    Anyone know if the Specs Smith Cellar will be considerably marked up or are we talking Black Friday kind of deals?

    I will be there at 8AM. If that's not early enough I'm SOL. And what are these "other goodies" I'm hearing mentioned in hushed tones?

    You realize that's not just aimed at beer nerds, right?

    Wowsers... I don't have enough money to buy everything I would want there on Friday anyway..... having our daughter on December 1 was a bad, bad idea. Birthday, followed by Christmas for her and the boy.. poor planning on our part.

    FYI for people interested - D&Q had at least 6 cases of 512 five on the floor when I swung thru there today at 1.

    and when I was at heights kroger at 4:30ish, there was 4 cases of 2013 pumpkinator and 3 cases of FUN 007 on the floor... without any limits (as I couldn't see rosendo anywhere)...

    after grabbing two bottles of the 512 today, i'm going to avoid specs friday.... i hate lines.

    well, from where i am sitting right now at my kitchen table i could probably hit the kroger with a rock (if i didn't throw like a girl).... so yea, one of his better customers, and i got a little hosed on his BwB supply, as I was hounding him about it and then wound up being out of town when he put it on out...

    so I'll get some of his BCBS stash... and I'll let this place know when he gets it so y'all can hound him... :wink:

    Two bottles? As in 2 12oz or two bombers? Thought it was two 4 packs of 12oz.

    I don't think they have had bombers of regular Bourbon County since 09. I could be wrong. Stores near my parents house in Illinois will have 1 bottle limits. Distro for this thing is all wacky.

    Oh, and to the people that complain about favoritism at stores have to hate D&Q right? Give me a brake with that. Every store shows favoritism. Especially if you are only there once for that one rare hyped realease.
