Never had Ghost before today, but I'd personally compare it to Jucifer with a little less sweetness on the finish. Both fantastic brews.

It's in the warehouse but it's not being shipped to stores until after July 4th. They want to sell the crap beer for the July 4th sales. True story.

Feedback I got from Southern Eagle via third party was they were noncommittal on when it would be released and it could be a couple weeks.

Not sure how I feel about that but it certainly makes me a little pissed off and not wanting to go out of my way to find it when it does hit N.O.

They are releasing it to different markets at different times. It's not in a warehouse, it's in the fermenter at parish.

If they wanted instant GOAT status, they should have sent a few kegs and cases up to Barrett's Barleycorn for this week.

None at Habanos in Slidell, they weren't even aware of the new shipment. I got on their list.

Nothing at Rouses on Gause either
