    My beer store emailed me that Thirsty Dog is not available in MA. Is it available in RI, or NH?
    If it's available in RI- in Providence?

    I think NY is you closest bet.

    It used to be available in MA with a smaller distributor, unless they left the state fairly recently.

    I've seen some stores with it in southern Maine, right around the NH border. Not sure how fresh it was, though.

    From the Thirsty Dog distro map on their website it appears Maine is the only N.E. state still carrying them. RI definitely has in the past and I swore as little as 6-9 months ago I saw some lingering Old Leghumper and Siberian Night around.

    That distributor folded or was going to. I forgot their name. Apparently nobody picked up Thirsty Dog.

    Had purchased Thirsty Dog in RI for years until I did not see any last summer and Yes, they are in NY now

    Why didn't they get another distributor?

    Thirsty Dog is still regularly available in Maine through Mariner Beverages.

    Maybe they didnt sell much beer in RI? Maybe NY was a bigger market to target? Who knows, have to ask them...
