No word on when they'll make a decision about whether on not to offer the beer nationwide, but I wouldn't expect to see it outside those areas before 2011, probably the second quarter of next year at the earliest.
I was about to fly to NYC for a couple of 6 packs and called Diageo to confirm this was true. Unfortunately, a rep said they are not testing it.
