    13.50 at Capones I think.

    I just cracked an ice cold one and I think it might be better than last year. I was waiting to be disappointed and I was pleasantly surprised.

    Yeah Malvern had a ton too and for an extended period of time. I don't even bother trying to track down a case since I can just stop and get it there for at least a month or two.

    Anyone know when Shangy's is suppose to get hopslam this year? Have not seen anything posted yet.

    Agreed. What we should be expecting is they are now dialed in pretty well in Hershey and this is an aromatic beast of hoppy goodness. Can't wait.

    Drinking like the batch from 3 years ago, the mango sweet side is back and the hops compliment but do not over power it.

    I have two from last year and just cracked one open. Decent, but if you've had it fresh its no comparison. No nose left and definitely faded. Can't wait for friends to send me some of this year's batch!

    That must have tasted horrible.

    I don't remember what last year's batch tasted like, but this year's is superb. Huge grapefruit punch in the face. Love it.

    I am going to stop and check at Wegmans on my way home tomorrow. That would be awesome if they have it I need some for the weekend!

    Not as hoppy as last year.

    Just kidding, I haven't tried it. Just always wanted to say it :stuck_out_tongue:

Friend just got a kegerator for Christmas so he will hopefully be putting on a 1/6 keg soon!!! Whooo!! Life is good!! :stuck_out_tongue:

    My keg is on order........anxiously awaiting delivery. Still, I probably will buy some bottles to fill my NN tooth until draft comes in.

    I'm getting really, really excited from the early recon reports!
