    Odd, since I bought two 4-packs there on Tuesday. I think they got it in that morning and were sold out by 8:00pm that night, so maybe she just wasn't working that day and missed the shipment entirely.

    Seeing lots of it in South and West burbs. Lots easier to find than last year. I've got my stash that should last the winter.

    Places I've been to in Chicago are breaking them up and selling them per bottle. Any spot in Chicago selling them as 4 packs?

    It's all relative. The store where I bought two 4 packs last year was already sold out when I called an hour ago. But I was able to get the single 4 pack I was looking for this year from its sister store, so alles gut.

    Sorry, I meant this year. Last year I only saw single bottles.

    Weird. I never got an email saying they got it in. Usually they're pretty good about e-mailing new releases.

    Very weird then, I just happened to be driving by and stopped in.

    I just got a notice that Founders just released this today. I'd like to see comments from those who have tried this particular brew. Worthwhile?

    Nope. Reviews state that as well.
