    Since Expedition Stout is a Winter seasonal, I wouldn't think there would be any left on shelves or at the taproom. It's been gone around here for months.

    I just went to bells, really surprised me. I can get bells in WI of course but they had tons of cool stuff on tap that you can only try there. Definitely try the wild one if you enjoy sours. Good food and nice atmosphere as well.

    You can pretty much get Expedition year-round at the General Store.

    Thanks again everyone! We hit FFF for lunch and stocked up on two of every bomber they had.

    Even got two of the urine trouble collabs.

    We did stop at Bell's and tried some samples, grabbed food togo. Traded a bunch of Heady for some stuff and bought some more. Kalamazoo Ale x2, exp stout, two handed, oarsman, and a bunch of others.

    Stayed in Sarnia.ca Tue night and got home last night in time for fireworks and heading out on a VT brew trip this weekend.

    Good luck at Hill...was there yesterday and got shut down...WAY too many people. Ended up at Alchemist, Lost Nation and Rock Art though, and still got some great Vt beers.

    Line was about an hour at HFS yesterday when we got there at 4:30. Scored fills of Abner, SS5, what is E, Edward, Everett, walden, and a bunch of bottles of Everett.

    Heading to waitsfield farmer market to hopefully get some DSIPA, Chinookerd, and '12 maple tripple. :grinning:

    If ya'll realized how far a drive the Founders brewery and Hopcat is off the route from either hwy 80 or more so, hwy 70. That would not be a suggestion.

    Dear op,,
    I think you should extend your stay here in CO a couple more days at least. You still haven't hit:
    Funkwerks
    Crooked stave
    Prost
    Trve
    Dry dock
    Odell
    Trinity
    And about 50 more great places.
