    Why were we looking for this beer again? I see potential in a pair of years for this beer but it is those awkward teenage years right now where it's trying to act grown up but its voice keeps cracking and all of its advances are sloppy.

    Do you mean they should try again in 2 years? Or that you think stashing it in the cellar for a couple of years would help?

    I'm having Deja Vue... I came in after you guys and received the last bottle allowed to us pesky internet ppl. She said the only reason she let me buy this one is because I called in advance and drove up from Tacoma. She said the rest were for her regulars because it wouldn't be fair if they didn't give the ppl w/o internet a chance to buy it...

    Definitely needs something... Was a boozy mess IMO, my friend also got a bottle and offered to share. I declined.

    Definitely lay it away for a year or two if you can. It has some potential down the line.

    Just picked up my bottle. Did I pay too much though? 19.99 + tax.

    I think I paid around $16.50 for one bottle and $18 for the other. Plus tax of course.

    Thanks for the info. Would you say this was harder to come by than Peche N Brett?

    For me it was about the same. Both took diligence, timing, and good luck.

    I've seen it for $23

    EDIT: Sry, meant to quote sukwonee on the $19.99 price tag

    It was harder then Peche for me. I could have grabbed alot of bottles from different places and Peche is still available at Engine House No. 9, if your near Tacoma, WA.

    It's all relative. They were all easy to find in the south (Oly and Tacoma) and ephemeral in Seattle area.

    Only considering the first release of PnB, BA Bigfoot was a lot harder to find in PDX, imo. Mainly because the distribution of PnB was sporadic. It hit and sold out one day at Beermongers and was still hitting grocery stores 2 weeks later. BA Bigfoot on the other hand, hit all in the same week and sold out in that same time.

    And now theres the second wave of PnB making the rounds

    Id be extremely surprised if there was some BA Bigfoot hanging out in PDX (other than in BA cellars :wink: )

    If anyone in Seattle is still looking for this, Crown Hill/Holman Road QFC has three bottles sitting out, $15.
