    Found some four packs while on vacation at Myrtle Beach. So stoked since I struck out at home in NC. Gotta love that Piggy Wiggy at Market Common.

    It is fantastic, I had it for the first time this year. Definitely picking a pack up every year now.

    Single greatest grocery store on the planet! I've never spent so much time and money in a grocery store in my life. All of it in the craft section.

    I'm jealous of you guys finding FBB for $11 or $12 per four pack. I'm lucky in that I have a lot of places that has FBB near me. I was at a store yesterday that had at least 6 cases of it. Unfortunately, it's priced at $14 to $17 everywhere I look. The first time I find it for $12 per four pack, I'm taking a case if I can get it. FBB may be more difficult to find next year.

    I was afraid I missed this but many Minnesota stores are getting/have it back in stock. Picked up 3 four packs over the weekend :slight_smile: Great weekend!

    A few places here in town were selling it for $5 a bottle when it first showed up a few weeks ago, then it was down to $15 a 4 pk. This weekend I found it for $10. Glad I didn't pay the per bottle price when it first landed!

    Same here. At first I wondered if it was worth $12.99/4-pack but it totally is. I want more.

    I paid around $83 for my case in Philly. Feeling like I got ripped off after reading this thread... Anyway I love this beer so I'm just glad I found it.

    honestly its pretty funny how this is some what easy to get compared to KBS.....after having both this year i'd put backwoods over kbs. love the overall taste and barrel character in backwoods....kbs was just lacking for a BA stout IMHO. and yes i'm aware that they're both different styles....but people bend over backwards (no pun intended) :wink: to get a few kbs and i really don't think its worth it

    Wegmans and my local bottle shop had some a few weeks ago in Philly. Probably not far from you.

    Agreed this is much better than KBS, then again many of Founders brews are.

    Totally disagree. As does nearly every reviewer on here. Also, KBS and Backwoods aren't even remotely the same beer.

    Which Wegmans near Philly? I've been to Warrington and Montgomerville and no luck. Would love to find some in the Bucks county area.

    Mmm.. Got another 4 pack today.. 1 case, and another 1/3rd of it so far.

    First 4 pack though that I got that had the actual founders bottle caps on it and not the black ones like harvest ale had.

    Hate to see the prices some pay.. Most I paid for any of it was $11.99 a 4 pack, and all the way down to $10 a pack for most of it around here.

    This is crazy. Bought 3 packs a few weeks ago @ $12/4pack....I went back this weekend to a 2 single limit @ $3.50/ bottle! WTF Total Wine?
