    I've heard this will be released on 9/29. I know this is harder to get, but does anyone know if this will hit OH or if it has in the past?

    Is this something I should watch for? Does it hit Michigan? I know we get some Avery here

    Would be surprised if much, if any made it out of Colorado this year. They only had 21 rum barrels to use instead of the 30 they had last year. Based on how well it was received last year, more people will be trying to get their hands on it. It came and went pretty fast last year when it hit the stores in CO.

    Does anyone know if it hits the Pittsburgh area? I live in Erie, PA...we get Avery here, but not their BIG beers (Uncle Jacob's, Meph, Beast, Samaels, Rumpkin) unfortunately! These are by far and away the best beers that Avery makes IMO.
