    I'm kicking myself for not hitting the brewery when this was released and it sounds like they are out. Anybody know of any bottles still sitting on shelves? Preferably north of the city. I know Redstone had some but I'm assuming it's long gone

    Just down the street from Redstone - Rapid Liquors had several on the shelf yesterday afternoon.

    Just talked to them and they said they have some left. Maybe give him a call before you run over there.

    By the way I had one last night. I was impressed.

    Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately I won't be able to get to Stoneham until tomorrow. I'll call in the morning before I make the trek from Groton

    I know its not north of the city, but picked up a bottle last night at Julio's. Great stuff and was really impressed.

    Did they have a decent amount left? I'm actually closer to Julio's than Redstone.

    They did. The cooler was full along with the other Wormtown offerings.

    $7.99 a bottle. I am sure you can call and they will hold some for you as well.

    So happy to see this bottled....drank one and it was pretty much right on with last time I had it on tap. I would hope and expect that it will age ok...because the cupboard is stocked with this bad boy.

    I'm quite surprised to see people (me included) talking about it "still" being around...hasn't it been like 4 days that it has been out. This is great for Wormtown!

    I think this is what they were going for and they hit it. I liked it.

    I think it's great. It's the first coconut beer I've tried that actually tastes like coconut. It's not cloyingly sweet either..they definitely need to put some of this into barrels!! rum or bourbon would be killer

    Yeah maybe Wormtown should have gotten involved with that coconut IPA recreation that Stone did (and failed at) for some homebrewer.

    I disagree I got coconut right up front on R&R with tropical hops on the back end. I really liked it.
