Ballast Point in Florida?

[cmhicksusmc]

So having moved back to florida from hawaii I have been overwhelmed by the sheer selection of cigars, Booze, and Women (not necessarilly in that order)
but i have to yet to find any of my favorite west coast brew like Ballast Point. I didnt expect to find Maui brews but i atleast want some Sea Monster!

Any suggestions on where to look and im all ears. I live in Orlando but Travel to Tampa and Miami often. Why dont the tampa brothers get together soon?

I know this store carries a limited selection: Luekens Liquors

I'd also check out beeradvocate. May'be you can hit a couple stores in your travels and narrow down the good from the bad. Here's the link to their directory for Florida: Linky

In your travels, look for a place called Total Wine. They are a giant liquor store and they have a Micro brew isle where you just may find what you are looking for.

I refer to the Total Wine in Jacksonville as Mecca! It is as big as a Walmart with wall to wall beer/liquor/wine and has its own walk in humi.

Oh No that's terrible news mark. I love most all their brews. Have u talked to Pila? He can get just about anything.

I sure hope this isn't a sign of the brewery struggling. Keep me posted and I could offer u some suggestions LOL.
