    Anyone heard anything about when this should be hitting Louisville? I know it's cool to hate on Ballast Point after they "sold out" but I am still a big fan of their beer and want to give their pineapple sculpin a try.

    Well the beer trappe in Lexington got it on Monday and watermelon dorado so I would expect the rest of the state to get it tomorrow. The watermelon dorado was pretty good if I am being honest. I love grapefruit sculpin though. One of my top IPAs so I imagine the pineapple will be decent too. They are a great brewery

    I don't give two flying shits about the selling out aspect. Good beer is good beer. And Ballast Point makes good beer.

    Louisville beer store has the mango even keel and watermelon dorado, no pineapple sculpin though.

    Great Flood tapped a keg at 2 and it was blown by 3, a little pineapple on the nose and a little on the back end, pretty solid

    Don't know if anybody's still looking, but they had something like 4 cases at both Middletown and Springhurst Liquor Barns today.

    If anyone is still looking for this, Old Town on Bardstown Rd had cases of it stacked in the walk-in cooler last night. They had plenty. Also had some Stone Americano Stout as well.
