Ohio is actually not too bad. Sometimes you just have to request what you want. They have plenty of FRSB here, as well as single barrel and yellow label too!

Re: Sad day in Iowa no more FRSB
I've heard very similar head-scratching stories about the state from some of the owners/operators of the larger liquor stores in Iowa. If it's not fruity or sweet, forget about it.
Cyclone still had a pretty good supply the last time I was in there. If any fellow Iowans need a bottle, PM me and I can pick one up for you the next time I make a stop.

Re: Sad day in Iowa no more FRSB
Maybe if Paul had purchased less WT81, and more FRSB...
In all seriousness, that is a damn shame.
