Stone R&R Coconut IPA in AZ

FYI...unless you've been hiding under a rock the last week, you would've heard that this beer has NO COCONUT WHATSOEVER!!!!
None. zip. nadda. naught. zilch. zero. not even one little f'n bit.

/thread

 

no, its not everywhere. its not in Houston yet. :-/

 

Stone distros supposedly come on Thursdays, at least for Total Wine's. I would call around tomorrow and see if its finally here cause I was told that it should be this week.

 

Wasn't in Dallas. At Spec's anyway...

 

wow. this thread is getting cold....

 

Not as old as the IPA.

 

Oh great... an old Coconut IPA that doesn't taste like Coconuts. I'm farking excited...

BTW... where the is the w00tstout I was promised?! We've gotta be that last market to get it!

 

or the wootstout

no doubt we gotta be last. it will be well aged by the time we get it.

 

I was told by beer guy at Spec's that they are not sure TABC will approve the labels for w00t stout and suggested I find it elsewhere as it's just sitting in warehouse currently. Take that for what it's worth.

 

Weird, it's on TABC website as having been approved on July 12

 

He said they approved one, but bottles have 3 labels mixed in a case? He could be full of it also, but he said his buddy was sending some over to Cali because he didn't think it would happen and suggested I do the same.

 

I was told be a BEK rep yesterday in Plano that he expected to distribute it Monday or Tuesday. I was asking about XXV (he said it would be a while for that beer). He then brought up the wOOt stout being in next week. Take that for what it's worth!

 

All we can say at this point, If we do get it, it will already be well aged.

 

I know it has hit some places already. Expect it to start showing up today or tomorrow.

In Austin at least....

 

I picked up 3 bottle of Coconut up in Prescott yesterday so should be in PHX already? Good IPA but coconut definitely very subtle, which I guess is better than sun tan lotion.
