% bud light half barrel

    There's been some recently canned All Day 15 packs that have hit shelves in OKC in the past few weeks. Pretty sure there's some boulevard pop up cans here too, but other than that I cant think of anything.. Might be worth looking into a pony keg of Roughtail Pale ale if that's even possible.

    See if you can get a pony of some brewery-only offerings in OK. All are 4.0% and below. I think Prairie has a house version of Tulsa Rugby Ale, which is a great Pale.

    Been a couple of weeks since I was in Tulsa but Ambassador Ale (4.0%) is the closest thing to the Rugby Ale (5.4%), although Ambassador is technically an English Mild, while Rugby is a Pale Ale.

    I'm not a fan of Founders All Day IPA, but I'll second that suggestion anyway. I'll agree with @CTbrew32 on the RoughTail Pale Ale. If you're strictly looking for something local to Oklahoma I would look into Mustang Tractor Therapy Session IPA or COOP Spare Rib Pale Ale. Otherwise look into Green Flash's Hop Odyssey: Citra/Mosaic/Jibe Session IPA. I'm sure there's some other Session IPAs available around here, but I just can't think of any more right now.

    Thank you all for your replies! After your comments about seeing a number of 15-packs of All Day IPA around, my fiance's father's friend came to the rescue and we have a bunch of those coming. I do have to pick a replacement for the SN Summerfest though as they can't seem to find it kegged. Seeing if I can find a keg list to look through to pick a different easy-drinking craft beer with wider appeal. I will have to see if any Prairie kegs are available.

    Love F5, so looking forward to trying the Spare Rib Pale Ale.
