    Did I hear this right...100% Simcoe this year! I'm excited. Any ideas when it hits the stores? Any chance it will be out last weekend in September?

    This just came through my twitter feed an hour ago via MNBeer.com

    Canning Wet today!! Hope to have some within a week. Anyone in MPLS give me a heads up when it hits up there? Not sure how fast it goes, or if I'd be better off waiting for it to hit Rochester 2 weeks from now.

    Per Todd's twitter, it's supposed to hit the first stores on Monday, the same day as the release party. Last year I went to the release party at Tracy's, and liked it so much I stopped by Zipp's on my walk home to pick up a 4-pack.

    My recollection is that the first round sometimes goes fast, but after that, it's usually on shelves for a few weeks at least. I've also found it at less-frequented stores long after I'd be excited to drink it (months after release).

    If I remember from last year, Rochester got it maybe 3-4 weeks after the Cities. I couldn't wait that long and a generous person picked me up some from Blue Max.

    At the Icehouse bar on Nicollet and 25th!!!! Less then 3 blocks from my place sweet. I highly suggest Jasmine 26, Panch Villa, Black Forest Inn, Quangs, Harry Singh's, or Rainbow Chinese if anyone that is going wants a place to eat thats close. Dozens of restaurants in this area, thats why they call it Eat Street.

    I am so ignorant on any of those places. Since I'm going back on the disabled list on Monday, might be something to check out.

    aliving1-I believe I'll have to make a trip up to the cities then for this guy!! Don't want to wait 3-4 weeks for it to hit here. I want this as fresh as possible. Wish I could run up there tomorrow and grab 3-4 four packs to bring back with me to Iowa this weekend for friends.
