    As soon as they hit the Bell's General Store, you'll know.

    Anyone know if it will be hitting the full distribution footprint? Only state Bell's ships to that I'll be visiting any time soon is Wisconsin...

    It sounds like it will be distributed in all markets albeit very limited.

    I'm from out of town but am in Kalamazoo for the weekend. Can I ask: where did you get it? At the brewery?
    Thanks

    Head to Bell's, the General Store is where you want to be.

    I need bottles of this in my life. Time to up my number of visitations to my local bottle shops...

    Mr. Mayor, help out a (fairly) new Michigander--what size bottles? General price range I can expect?

    Standard 12oz bottles.

    Dunno about price. I recall it being 2.50 or 3.00 last year, but I may be off.

    I am not the mayor, and don't want to step shoes, but since he helped me out I thought I'd pass it on.
    12 oz bottles in sixes or cases. Six packs were just over 18 and a case was only sixty at the General Store. I am now wishing I just bought a case instead of my two sixes.

    All this limited talk is very discouraging. As someone who consistently supports Bells all year, actually drinking a Kalamazoo stout as I write this, I will be slightly upset if I can't get my hands on at least one. I live in SE MI and have spoken to a couple of my beer store guys and they don't sound too optimistic that they are going to be getting much or any at all. The oracle is my absolute favorite Bells beer and will be sad to see it come and go.
