    Just moved to New Orleans from Maine (ie yesterday), and thought I'd check in about the upcoming Bourbon County release.

    I've heard that they will be releasing BCBS on Black Friday to all states where legal, but nothing else. Does anyone know if BCBS, Coffee, Barleywine, or Backyard Rye will make it to New Orleans? Ever siince I had the pleasure of trying King Henry, I've been especially looking forward to the barleywine release.

    Any general info or ideas on where in NOLA these might be available would be greatly appreciated!

    From what I've heard, we will be getting at least BCBS. If you're in NOLA, I'm sure Stein's will get it and the pub will have it on tap. I'd say it's highly unlikely we get the Barleywine and Backyard Rye, but I'd think we would get some coffee.

    Ive heard there is a whole lot less coffee than barleywine, so i think wed get the later first before coffee.

    Read something yesterday that the Rye is a chicago only release along with the Proprietors bottle.

    Wait when did race get involved? :wink:
    Secondly,
    Chicago Black Friday is honestly gonna be the most ridiculous thing ever. Im envisioning a nuclear attack of people at Binny's at 7 am. I may have better luck in Nashville or Louisville the rest of the weekend. Either way I will get what I can manage.

    I hate I won't be down there before it's all snatched up. Looks like my BCBS source from last year dried up.

    Anyone know if anywhere else. I called whole foods and they had no idea what I was talking about.

    I should notify everyone that Elios Wine Warehouse got 1 case in. 1 4pk per person, and they had 2 left about a half hour ago.

    Anybody know if LA will ultimately get any of the variants?

    I heard a rumor that they "may" be coming.
