    It's on tap at 44 Stone in Columbia, MO. I need to try it on tap for comparison sake.

    Others stores in the Twin Cities must have this, if Ale Jail has it? I think I really just want it because of the can, but sounds like the brew inside isnt too shabby either.

    That can artwork is total pandering and yet I'm powerless to resist it.

    The Galaxy ship has landed Minnesota! Cans are unloading now...and I am making the delivery to Ale Jail shortly. We just packaged these on 3/5, so it's about as fresh as you're going to get! Ale Jail has the can release, and I'll be sampling from 5-7p tonight, and tomorrow at Zipp's from 4-6p. High-fives are welcomed.

    I got mine in Topeka. Great beer always sits on the shelves there. That town doesn't buy the good stuff. They still have Boulevard Collaboration #2 and some 2011 Saison Brett on shelves.

    I had a few pints Friday at Boulder Tap House in St. Cloud. They were having a special tapping of Halycon "Stiletto" w/ rapsberry and cascade hops I believe that sounded awesome. Tallgrass' firkin program is pretty great!

    Still not in liquor stores up here, so I settled for Furious which was a pleasant surprise to see in the store. The Tallgrass is much more affordable and 8-bit will likely be a go to this summer!

    the Tallgrass rep was saying that there will be a plum saison this summer, sounds awesome!

    Where the hell is it? I was in Surdyk's and a friend was in Haskell's and we both struck out.
