    i disagree. and will continue to purchase and enjoy the best. im not mad at anything, you can bet one thing the owners of GI who "sold out" did so for the money. and as a consumer, i will continue to demand the best beer for the money. i also want the best food, entertainment, company, etc. i want the best of everything, why shouldnt i?
    i am not a beer snob, geek, or whatever you may consider yourself. i am a beer drinker who drinks craft beer for no other reason than because it tastes good and because i want to. i hate budweiser and always have, because i dont like the taste. not because some huge corporation makes it. i just located my one kbs, ill go after work and waste my 10 bucks. because i am a CONSUMER, not a critic.

    why does someone have to be considered "angry" when they have a dissenting opinion than yours? why dont you stick to your own comments and stop worrying about what others say?

    Local Total Wine was dishing KBS out in singles so I stopped by the last two days and got my two bottles. Too much effort to chase this stuff down. I'm done and fine with two.

    How much did they get for it to last two days??

    I am one bottle away from completing my elusive four pack....just a little more work.

    It was this line: "I'm sick and tired of this limited production and distribution bullshit." I guess my interpretation of what constitutes anger is different than yours.

    Additionally, to your post above. That's cool with me. Buy what you want to buy and do it for whatever reasons you see fit. I take no issue with that nor do I expect anyone to take issue with my purchasing decisions. I was merely offering a little information that I thought might put a new perspective on the matter for you. If you call that being a critic, so be it. I think it is more about being an educated consumer than anything else. Different strokes for different folks.

    Anyone know if this has hit anywhere in central/north Jersey yet? I am on 2 lists, but one said it will likely be a 1-2 bottle limit, and the other one said likely a 1 bottle limit and I might not even be early enough on the list to get any... I've called/visited a few other places that said they won't have lists and it will be first come first served, but those places are 30+min drives in opposite directions, so I'm trying to get an idea as to who might have gotten it so far or might be getting it soon (today or tomorrow)...

    Was able to get 5 bottles - which I feel pretty good about since apparently only 50 cases made it to NC. They're in the fridge now, waiting for me at home. I might hold onto one for a little while - I drank my last 2012 this past Friday and while there was some fading, it was still damn tasty. I like the idea of saving one bottle to enjoy just before the next comes out.

    That's a good question, why expand your distribution when people are fighting over your beers in markets you already are in. :stuck_out_tongue:

    Strike 3. I will enjoy the rarity when I somehow land one mid-summer or late fall. For now, I will enjoy the fact that I live close to Vermont.

    That I don't know. The manager last night did say they will probably sell out that night or today sometime. I still have some from last year so I'm good. Too much beer anyway.

    Welp....no four pack for me. Managed three bottles across multiple stores. I guess I can take solace in the fact I only managed two bottles last year.

    What part of VA?

    Man, gotta admit, real jealous of seeing people from CONNECTICUT landing cases. I just wanted to drink a bottle over my spring break. :angry:

    You live close to VT, therefore you can get anything you want! lol! All you need to do is bring back 1 big haul from VT and you can trade for ANYTHING! KBS should be ezpz to acquire for you!

    I think I am the only one from ct on this topic that landed a case and it was a very weird/lucky circumstance. I hope you get one. Most stores here got one or two cases max.
