I am leaving Saturday morning for Burlington. I am going to assess the situation (available quantity and cost) when I get there and I will post here. I don't know what it comes in (4/6/12 packs) as I have only had people get me a few cans at a time in the past.

Nebe, I fish the RI shore pretty regularly, I'm sure we can arrange something that doesn't require postage.

Does anyone have some answers to the logistical stuff I posted here? How much is it, how many come to a "pack", how is the availability in the fall?

I should be able to get a bunch, but I want to keep expectations in check until I know there is a bunch to be "got"

Maybe I'll shoot a note to the brewery.

I am hearing it is priced about $3.50 per can, but you can get cases. The most important logistic may be that they can on Monday and Thursday, and so you may want to be there first thing on Tuesday or Friday. There are also some stores about VT that will have some, a list of which are at the Alchemist web site.

According to their site, the 4 pack/16 oz. cans are $12. According to their FB updates, Sat. afternoons are bad .

It's 12.99 for a 4 pack of 1 pint cans or 72 bucks for a case of 24...not including tax.

I think availability is really hit or miss. They were out early this week, started canning Thursday and were out by 3pm Friday. I'd like them on FB as they seem to update their beer production there.

Fortunately a business meeting this week had me at a hotel about a mile down the road. Nobody seemed to mind as I slipped out for a quick conference call

I picked up some extra if anyone local to East Bay, RI is interested. It's not the holy grail but is certainly damn good beer.

Got my order in already!
