    I've been looking to try some of this for awhile now, but it keeps missing me when I try to trade from Florida.
    I have fresh Midwest IPA/DIPA's I wouldn't mind trading this for, but I don't want to put in an ISO in the trading forum again if it's out of season.
    The only thing I get from the CCB website is that it's an occasional release.

    My question is: How available and fresh is this right now?

    FYI: This is not a ISO yet, and I'm not looking for any trading advice.
    If I find out it's fresh & available, you can probably look for an ISO/FT fairly soon in that forum.

    Thanks in advance!

    Thank you.

    May will be perfect actually.

    Definitely trade for it when it's available. It's in my top 5 IPAs and I'm going down there in the beginning of June to try and get as much as I can.

    If you want to forgo a trade and purchase regular rotation Cigar City brews online, I highly recommend Lueken's Liquers. Fast service, decent shipping cost, and fresh inventory (this is where I purchased my White Oak J.A back in January). Hope that helps you out, RNB http://www.luekensliquors.com/beers/domestic/florida-brews

    I thought this batch was being canned?

    no, the cans are still a few months out at the very least...late Summer at the earliest for any of the new cans (Tocobaga, White Oak, Humidor IPA, Jose, Invasion)

    Heading there tomorrow night, hopefully WO Jai Alai is still hanging around. I don't understand how CCB keeps growing in production, pulled back in distribution, but STILL is unable to keep up with local demand. Kudos to them for making fantastic beer!

    Was hoping this would be bottled a little later so I could get some when I come down in June but maybe my aunt can bring me some from Tampa when she comes up for my graduation in a few weeks. Hmmmm.....

    How long do you think this will last? My cousin is willing to drive up there and get me some but she's busy with finals till next weekend so I need to know if she would have to go this weekend?

    I would recommend that she go this weekend. You can never be to safe:wink:

    I hope she does it sounded like she will. I got it last time I was there in January but only 1 four pack and I regret it because it's in my top 5 IPAs now.

    Fridays are a big night there. Only safe way would be ASAP. She can always call ahead if she can't make it out right away to save herself the trip.
