noble grape usually has some. I have a small amount at the house too if you want it, maybe 220g.
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Can't remember where I got it to be honest. Likely from an online shop. I've got a couple pounds here as well, though not sure when I'll be on the Island next.

Both Noble Grape and Brewers Pantry carry it.

They've had the II the past couple of times that I was there, but not the III. Looks like brewers pantry it is. Thanks.

I called NG looking for Carafa a little while ago and was told they only had it in for the Schwarzbier competition and didn't have any at any of the stores now. Might order some from Brewers Pantry though.
