By the time you read this it may be too late! Hopefully the rush to get
Heady Topper, one of the most sought after DIPAs, isn't so frantic that all those selling the canned elixir from Vermont's
The Alchemist Pub & Brewery aren't already staring at empty shelves. This is the first and possibly the only time Philadelphia will get Heady. The current distribution in the Philly market is due to extra production. Look at it as a bit of a tease. For now once it's gone, it's gone. Here is more from the source (The Alchemist website)
Now that mud season is among us, I am happy to say that we finally have some extra product to send out of Vermont. Over the course of the next 8 weeks, we plan to make shipments to Philadelphia, Boston and NYC. We wanted to attend Philadelphia Beer Week in June, but realized that we will not have enough product to send out of state once summer is upon us.
So, we will have Heady Topper available in Philadelphia within the next 2 weeks. Origlio is helping us with this shipment; we hope to have a link on our website listing retailers as soon as possible. I do know that our friends Tom and Peggy, at Earth, Bread and Brewery will be having some sort of event with Heady. Wish we could make it! They are a lot of fun.
The event mentioned at
Earth Bread + Brewery happens tomorrow night (4/19). They will be pouring Heady from cans and offering free can cozies while they last. I'd expect a few people to show for this little gathering. Remember keep your elbows in and no crowding the bar. Cheers!

I suspect it won't be the only time but it may be the only time this year. If they have excess now, they'll probably have excess at the same time next year. Guess we'll see though.
