As I recall, COA had this and enjoyed it. I'd like to hear what you think as well.

Also, who ships beer to Ohio, or do you not live in Ohio?

I need to find someone willing to ship to Ohio. It's like a speakeasy ... only with stamps and boxes.

Yes, I'd definitely like to know who will ship beer in Ohio. I know a place that'll ship wine, but wine's not beer.

Well, have a friend buy it, in this case my mother, and then have that person go to the post office and pack it up.

If I knew what was available in other places, that'd be the likely option.

If you weren't three hours away, I'd kick you in the nuggets just for suggesting it.

I only found it because i tried it at a bar and then looked up where it was from. A friend of mine in Cali is sending me a bunch that I can't get over here.

I've gotten stuff from letspour.com free shipping, usually have a promo and they have a wide variety of beers, seems to change daily as well.

And they ship to Ohio? I didn't think any company would.

Taste more of yams than pumpkin IMO. I want a stronger pumpkin flavor, and I'm not a huge Brown ale fan. I find them boring and lacking taste. Outside of Brown Angel, the best brown ale I've had is still New Castle.

Post Road, Smuttynose, Schflys' (or however the [Ad Sense] its spelled) are phenomenal. I want something like that, yet all I can get is Shipyard, Punkin, or Blue Moon (BLEH sugary mess).

I had been under the impression that it was still illegal (it used to be), but it looks like that changed about a year and a half ago.

Yep they sure do ship to Ohio, i've used them a few times. Product takes about 5-7 days to arrive. I've gotten a couple shipments of beer and I did a wine shipment once for the wife.
They have a pretty good selection I think.

Pretty pricey for some 12 oz. beers!

That place is a rip, can find better deals online.

Place is much more reasonable. There are a bunch of places though.

That I don't know. I know others offer free shipping on orders over a certain dollar amount, good point on the shipping though.

Also anyone ever been to Fat Head's in North Olmsted? I'm looking to make the trip some time this weekend. First time home in a while.

Have a friend who has. He says it's nice, and not as busy as Thirsty Dog, Hoppin' Frog, or GLB.
