Yeah, the Double Wide IPA is readily available in bottles around here. Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure I had the farmhouse ale at a restaurant in Western MA a few months ago.

Yep. I think our last shipment was October. Guess that means I should e-mail them. They'll usually tell you when to expect the next batch in your area.

I think we're going to rent a place on Lake Winnipesaukee this summer, so we should be able to make it to Mt. Washington--if the kids let us get away with it. I'd like to get to Vermont in the fall, but that's not a good time of year for me.

Another place that was surprisingly great was Lake Placid. Lots of outdoor activities and Mirror Lake, which is right next to the actual Lake Placid, is great for kayaking and other unpowered watersports as it is fairly large and does not allow motorized boats in it.

Thanks for the email! The next shipment to Windy City (our Illinois distributor) will be the week of January 19th. We are planning to send a bit of Another One but it depends on what they want to take from us. So I would give them a ring on the 20th (as that is the day Another One is ready again) and see what they plan to be getting from us. I hope this helps - thanks for reaching out!

Spanky you can ignore this thread....

Anyone got an idea when Hopslam and Black Note Stout will be out this year?

I actually like Mo the best of their regular offerings, but it's annoying how often you'll find old bottles of it on the shelves compared to their IPAs.

I'd definitely recommend hitting up Allagash and Rising Tide also if you have time when you go to Portland. Novare Res is supposed to be a great beer bar as well.

Hopslam 2015: Shipping dates, events and other answers

Josh Smith | Bell's Brewery
01.08.2015
HopslamBottlingLine2015.jpgJanuary may be cold, but we have something to help warm you up on the inside - HOPSLAM!

Below are a few answers to some of the more commonly asked questions about our limited double IPA.

Q: Is there more this year?

A: We try to brew more every year, although it will still be limited.

Q: When/where will Hopslam be available?

A: As with all of our beers, that too will also depend on when our distributors from each area are able to pick it up at our brewery, then deliver it to its final destination. Hopslam will make its way to all states we currently distribute to including southern California (but only in Imperial and San Diego counties this year).

Here is how shipping schedules breakdown by state (please note, this is when shipping begins).

Week of Jan. 12: Michigan and Missouri

Week of Jan. 19: Virginia, Washington DC, North Carolina, Wisconsin, South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia, Pennsylvania and California

Week of Jan. 26: Florida, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, Ohio, New York, Puerto Rico and Arizona

Week of Feb. 2: Minnesota, North Dakota and Indiana

Not even really sure what a Beer Bottle Sharing event is but figured I would post it here.

A bottle sharing event is when everybody brings a bottle of something that is hard to find, or been aging behind the bar for a few years. You share your bottle with others, so everybody gets to try a bunch of different beers.

Union House in Winfield now does one every Saturday from open to close. Depending on how many people are participating when you are there, you get to try some good stuff.

I'm reading about grocery stores in Michigan receiving up to 120 cases of Hopslam this year, Spanky.

When you say grocery stores. Easy to find at a Meijer's? Easy enough to give a GF living in Detroit this as a no hassle errand?

I hate alchohol hunting in Chicago. It's the pits.

I had a friend in 6th grade who used to tell everybody that he had a GF in Florida

_________________

Yeah, Meijer would be the store.

Also, I've laid lots of girls in the Niagara Falls area.

Pedro: I like her bangs.

Napoleon: Me too.
