Against the Grain - Bo and Luke

Hope it goes to bottle well. Loved new albanian beers, but their first couple bottlings were a disaster. hoping AGT does it well cuz its an amazing beer off the tap.

 

Dammit ATG, how is this beer supposed to be a .rar whale that I can pimp out as the next big thing if you release 400 cases!?

It's a delicious barrel aged stout, you're not doing this right!

 

I hope a few cases make their way up to Northern KY. I bought a growler of Bo & Luke a while back and it was stellar. When I bought it, I asked the guy running the growler station to make me a mixed sample of Bo & Luke and Founders Breakfast Stout. Very nice, although the coffee flavor in the FBS kind of overpowered it a little.

 

I've had this beer a few times, and I would gladly buy a couple bombers. 400 cases is not an enormous amount, but hopefully we'll get a decent amount in Lexington for purchase.

 

ISO: Bo & Luke futures, case x2

Anyone know when the release is planned for? I'll gladly drive to Louisville.

 

Really hoping to trade for a bottle. Loved it on draft at Local Option.

 

There are way less than 400 cases, and this will see statewide distribution in the next couple weeks.

 

Spoke with staff there, and as per the video above, they confirmed they are in the process of being bottled as of 6/29/13, but they do not know (or won't share) when the bottles will be on shelves.

 

I have been ISO this beer for a while.

 

Source for that? Brewpub told me the majority were going to Chicago and they are only releasing bottles through louisville beer store downtown, date unknown for now.

 

He is the source...he is the distributor.

 

If the majority are going to chicago, that kinda sucks. So much for some hometown love.

 

That's a pretty damn good source then. Hard to tell sometimes who is who. Anyway, hope decent yields come to louisville either way, just was at atg last night and that's what I was told. I'm excited for it, got a growler last time it was on tap and loved it.

 

I'm just glad we can finally have arguments like this about a KY beer release. Brings a tear to my eye. :')

 

So, it's Louisville only? The thread was a bit confusing.

 

As in Louisville will be the only city in KY who will get it possibly.

 

Statewide. Rest easy, Lexingtonians.

I'm hoping to find someone who would like to trade or work out something for a couple bottles. Shoot me a message if you'd be interested in working something out.
