      Yep, hit here about a week ago, but I'm 20 minutes from Bell's front door. KBS drops at my local Sunday April 6th at noon. Apparently Founders pushed back to make sure it hits all at once, so every retailer that will have it should be dropping same time or face not getting another ticket for next batch. I shall be in line early.

        Haven't tried that one although I've had other Crispin ciders. Have you tried the Samuel Smith organic cider? It's my favorite summer "beer".

        Haven't tried the Samuel Smith, but I love about all of their beers. Can you find it locally?

          I really like the Sam smith pubs too. There is one by the river in Kingston. My brother had his wedding reception there… I got gloriously annihilated!

            I've had their Taddy Porter and wasn't too impressed with it. I haven't tried anything else due to disappointment after being sold on it by a friend

              Yeah, I get it all the time at Whole Foods, I'm sure other places have it as well.

                I've even seen the Sam Smith cider at Kroger.  I think you should be able to find it without much trouble.

                  One of the best ciders for dry palates like mine.

                  Think it, be it.

                            Nice, had a good run of luck with glasses in that way of late.

                              Love the jug… There's a Belgian saying that roughly translates into: "In heaven there's no beer, that's why we drink it here"...

                                That seems a very Belgian thought.  One I fully endorse…

                                  Pretty productive evening at the local bar– I've managed to score two Founders KBS stouts, a 2011 Founders Breakfast Stout, and a Perennial Abraxas stout. I now have a much bigger buzz than I should on a Wednesday evening, but a selection like this doesn't happen often.

                                      You want the Speedway? Or you got others in mind? Picking up tomorrow, could easily handle a request.

                                        I've no idea how realistic my list is though...

                                          Hopslam is unavailable now. KBS is what I am picking up, but what I can get will be limited, not sure how much. Willing to share if I can though. I like their standard Breakfast Stout, and their Curmudgeon (oak barrel ale) which are easier to come by. I can look for the others, and I think I have something you'll like if sweet woodsy and dark interests you.
