    One of my local retailer guys told me that some company named Micro distributors? picked up RR and will begin distro in Fla.Anybody else hear anything like this?

    Havent heard that, but if true I'd guess the distributor is MicroMan. Microman just picked up Bear Republic though, so perhaps he was confused?

    Dont get too happy just yet. Cigar City has the distribution set up in NC, just no physical beer. Until theres an announcement about an actual date, just wait it out.

    Crazy and doubtful but I hope it's true for you guys! Vinnie is always saying "NO NEW ACCOUNTS"

    It'd be rad for you guys down there if it turns out to be true, but I very much doubt it. There's a new Whole Foods opening in SF next week, and Vinnie wouldn't even agree to add them as an account.

    Yeah - RR is maxed out with no plans for expansion.

    This is probably the case. I'd love to be wrong, but I'd be super surprised if RR comes to FL.

    I think it's safe to say it's a little bit of confusion with Bear Republic. We had quite a few kegs pop of of BR in the tampa bay area of the weekend.

    Guy definitely got confused with Bear Republic. Awesome IPAs... but certainly no Pliny.

    RAWR!$@#$^
    Seriously though it would be awesome but need a solid source before I believe this will ever happen.
    Part of why I like Pliny so much is because it's hard to get, makes it more special.
