    Well thank you kind sir. My hunt is now over. I called and the guy mistook me for someone else, he forgot who called him about it earlier. Whoever called earlier asked them to hold a case (I think that's what he said) and I could have easily said yeah this is me from earlier :slight_smile: but he had 3 left so I just asked him to hold those. Otherwise there aren't anymore on the floor. Pose as the guy who lurked kmello69 's post and you got yourself some Parabola. This is why lurkers should give props when they're due.

    Thanks a ton, kmello! I grabbed two more bottles. Now I don't have to worry about getting a ton on Monday, when I'm busy :slight_smile:.

    So, what's the status of Parabola and Austin?

    as far as I know, general release is still supposed to happen starting Monday. Some HEB's somehow got it early and released it today and yesterday, though. Apparently?

    And like Sam said, 40-45 cases, not 60. I wonder if the cases popping up at at least two HEBs are from those missing ones... in either case, I wonder where the rest went.

    There's going to be plenty of Parabola to go around...not even close to the madness that was the KBS release. It's also $15 plus a bottle so that's going to scare a lot more people away than a $6 KBS (or $13 if you shop at Hamrick's)...

    I have a fair amount of Parabola this year, I would trade straight up for a Sucaba or maybe a KBS plus another 12oz of something

    That might not be a bad deal for those who can't get any! I'm really eager to try Parabola... Sucaba is flat out superlative. So, so good.

    Glad to hear you guys were able to get some. Always good to share info.

    I know that all of the Specs in Austin will be getting some starting on Monday, so it should be an easier get for people. Enjoy!

    are they also doing a bottle limit per person?

    Probably depends on how many cases each store gets, but I'd imagine 1-2 bottles

    Triple what Sam said and you're in the ballpark.

    Does anyone know if the HEB at McNeil/Parmer got any?

    As of yesterday I stopped by and they didn't. I would imagine they will soon.
