You're always fuckerd up.

If that is the normal Rock Bottom IPA, it's very good. Really like it. It was my first IPA I had ever had, got me hooked.

Craft brands have flooded the market with new beers on an almost weekly basis. The activity is creating some fear that beer is becoming more like wine, in which styles are emphasized over branding. "There has to be a focus on building brands," said Bill Hackett, president of Crown Imports, whose brands include Corona.

Anyone care to send me a sixer of Rivertown Pumpkin? Is it really that good? I can't find it anywhere in NW Ohio. How much is it? I can pay through PayPal.

Yes it's really that good. I got some at Andersons in Maumee when I was up at my brothers wedding a few weeks ago.

I live an hour from Toledo. I was in Toledo last week, and should have looked for a place to pick some up. Shit.

Anyone care to take me up on that?

You may want to ask Curly about that. He's way more informed on Rivertown than I am. I don't know if they've made it that far north or east yet.

They are in some Toledo distributers. I've checked everywhere that I can think of in my area, and no Rivertown.

Best place is Marino's (thx Boris) on the corner of Alexis and Monroe.
Second best is the Maumee Anderson's
Third best is the Anderson's near the Mall on Monroe.

Good luck.

This didn't help, broseph.

Here I'm ready to ditch Keystone again, and none of you brothers are willing to help a guy out? :'(
