Those B:B:T went fast, I believe it was like 4 minutes.
The Floue and Jammy's are also going to be hard to land with them selling for$100+ a bottle on secondary markets.

That being said their Terrior Project bottles I walked in a couple days after release and picked up no problem! (Probably still available)

just my opinion but I don't think this Jammy will flip like batch 1 did. Wish I was in town I'd grab u some, Ben.

now B:B:T is a different story

No worries.

Who else is in New England and worships danky hops? My chilled stash:

That Strawberry Whale Cake from Burlington Beer was so good. Grabbed a few when I was up in Stowe this summer (along with a bunch of Heady, of course!)

They have a raspberry variant, as well as "Midnight Vultures" a creamy ale / IPA with pineapple and cherry. They certainly make some unique stuff!

Anyone going to FoBAB?

I couldn't remember the name, but Midnight Vulture was the other one I tried . . . it was certainly unique. Not sure I'd drink it again, but it wasn't bad at all.

Looks like Austin is only getting Bourbon County Regular, Orange, and Wheat Wine.

Big disappointment!

I'll never understand why they dont make a lot more variants. Give the people what they want

Some goodies from upstate and Maine

Wheatwine was great.... don't get down about that.

My top-down list of variants:
-Reserve... wow!
-Bramble was great... exactly what you would expect with this re-release.
-Wheatwine was great! If I liked this style more, this may have been at the top, or tied, with Reserve.
-Vanilla is very similar to VR, but without the slight amount of spicy Rye flavor.
-Prop was like a fancy dark chocolate bar, with a hint of dark cherry, and with no major WOW factor.
-50/50 Vanilla/Orange (Dreamsicle variant) fell somewhere between vanilla and orange.
-Coffee Barleywine was better than expected. I don't like this style either, but my buddy who does like this style, didn't like this.
-Orange was terrible... not a fan.

Nope - I went to FoBAB. Enjoyed some Chemtrailmix, FO, BA Mendhi, BA Henna, and like countless other amazing beers.

Hudson Valley makes some delicious brews

First year not actively searching for BCBS in the morning. Goes to show that beer just doesn't have the hype that it used to. Heck, I'm the first one to post about it tonight. My local shop was not allocated any cases due to the fact that they didn't sell enough Budweiser. Makes sense though, they are a "craft" beer shop and not your average liquor store. However, when I went to my local Ralph's to pick up some groceries, they had probably 10 cases out, limit 2, $9.99 ea. So I grabbed 2 just because.

On a better note, now that Russian River has their Windsor location open, we're seeing Blind Pig, STS Pils, and Happy Hops a lot more frequently.
