    $10.50 for a four-pack here. $15 seems a little high, even with the higher Illinois tax rate.

    Shit, even Breakfast Stout is $11.99 out here.

    Thanks. Picked some up at the Woodman's in Men. Falls today. Consumer Beverage didn't have any yet.

    Anyone in Green Bay see it? The 2 cases Ridgeview Liquor got were sold out in under 24hours and I can't say I was expecting that. Was not able to make it there that quickly. I don't expect Festival Foods to have it, would Allouez Beer Depot or Woodman's get this potentially?

    IMO this batch needs to sit for a bit, whereas KBS was great from the start this year.

    Did anyone notice that their 4 pack had all plain black caps instead of founders normal bottles caps? Very odd but it still tastes awesome.

    Yeah I noticed it right away, too (and I think I saw it earlier or somewhere else). Not sure why but not a big deal. Maybe they ran out of their normal caps. Makes it easy to see in the cellar because I have nothing else with a plain black cap.

    I was in Woodman's in La Crosse, WI this morning and talking with the manager there and she said all special releases that come through general bev out of Madison such as founders will be released in Madison for 2 weeks before they come to La Crosse and we will only get some if there is any left. Pretty lame sauce.

    I called Star around 5:30pm yesterday asking if they had any. The girl working told me they didn't get their shipment of it yet.
