    I was wondering if anyone could inform me on why Ballast Point has yet to come to Oklahoma.

    No telling. We just got Lagunitas a few weeks back, but I would much rather have/support Ballast Point. I talked to a couple people who work for 2 of the distributors here in Oklahoma a couple months ago and they said that we might start getting Firestone Walker at some point, but I have no idea if that's progressed at all lately.

    Maybe their hop heavy portfolio doesn't work well with having to be sold hot?

    If that's the case then Austin shouldn't be getting beer for at least a few more years of any sort...

    Easy. No cold storage. Hopefully that changes, but I have a feeling that politic$ will screw us on that issue.
