    Looks like this is confirmed and heading to IL as early as next week! 22’s & 750’s. Should be a jolly Christmas indeed!

    They announced distribution to Wisconsin, but haven't heard anything about Illinois. However, I am really hoping this is true.

    I visited the brewery back in October and talked to a few employees. They mentioned that the last details were being worked out for this.

    It's true.


    And it's not going to be in Chicago. Hah! Suck it, Chicago.

    To celebrate, I'm drinking this tonight

    No problem. I'm downstate and out in Rockford from time to time and out toward the Quad Cities (about once a year). I'll add that to AleSmith to my shopping list right next to Ballast Point.

    Edit: Did you buy that in Illinois already?

    Nope, I actually got this one in yesterday. I'm pretty sure that the distributor doesn't get up to Rockford, but they might.
