WTB: Jac Pac
Does anyone have one of these systems they would be willing to part with? I missed the big sale last year and it doesn't look like CT carries them anymore.
"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.

I have to make a run to CT this afternoon, so I'll take a look here in Amherst and see if there's anything left on the shelf or in the store room.LiverDance wrote:Thanks guys, I got someone working on that one in Sydney but no word yet.

Re: WTB: Jac Pac
I know Chalmers' didn't have any luck, anybody else have any luck?
From what i gather, there's still some left in stores. With them fully discontinued, they're not showing on the inventory by the looks of things, as i found two at one store(had called around earlier and zero in the maritimes apparently). Weird part, they're back up to reg price for the two i found...lol. I might take my receipt for one i bought, and see if they'll price match to get rid of the two...might be an idea.
