    Does anyone even sell this in six packs anymore? The first time I bought I managed to score a sixer. Now it's 2 bottle limits everywhere.

    At best some places only got 4 cases, some TW got half that. I like it better than Hopslam personally , about the same pricing point

    Bells had a case limit. $60 plus deposit
    As I was walking in to buy mine, a guy dropped his case in the parking lot, busting some.
    I would have taken a picture, but I felt bad for him.

    I'll say I personally find this year's batch to be the best yet IMO.

    I picked up some at TW in Newport News. The funny thing is that VA Beach isn't getting any nor Grape and Gourmet.

    Managed to get 1 bottle. Why is this beer so rare? It's not like it's a one time batch special beer like the Founders Backstage Series. It also isn't even barrel aged. Do they just not want to make the beer?

    Was able to pick up 1 bottle from a store near me. They only got one case and had a 1 bottle per customer limit.

    Yep, got a single bottle - seems most accounts around here got a single case.

    My beer place(undisclosed) got one case and saved me a few bottles (as well as a Stone Enjoy By 9/13/13). They will be getting even more loyalty.........and money!!

    I was told today the entire state of GA only got 74 cases. The rep for my normal bottle shop didn't get allocated any for his territory. It must have gone mostly to the Atlanta area.
