    I know we used to get Mikeller and they pulled out, but does anyone know the story on BrewDog?

    We used to get Brewdog in MO, but 4/5 years ago they pulled distro. Not sure on the whole story of distro cutback, but it seems like Brewdog has become a joke anyway

    No one wanted to drop almost a grand on a End Of History bottle encased in a taxidermized squirrel. They should have went with a more modest packaging option like a can encased in a taxidermized squirrel.

    My fall back answer when it comes to such matters is simple:

    "A falling out between J.J. Taylor and Shelton Brothers."

    I know that's incorrect, but I'm sure the actual answer might involves some of their super-duper, premium priced beer sitting on local shelves too long.

    I get that, they were following Mikkeller's model I suppose? But they have 4 regular offerings now, $10 6-packs. Would be nice to see those in rotation here.
