    Pretty sure any TG bombers that MN has gotten have come out of Iowa. The labels read, brewed by Toppling Goliath Decorah, IA. All of the four packs have something about Lakeland, FL on their labels. The TG rep I spoke with said that the latest batch of Pompeii was not getting distributed to MN.

    Besides us on BA, I doubt many people know Cascade. So they enter a market at $30 a pop with the majority of the market not knowing anything about them, and not offer any kegs, except special events...

    *Quick off topic*

    Are there any places that have a good amount of MN brewery stickers? Or should I just know to get a bunch when I go to various breweries.

    You could try The Beer Dabbler store in St. Paul.

    I had a buddy looking for MN beer stickers and had the same thought. Went to the Beer Dabbler a month or two back and struck out.

    If you're not in a hurry & go to any festivals (ABR specifically) you can pick up tons of them.

    Yeah I kind of agree. I've had a few cascades, and they're great. But Almanac just across the border is half the size and 1/3 of the price, and IMHO better sours, overall. Haven't had all Cascades or Almanacs but JUST SAYIN MANG

    Maybe other stores complained about how low the price was.

    Costco Burnsville said next Tuesday for Todd. Also highly recommend Surly Two on tap at the source.

    Unfortunately am in a bit of a hurry...it's for a BIF. No big, I'll just go pick em up at the breweries...


    Not recommended for stickers then? It'll be a commitment to get myself over there in and of itself, so I'd like to make it worth it.

    Does any place do bulk discount on beer purchases? Like 2 cases of Todd for instance, or more?
    I would assume it would only bring it down to Costco prices, but thought I'd ask.

    Total Wine Woodbury had Todd canned 2/18? The carbonation seemed somewhat low but nothing that bothered me. Ample Light Speed, Symzonia from Omnipollo, Ode canned 2/1, One 4 pack of Blakkr left, Boulevard Chocolate Ale w/Raspberries, Saga :wink:
