I have 3 reserved for myself from a local store to pick up tomorrow...cant wait..$15 each

I can't find this stuff around me, but I really want to try it. They have the all the Jack beers which I'll try. But, damnit.

When you picking up your Zombie Dust? I drank the last 2 cases I set aside for you. I just got another case bottled last week.

You should check Letspour or Craftshack -- they've been popping up, but you'd have to be quick. Where do you live?

Stop mocking me! Not all of us have fancy $10,000 a week day care providers! I barely have enough time to lament the lack of accessibility of certain gatorade flavors!

No, Faithfull was just a one time release. And you seriously missed absolutely nothing. It was on par with having a pabst or busch.

I think Hellhouund keeps coming around seasonally.

Yeah, I meant to add that but got distracted trying to think of beers shitty enough to compare to faithfull.

DFH put out a press release yesterday that more Hellhound is on the way very shortly.

DFH's American Beauty should be out pretty soon. Hopefully they do better by the Grateful Dead than they did PJ.

In other news... WNY finally gets Bells today with Two Hearted kicking things off. I'm excited to not have to wait for a PA trip to buy it. Plus, the weather's beautiful, Buffalo's Trader Joe's opens today just North of the city and PJ plays here tmrw. Good weekend to be in Buffalo.

Thanks for the advice. I'm in NJ. I'm going to put in a request for some with my local bev.

Have you tried this one? I didn't anticipate that I would like it either.

That's awesome man. Looks like you mixed it up pretty well. One of these years I'll make it.

I probably could have sampled more, but I got the hiccups after the mead. It severely hampered my ability to enjoy drinking, eating, or even talking. On the plus side, it probably saved me a headache the next day.
