	I'm sure it's in this thread someplace but too lazy to check. Any idea as to who might have Hopslam? I know that The Kickstand restaurant on Central had a few bottles but outside of them.....

	Concur. Hopslam is gone. It wasn't was good this year IMO anyways. There are other superb IIPAS in the area too. I just drank HopCakes at Noda last night and it was awesome. I recommend making the trek there.

	Finally received my care package from Cigar City!! (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links) Jai Alai IPA (Very, very good stuff here) Ghost Stories (loved it) Humidor Series IPA aged on Spanish cedar. (unbelievably delicious) Cubano style espresso brown ale. (awesome) Humidor Series Double American Black Ale. I can see why Cigar City was voted the 4th best brewery in the world. It's too bad they don't distribute much outside of Florida. If your ever near Tampa you must stop by the brewery to try some of this amazing beer.

	Just picked up my first 6 pack of Dale's Pale Ale, can you believe it? Middle of the road hoppy for me. Gets better as I drink. Pours with a large head so I drank most out of them out of the can

And PKSPE, everything from Cigar City is great. Can't go wrong. It was Hunaphu release day on March 9th and I should have two bottles headed my way soon. I'm excited.

I am still an amatuer when it comes to the IPA's. Daniel turned me on to Dog 90 about 2 years ago...................thank goodness. And it has been a hoppy 2 years every since. I have a tough time drinking domestics now.

Anyone know about this one? Had one last night. It's a very well done stout. Google it if you haven't heard of it. (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links)

	Not exactly craft brew, but NBC news gave 30 seconds last night to tanks being offloaded from a cargo ship in Charleston (shipped from Germany) bound for the new Sierra Nevada brewery in Asheville. Judging from the size of the tanks, this new facility is going to be pretty large.
