    I don't believe Wicked Weed makes it outside of North Carolina.

    Bruisin Ales sells it on their online store. Not sure what they might have from them now, but it changes all the time.

    I don't believe either of the beers you listed are bottled either, so you would have to try to trade for a growler or drive to North Carolina.

    Not yet. They are in talks with at least two GA distributors though, so we see them eventually.

    I heard that too and hope it happens soon!

    Dawwwgs, take the quick drive. I do it often for the angel releases and it's worth it. Go to the original location for growlers and then to the funk for bottles.

    With the new production facility in works in Candler they are sure to expand distro. I always just head up there bc why not trip to Asheville. Only the most hip place going.

    FWIW I was told this at wicked weed a few weeks back. also that they hope to release canned offerings in the fall, starting with pernicious ipa. dc also thrown out as a possibility, I believe b/c they allow self-distro.

    Yeah I was told they were canning some and bottling Freak of Nature in 16oz bottles in September.

    It will not. They are not taking on any new accounts in NC, they are at capacity selling to their current accounts. Once the new brewery is online and producing, they will satisfy the Triangle.

    If they dont fulfill my orders and enter GA, Ill throw a totally useless and unsuccessful rage.

    Odd that they would do either of these in the 500 mL format, but whatever. I'll take all the Freak I can get, don't really care about Pernicious.

    It actually makes sense. that price format actually helps keep cost somewhat reasonable. Haw River started with 500 mL bottles at around 7 or 8 bucks. It helps you not go straight to six packs but keeps it more drinkable and less expensive than a 22 or 750.

    I agree with that really, I just had heard nothing but talk about cans, so I thought maybe they would just hold out on the ipas until going straight to that.

    No matter what the packaging, and with as much as us GA guys drive up to WW we appreciate the love and good beer when it comes! We will return the favor soon. It's really starting to get good down here.
