    Still haven't seen it. Please post which areas it is showing up when it lands. It shouldn't be tough to find soon.

    Is this out in the Twin Cities? Anywhere in the Maple Grove or Plymouth area

    You'd think it would be everywhere by now. What gives?

    J.J. Taylor is ensuring that it is properly lagered.

    But seriously, folks. I can't find either the Fresh Hop Equinox or the Snowstorm "Grand Cru" in St. Paul. Maybe I need to get my eyeglass prescription checked...

    I saw the fresh hop at Surdyks last night. I'm sure that doesn't help those of you in the burbs/St Paul.

    I picked up snowstorm at South Lyndale last night, but again, doesn't really help you St. Paul folk

    I picked up Snowstorm in Iowa City and that's even less helpful.

    Yeah, I haven't been in to Surdyk's since I cashed-out my 401K in 2006.

    Truly. There is something fundamentally un-cool about St. Paul that it has been left off of the August Schell radar.*

    *Aside from Chopper's old digs, and whenever Joe Sideburns goes to the Happy Gnome for a sales call. OH, SNAP!

    Picked up a single of this a couple days ago and tried it last night--a seriously impressive beer. This is definitely among the top 3 fresh hop beers I've had this year, along with Northbound's and Founders Harvest.

    It just arrived at the dustiest little hole in the wall this side of Morelli's. I crushed a sixer and am happy that St. Paul is back on the map!

    Really, really drinkable. So much to like about this one.

    I enjoyed a few of these last night as well and couldn't agree more with Chaz about it being extremely drinkable.
