    Cool. @BeerBuyerBill was quoted saying it was the end of July :wink:

    Glad the timeline is moving up.

    If we could speed this along so that it hits tomorrow my weekend will be much happier.

    Ditto. Now we just need Steel Toe to release another batch of Sticker Fight. Someone back at the end of April was saying 4th of July timeframe...

    To each his own but in my opinion, Todd > Sue ... and it's not even close.

    It's not. IMHO, it's a shell of what Sue used to be, which is a crying shame. Based on the most recent batch, I'll take Todd over Sue 11 times out of 10.

    Agree ^^^ Batch 2 > then Batch 1 the bitter aftertaste is gone, it is better but not close to the Sue i enjoyed 18 months ago

    It all depends on your palate for Citra hops. I do not like Citra. I can tolerate Pseudo Sue, but I can actually enjoy Todd. But there are many, many beers that I would chose over Todd and I definitely will not be buying any $16+ 4-packs of Todd.

    Great beer, VERY similar to Focal Banger with the Citra and Mosaic hops. Will purchase a case upon release.

    $25.99 here in Rochester, MN if it makes you feel better. We pay more than the TC due our distributor.

    Aren't they with JBROS/Artisan statewide?

    Surly is with Schott in Rochester, so I'm sure their pricing from Surly is different.

    I had them back to back at the Firestone Invitational and it wasn't even close for me. Todd all day.

    Omar says the Todd is incredibly expensive to make, and they will have to cut the profit margin down,for fear of scaring buyers away at the normal margin
