    Looking for a couple bottles of this year's Pumking. I know Belmont Station hasn't gotten any yet. Anybody seen it around town? Thanks in advance.

    I haven't checked John's Market yet, but I know by this time last year, they already had a ton in stock. I plan on buying a few after 9/19 with some birthday cash. Good taste my friend!

    There hasn't been a Southern Tier delivery to Portland since the first week of August, and there wasn't any Pumking on the load. The brewery also just switched distributors as of last week, so hopefully their new distributor will place an order ASAP, but even if they ordered it today we'd still probably be looking at 10-14 days before it arrives.

    Chris. Does PDX have the same distributor for ST as Eugene? I thought I saw fresh bottles of Pumking a couple weeks ago at 16 tons, but I'm assuming that can't really be the case if the distributor hasn't gotten any in.

    I'm not a big fan of it, so it's not really on my radar, but I thought I saw signs about it's imminent arrival and then bottles over at 16 tons.

    Just curious...

    It made it to Bend, surprised we got it and Portland didn't.

    I think they're distributed by Southern Oregon Dist. down there (and in Bend), whereas Maletis was the distributor for Portland until a few days ago.
