The only thing you might be missing out on is my favorite, Double Cream Stout which is seasonal.
It's usually available in winter and into spring only, but says that it has a twelve month shelf life, so if you're lucky enough to find this gem while you're there, I'd IMPLORE you to try my favorite beer from my favorite American brewery.

Double Cream Stout derives its name from its smooth, creamy texture, not the ingredients. Completely dairy-free, this stout blends ten different specialty malts to yield a remarkable depth of flavor. With only a touch of burnt notes, Double Cream Stout focuses on the softer, cocoa & espresso-like aspects of roasted malt.

Degas-I will be traveling across the entire state from the west coast to the east coast, passing through a lot of small towns, so I'll check on that. It was one that caught my eye when I was trolling Bell's website, which is really professionally done. They note that they can't ship beer to consumers by Michigan law, but it doesn't mean I can't.

I have a friend driving back to Louisiana from Minnesota today. Hopefully she can find some for me and bring it back. Can't wait to try it.

FYI YOU CAN GET THIS STUFF IN DESTIN!!!!
It so simple guys. They carry 99% of Bell's releases in Destin.

Probably don't even have to go that far, they distribute to Alabama.
You might not be able to get the full line there, though.

I loved this one.

FYI for those passing through the Mobile area:
As of today, Fresh Market has Amber, Oberon, Oarsman Ale, Two-hearted, and Pale Ale. Im pretty sure any Winn-Dixie has a large selection of Great Divide brews; they also have a 12 pack sampler of Brewers' Picks for $20. If you want Brewery Ommegang you'll have to hit up Cottage Hill Package store in West Mobile. They have one of the best beer selections in Mobile and fill growlers with 6 or 7 rotating tap selections. I highly recommend checking them out if you find yourself in that neck of the woods. According to Publix website they have stores in Fairhope, Gulf Shores (Colonial Promenade At Craft Farms) and Orange Beach (The Shoppes at Palm Pointe), but im not 100% what brews they carry.

grab some weyerbacher and smuttynose while you are there. Also if Cigar City has made it into the pan handle...get some.

Ok, so far I've picked up:
Oberon
Oarsmen
Amber
Dopplebock
Porter
Kalmazoo
Batch 10,000
Goose Island Maltida
Goose Island 312
Drank a buttload of Oberon on tap so far. Awesome. Headed for the eastern side of the state-what else should I grab?

Girlfriend is on her way back from Pensacola and she happened upon a sixer of this while she was there. I am pumped to give it a shot.

Fantastic breweries. Have not had their stuff in so long I had almost forgotten about them.

The only problem there is you can't find hopslam anywhere
If heard tales of people's quests for Hopslam, on par with the search for the Fountain of Youth.
