    Sun Prairie Woodmans, but it will most likely be gone by then. East Side Hyvee is another option.

    Steves on Junction had at least 10 cases when I was there today. Lots of good stuff to choose form.

    Xhops Gold is the best TG beer (that's within reach) being distributed right now. Delicious.

    Ever is a long time, but I wouldn't get your hopes up in the near term. TG has mentioned growing out their distribution in their current states, as well as expanding into Chicago at some point, but I don't think I've heard them mention Michigan at all.

    3/9 is the freshest pseudo in Milwaukee, at least as of last Wednesday. They're cans though, so they are still tasting great.

    Fresh Pompeii hit last week, Ray's has the newest batch, just make sure you check bottle dates wherever you pick it up.

    There's nothing wrong with the cans IMO I asked because I wanna know they are as fresh as possible for a trade. Glad to hear about fresh pompeii so sad to see bottles from october sitting around. Anybody seen the gold xhops around still?

    Wonder if TG ever plans on sending it to Madison again. It's been 5 months or so...

    XHops Gold was in town at the mid/end of March. I have a picture dated 23 March, which I believe was about a week after purchase.

    I know they sent XHG, but there have been multiple batches of Pompeii and none of it has been sent to Madison.

    Are Woodman's and Tenuta's probably my best bets for TG stuff in the Kenosha area? I'm not typically up that way, so I'm not super familiar with what Kenosha has going on (outside of the Bristol Renaissance Faire in the summer!).

    Mars Cheese Castle and Tenuta's. I don't believe that Woodman's carries any TG Beers in Kenosha. Mars, in my experience, has the best selection in that area.

    Mars is a rip off. They wanted $15 for a 4-pack of cans (2 PS, 2 GN). PS is $9 4/pack at any reasonable location.

    Any chance you can drive another 20 minutes or so north? My buddy just came back with 6 cases(!) of PS and some fresh Pompeii from a place in Racine. I've gotten a lot of PS at the Sendik's in Franklin.

    I will keep both of the above in play, thanks guys! My girlfriend is dragging me to the outlet mall in Kenosha, so I'm trying to see how many beer places I can drag her to (eye for an eye)!
