Does this happen because they are waiting for the shelves to clear of existing inventory? Or is it because CCD is just that bad?



It's both, I believe. They receive old arse product and then it just turds away because nobody wants old arse IPAs. Except for Martini, I guess

Old product will always sit on the shelves because the distributors have a strict no buy back policy. Some of the breweries will pay for it out of their pocket, like New Belgium and some of the smaller local guys. It just depends.

I thought some IPAs age? Is Bells not one of them?
This whole freshness thing is confusing.

If this is the case, then CCD is not totally to blame. If they get fresh product and let it sit in a warehouse somewhere while waiting for the shelf turds to move, then I blame the distributor.

I'm guessing Crescent Crown is in charge of Oskar Blues. Talk about shelf turds. I still see some Pinner IPA with a date of May 2015 on the shelves.
