Goose Island Bourbon County Stout VT Sightings?

Yeah, talked to the Bevy yesterday and was told next week (no idea on quantities). Just called Pearl Street, and got a really weird response. The lady seemed very confused, yet like she knew something and wasn't disclosing it. She said they were looking into it, and to call back later. Was just about to make some other phone calls, but I cant imagine if neither of these two have it yet, smaller stores likely wont either? Im guessing it just might not have made it up here yet?

 

Once it's in stock how fast will BCBS sell out?

 

sounds like we need a weekend bottle share to drown our sorrows! who's in?

 

Pearl St posted on FB that BCBS was in, and that there is a lmit, but did not say what the limit is.

 

Just called Pearl St again...just the regular, 4pk limit, 28.99 per. Fuckers, could have just given me that info an hour ago, was obvious they had the info, just didn't want to give it out. Just another reason the Bevy is head and shoulders above that place (imo of course).

 

Is it that hard to drive to the store and find out? Perhaps the employee at the store that makes all their money selling 30 racks and cheap vodka just didn't know?

Lol at the bevy being head and shoulders above anything, everything about that place sucks unless you like waiting in lines for Heady and needing to be on a list to get stuff.

 

I walk into the Bevy every wednesday night (tuesdays now), at around 630, and grab my 4pk every week, no line, no hassle, nothing.

And if you work at a beer store, and sell the amount of craft that Pearl St does, you should have knowledge of the product you are selling. No different than a bar. Is it really that unreasonable to make a phone call, to find out such info? I really need to get in my car and drive to places, waste gas, when the info should be a phone call away?

 

Agreed. Love the staff at Bevy, love their selection. Everything about it is fantastic.

 

Does $28.99 for a 4 - Pack sound way expensive?

 

Im on a list for a place that is getting a single case, not more than 10 miles away, and are selling them for 23.99. So yeah, i think its ridiculous, but again, just my opinion.

 

You must have great timing. Photo below of Heady line (from the Bevy's fb page).

Glad some folks are having positive experiences there, but based on my personal experiences, many of the employees are so rude and inept that I rarely choose to give the Bevy any of the ridiculous amount of money that I routinely spend on beer.

 

$28.99 is high for BCBS, should be able to find for $22-25

 

Guess I'll wait for Bevy or other places to get it then.

 

I will agree, that I think its much easier to grab Heady during the second drop. The last two weeks (excluding this one), I actually did my other beer shopping and grabbed my Heady on the way out, there was that much in the cooler.

Wednesday was also a huge travel day for people, I always expect a much bigger turn out for things like this during the holidays.

 

Hey quick question. Do all the BCBS varieties drop today/Tuesday? Including the Bourbon County Brand Coffee Stout?

Thanks,

 

Looks like vt got roughly 60 cases. Pearl street got 3. Hunger mtn, white river coop, and Woodstock hops n barley got 3 as well.

 

I called Pearl Street and they only have the straight Bourbon County Brand Stout. I wonder when/if we'll get the Coffee Brand Stout?

 

Don't want to say no to other variants but I'm 99% sure we at least got the rye.
