    They should've been here a long time ago. The brewmaster is from Litchfield! I was on the East Coast last summer and it was crazy hot and humid, Easy Jack went down like Kool-Aid. It is my favorite session IPA.

    Hope it doesn't go up there like it did down here. Everything was nice and fresh for a while but now I'm hard pressed to find anything recently packaged

    Is that because it doesn't sell or because the distro isn't quick enough?

    Significantly more complicated than that.

    Totally more complicated, but I was just trying to give a simple example to explain the statement that the OP made that "distributors are courting FW". Used that to show how a distrib would go after a brewery/try to win their business rather than the other way around

    Good question but its not something anybody has been able to get a straight answer on. I check the dates on Union Jack and sometimes Double Jack on a regular basis but its rarely fresher than 90 days out
