    I wouldnt exactly expect for that to happen again...that was a happy accident.

    On a side note, that stacking aisle is no longer there as of yesterday...there's now another row of beer shelves :wink:

    Sooooo besides the Binnys which are most definitely sold out, has Parabola or Wookey Jack hit the shelves in Chicago yet?

    My brother and I happened to walk into Vav's store on the day last fall that the glorious stack was sitting out. We were on our way to a late-season White Sox game with about 3,000 of our closest friends at the end of a disappointing season. Picking up a few Parabolas and posting their availability on BA for the rest of you made our day. (And yes, I think the Sox lost.)

    Nope, I just don't get worked up about one store denying me beer. There are literally hundreds of stores in Chicago-land area that get beer in...

    Binny's in Des Plaines has had tons of XV on the shelf and on the floor. I haven't been there in over a week, but it has been there forever

    This thread needs re-upping. Still no sightings, right?

    Somewhere on these forums I read 3rd week of May. So my quest for Parabola shifts into overdrive next week

    Sweet. I'll be able to hit this up right at 3 since I'll be "working" from "home" thanks to the NATO protests!

    Just to be clear, this is only a fantastic tap takeover. This does not coincide, at least not officially, of the release of Wooky or Parabola in Chicago. It will hit the shelves in May though, according to several FW employees.
