On a somewhat related note, my understanding is that a good number of addicts/mentally ill/unhoused people/etc are originally from the burbs and often their issues began while still living in the burbs (for example they first became addicted while living in the burbs). If so, then suburbanites are often exporting their problems (drug addiction/mental illness/etc) to our city. And then many of these suburbanites point their fingers at us and say that our city is a shithole for having to actually deal with these problems rather than export them elsewhere.

Lock the guy up. Color doesn’t matter. Age doesn’t matter. Socioeconomic status doesn’t matter. Where they’re from doesn’t matter. Still the same answer.

The good thing is this guy was caught. The tragic thing is an officer was killed. It doesn’t fit the acab narrative either but I am sure people who believe that also believe this guy deserves to be in prison. If it was caught on camera like people have said, that makes it much more likely and thats a good thing.

Allocations for limited product aren't usually announced or promoted this far out. Accounts might have been notified and put orders in, but a month or so ahead would be a long lead time.

Any place that had/has Pliny the Elder is likely on or had access to the allocation list. Elder is also very limited release. So places that had access to that stand a decent chance of having other hard to get RR beers on tap.

The wrinkle is that apparently a lot more places in Philly got Pliny the Elder this year, and quite a lot of them fairly late in the game. With a lot of places having it on tap longer and getting more kegs than usual.

RR either over produced, or undersold it. Probably due to COVID issues. And opted to send a bunch of the overage to the Philly market.

That might mean a lot more Pliny the Younger out in the wild this year. Or it might mean that a bunch of places that got their other limited releases don't have access to Younger.
