    Just wondering, I have yet to see these in any of the stores in central MD. Where are these to be found? Just bought a 6er of bottles, taste great, but was hearing a lot of buzz about the cans so I've been looking to give them a try. Can't seem to find anyone carrying them however.

    I bought a 4-pack of PU in cans a few months ago at a Wegmans in SEPA. Do you know who the Wholesale Distributor is for PU (MillerCoors) in your area? Maybe a phone call to them will let you know if canned PU is available in your area and which retailer has them?

    Cheers!

    I can talk to one of the beer store shop owners about that. We get a very weird distribution of beers in Frederick Co. MD for sure. For instance we get a ton of Sam Adams offerings but no one in our county gets Noble Pils. Surrounding counties get it though. Boulevard....very erratic from store to store and never seen Love Child in our county, nor the Brett.

    Yeah, the craft beer distribution chain can be vexing. I am not 100% sure how the inventory relationship exists between Wholesale Distributors and Breweries. Do the Wholesale Distributors simply just place orders or do the breweries negotiate with the Wholesale Distributors what beers they will make available to them?

    Cheers!

    The only cans in GA I have seen are the historic labels a few months ago. I look for it all the time as it is real good in the can, pretty good in brown bottle and skunky in the old green bottle.
