    ok ok i am actually trying to help a non ba friend find some few month old Hopslam for a very important customer of his.. Has anyone seen it still sitting on shelves somewhere in Metro Detroit area ? or did anyone buy too much and cant drink it fast enough ? any help would be huge thanks ! Dont ask me why he wants not fresh Hopslam ? I even offered him some fresh Heady or Pliny and he said he only wants Hopslam..

    You might want to check Finesse (12 mile and Schoenner). I haven't been there in a while, but stuff seems to sit for a long time there, last year they had Hopslam in the cooler for at least 6 months.

    The Olympia Club at Joe Louis Arena still had it on tap a few weeks ago. I was at their third-to-last home game against the Kings. Still tasted fine to me.

    If I wasn't a "fair-whether" hockey fan, I'd take offence to that. GO HAWKS!

    I hope the very important customer is not a BA, they may become a former customer if they get an old IPA :slight_smile:!

    No need to specify fair-whether when mentioning being a Hawks fan.

    hopslam actually seems to still be quite tasty even after many months.
