Official SA Bishop's Barrel thread

Really? How long did Pumpkinator last in Houston? In San Antonio it's way easier to get BB than it was to get Pumpkinator. Hell I live in tiny New Braunfels, three stores carried it (Pumpkinator), and it lasted a bit over 24 hours.

 

I have to agree with Mycah. I would prefer it to come out as it's own limited release, instead of as part of the BB series. I find it easier to obtain if it isn't part of the BB series. I have only been able to get one of the 4 BB releases on my own. The first two I had to trade for and BB4 I have some good friends hooking me up.

 

All you "Need a BB1" folks should have come out to Guru when BB4 launched. They had 1 bottles for sale to go. Was limit 1, but I was happy to add one to my BB collection.

Oddly enough I have fewer BB4s than any other in the series...

 

To be fair, the time between the last two Divine Reserves was 7 months. Since the last one came out in February, it wasn't an unreasonable expectation to have another release within the 10 months before the end of the year. However, after looking at the time between each of the previous Divine Reserve releases, it's entirely impossible to predict when the next one will be released.

• Time between DR1 and DR2: 9 months
• Time between DR2 and DR3: 2 months
• Time between DR3 and DR4: 5 months
• Time between DR4 and DR5: 6 months
• Time between DR5 and DR6: 9 months
• Time between DR6 and DR7: 3 months
• Time between DR7 and DR8: 12 months
• Time between DR8 and DR9: 3 months
• Time between DR9 and DR10: 11 months
• Time between DR10 and DR11: 5 months
• Time between DR11 and DR12: 16 months
• Time between DR12 and DR13: 7 months

 

Even if Rumpkinator is it's own release, it'll still be hard as hell to get because it'll be super limited. It won't be like Pumpkinator where everybody and their mom can pick up a case of it at Spec's.

 

Once they caught up with the year is when they stopped doing 2 Divines a year. I don't see why they would fuck it up now. (DR 10 in 2010, DR11 in 2011, DR12 in 2012 ect)You never know what month in the year it will be but I doubt they ever do 2 divines in year now. I have no insides just my speculating.

 

D&T still has BB4s to go, at least as of Friday night.

 

I'm talking about the year they are released in more than anything. Now they are releasing once a year. Now I guess they could release it in January, but I doubt it.

 

I'm glad I'm not the only one to have noticed that - As corny as it sounds I like it better that way honestly lol

 

Send them an email and ask.

 

Stanley's had about a case when I was at JK on Saturday. Looks like those king for AR this weekend could get VM, AR and BB4 there.

13.88 for 2 after tax

 

^going, not king.
Mobile device misspellings.

 

Craft Pride still has a few...

Gotta drink 1 there to buy one to go. Wife wanted to drink one, so I picked up another to-go. $8, so not as good as Stanley's.

 

Hopefully Stanley's will still have some this weekend. I missed out and have a couple friends helping me out, but if I can find it on my own and let them keep their bottles it would be better.

 

Its a stretch but does anyone know of a place that has some BB4 to go still?

 

Gingerman still had it on Sunday, I think you can get it to go but not sure. They don't typically do beers to go, though I think I remember them doing 3 to go, but I could be wrong. Give em a call, it could not hurt. BRC might still have it as well.

 

I had one at Fat Bao on Friday. Not sure if they have them togo, but they had some in the fridge

 

Depends, where do you live?

 

Houston. Come on. Im one of the hoarders remember. You should remember I'm from Houston....

 

Thanks guys Ill check them out.
