    I bought a bottle of Sucuba there for like 17.99 a few weeks ago and expected a bit of an upcharge, but 50 bucks is crazy....

    Fun fact. Kimbark liquors in Hyde Park had half a case left as of about 4pm today. Limit 1 @ $16.99. Also the Hyde Park Binnys had 4 Simco Ninja. Great day to shop Hyde Park! I sincerely hope they are both still available for someone reading this.

    Back in my day, about the best thing you could find at Kimbark Liquors was 99 Bananas. Now that got you drunk.

    And plenty sick the next morning.

    Here we go again. Did you move the Cherry Rye and CBS out of the way to grab your bottles?

    No.

    Instead, I'll go make a ISO:FT thread.

    Crazy talk. The past several years had it on tap at a shitload of places. Did FW make way less this year or something? I'm expecting it to make several appearances during craft beer week.

    Cases went from 3000 to 3500 I believe. I was surprised too because there are a handful of places in the burbs that got kegs last year & I assumed there would be many kegs in the city. However even the FW-related CCBW events that I've seen haven't listed Parabola, so perhaps he's right.

    Lush on Chicago Ave had a new case as of yesterday of Parabola. One beautiful box just chilling on the table for me. I thought I missed out on this year's batch!

    Oh you are mistaken my friend. I love me some Parabola so I'd like to get as much as possible.

    It's been pouring at Independence Tap on Irving Park for a few days. $5 for a tiny FW snifter which I believe is 5 oz.
