    I'm thinking each store will get a photocopy of a low-res snapshot of a half-empty bottle of Black Note, which they can then share with their best customers for $5.99 a glimpse.

    Is there a 1 glimpse limit?

    There is but it's per person, so if you bring along a mule, they can get a look at it too.

    I'll go to as many shops as needed to get a full 4 glimpse... hell I'll even stand outside Rays and play their stupid lottery game to get a 5th glimpse

    I'm going to sneak in sketchpad and try to hand-bottl...errr...hand draw the glimpse from memory. Hope I don't blink during my glimpse. :slight_frown:

    I heard 5 cases for the entire Madison area. Not a lot to go around. :slight_frown:

    120 bottles. It'd probably be enough if everyone picked up only one bottle and split it with one friend who missed out?

    Sounded pretty Commie, but oh well. Nobody wins here, I'd just trade KBS for it if you miss out.

    Bummer, especially with all the Oberon and Two Hearted we drink around these parts. One would think Bell's would throw us a bone with BN, oh well another year without trying this regional favorite.

    Not surprising at all.

    Ive had so many great beers in the years since I joined BA. I've easily acquired beers that are rare and highly sought after for whatever reason this beer always alludes me. I've never even seen a bottle in person.

    I'm not upset at all it just amazes me how I've never even come close to trying it in any form not even by accident lol.

    I'd call the Cedarburg location by you to see if they are even going to get any. Or that good old Pig Wig.

    The pig is a no go. I'll see what's up at Otto's though thanks. Have you had it? Is it worth the trouble? I love expedition stout and the dbl cream stout especially the former.

    Such bullshit on Bells part. If they can't produce enough to let stores sell 4packs, why bother distributing it at all.

    I'm cool with that, then the General Store would have had cases for a week instead of 3 days.

    It is tasty. But I wouldn't hold it next to KBS or bourbon county , granted they are different. I dont really get the hype personally.

    Agreed. While good, I think the hype train takes hold of this one.
