    I'd be happy just to get a couple of each bottles. I really don't care what I have to pay for them. This is my favorite beer. Was nice to drink a little at Senior Wongs tonight. They had a 1/6th of '12 BCBS and the same of '12 Darkness. I guess they had a Rum King by Indeed. Supposedly the only keg out of the brewery. It was pretty good. My first rum aged.

    Haskell's Minnetonka just tweeted "Official word: #BCBS will not be available at the store this year. #bummer"

    I guess I shouldn't get my hopes up for variants.

    Wow, two quieter haunts near my house in the decidedly non-beer-hot-spot of Eagan wiped out within an hour in the middle of the day? I'm looking around for the plague of locusts.

    Princeton's tweeted 30 min ago they have it in with a two bottle limit. I'll never make it there in time so good luck to everyone else!

    Princeton's in MG just got regular BCBS, 2 bottle limit.

    While there, I spoke with the GI distributor (nice guy). He basically said that no TC liquor stores will be getting any variants. They didn't get enough to distribute evenly to their accounts. He said that local bars/restaurants will get the variants and release them as special promotions/events.

    I suppose the only way we'll know for sure is if anyone sees the variants turn up in the next few days, but it's not looking great

    Is Coffee considered a variant? If so then 2 stores in Eagan received it.

    I saw BCBS and Coffee at MGM in Eagan (sadly it was being held for someone)... and he was expecting Backyard and BW later in the week.
