    Hopewell Buyrite. Coming in through Sarene, who is also distributing Singlecut and a few others in NJ now. Saw about 4 cases of Close Encounter on the floor. Not really my style but checked the date for the heck of it. Anyway, I expect this is bringing in what was available as a start, so still excited. How did you not know? Beats me...

    I would be excited to try their beers, but if they can't do better than almost 2 month old beer....

    Yeah, I wouldn't take that as any kind of sign. It was probably inventory they picked up. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

    Pipeworks has been in NY for a while too, but I've yet to see Ninja vs Unicorn. :slight_frown:
    The only beers I've seen from them have been Blood of the Unicorn, Lizard King and Lil' Citra. Let's hope they expand their lineup in both markets in the future.

    I've seen Ninja v. Unicorn in NY - picked up some up in Nanuet a long time ago - at least a year ago now, but I did get some. It's been noticeably harder to get their stuff lately, or else I'm just missing it.

    I live right outside of NYC and see NvU here and there in certain shops. I've picked up cans a few times but I usually only see them sold by the single for $4-$5. Hoping 4 packs start hitting NJ and are sold at retail

    More Pipeworks spotted in the wild. Lizard King and Blood of the Unicorn. As I expected these are fresher batches with 4/19 for Lizard King and 4/24 for Blood. I picked up the last Lizard King at Wegmans Cherry Hill but they still had several cases of Blood. Good stuff happening in NJ.

    Will have to ask again, as I wasn't familiar with them expect that ninja vs unicorn, so names kept just flying past me, will report back

    Mmm Lizard King, the best shower beer I've ever had :stuck_out_tongue:

    I've only had Ninja vs. Unicorn off growler lines though. Would be interested if they ever came in cans here.

    Beverage Plus 2 in Warwick or Brooklyn Harvest Market were my spots for NvU, but haven't seen it in some time. Glad to see pipework distro here, seems like not too long ago I was jumping with excitement after seeing 6 packs of Jai Alai in my local Wegmans.
