    Are the new Once Upon A Time beers still on shelves in the Boston area? They didn't make it down to NYC and I was hoping to find some while I'm up for ACBF next month.

    They're still pretty readily available. A store by me has at least 7 or 8 of each on display...I can only imagine they have more in the stock room.

    The two stores I frequent most still have both.

    The historical recreations Pretty Things puts out fascinate me.

    I was in Boston in mid April and Craft Beer Cellar had a bunch of the X ales, both are awesome.

    They're all very good. I've put up a few ISOs for them and gotten absolutely nothing.
    If anyone wants to hook a brother up.....lemme know.

    Still seeing some at stores around the Rhode Island line near route 1.

    Thanks guys. I'm hoping they'll still have it at Berman's, as I'm staying with family in the area, but I'll branch out to other stores if need be.

    FWIW, I was told by my distributor who said he was told my Pretty Things that the low alcohol X ale(1945 I think) had to be refrigerated and was likely to deteriorate after about a month. Not sure if thats true, I sold out of my supply in about 3 weeks, just throwing that out there

    Got 1945 2 weeks ago, put it in my fridge as soon as I read your post.

    Can't speak for a month for now but if Berman's Lexington is out, Menotomy in Arlington has the 1838 x ale. If need be, give me a shout and I will set one aside for you.

    Haha, I switched one from cupboard to fridge yesterday too.

    Both of these X ales are still available in Brighton at Martignetti's and Walsh Wines and Spirits.
