Woo-hoo!

Please move to another section of the forum if there is a more appropriate place.

Best. News. Ever.

Before we get too exicted ...

"A spokesperson with Founders Brewing confirmed that the company plans to expand distribution in parts of upstate New York next month"

Those three little words could be bad news for the Buffalo/NF area.

Upstate is pretty vague as in - "north of NYC", but Buffalo is the largest population outside of NYC and closest major NY State city to Michigan

It wouldn't surprise me to see them in Rochester/Syracuse before they were in Buffalo.

Contact in Albany says they've had their regular line up for about a month now. But not sure about any of their seasonals.

Albany is almost NYC. We need to see them in Buffalo or at worst Rochester.

This is great news. I'd like to get eithier bottles or a keg of Founder's Centennial IPA. Now if we could just get Bells in New York state, Haven't had Two Hearted in a couple of years and I'm down to one bottle of Bells Expedition stout

I am sure if they make it to NY state some of the more industrious bar owners will acquire them... whether they will have to go bottles at the stores I guess is another store.
