    Any idea on when this is showing up? I have looked but can't find anything on it

    Just saw it posted that a few sites in PA have it - for ~$19/bottle. Not sure I can pull the trigger at that price when KBS and Parabola are coming out in the next month

    I don't think Uncle Jacob's is available in NJ. According to the people at the Avery table at EBF last year NJ doesn't sell enough Avery beers to get an allocation... however with their other BA beers hitting shelves, I'm not sure if this has changed or not.

    It wasn't listed on great brewers website for distribution this week. And they are pretty accurate. Maybe it will be for next week. I'll post if I see anything

    Thats a bit steep. I enjoyed tweak even at its $11.50 price tag. But I think I may only get 1 if its going to be that high

    Got a bottle on Long Island for $15 tonight. If it shows up in NJ should be any day.

    Also saw BA Bigfoot. That was one expensive trip.

    Holy shit is all I have to say about this beer. I wish this beer was cheaper cause I would stock up on a ton of bottles. Such a great BA Stout.

    IMO better than BCBS and I love BCBS.

    Saw it for $14.99

    I loved Tweak, but at that price it's hard to justify.

    If you're looking for it and want to set up an IP trade I have enough to set something up.

    The craft beer outlet in Philly posted that they just got it in today as well as DFH120.

    I may be wrong but I don't think Uncle Jacob's base beer is Tweak, especially since Tweak is already a variation of a base beer.

    Tweak was very good for a non-BA stout. Uncle Jacobs was world class for a BA stout, IMO, besides the price.

    Tweak is Avery Mephistopheles Imperial Stout, with coffee aged in four months in bourbon barrels

    I'm confused. Tweak is a Bourbon-Aged stout..... but with coffee.

    Thats why I said I may be wrong, cause indeed I was wrong.

    No more confusion, carry on.

    Just talked to my beer guy who discussed this with the distributor. Apparently its NOT coming to NJ. Sucks considering Mephistopheles and Tweak both got here. Oh well.

    If anyone in NJ is looking for a bottle or two let me know and we could set up a trade.

    Caved in and put in a big order with Craft Beer Kings tonight and bought this along with a 2014 Sucaba among other things. The shipping costs suck but at least it allows me access to things I'll never see in NJ or just can't get quickly enough if we are lucky to get it. I think CBK has one more in stock on line if anyone is interested but you need to buy 30 bucks worth of beer to be able to purchase it. I believe it is going for 15.99/bottle.
