    Yep. Ran out of coffee early, but they said that they still have Barley Wine.

    I'm sorry that's ridiculous. Never going to shop there if that's their strategy.

    I knew it would be expensive at Buzz, but I didn't think it would be that bad. Their prices are out of control.

    It's rather hard to find. I have a proportion of 4:2:1 Regular, BW, Coffee. Where are you based out of?

    I live in OC, work in Pasadena, and go to the Torrance area on weekends. I tried the Manhattan Beach Bevmo but they were all out.

    There was similar price gouging for FW Velvet Merkin at Buzz. $30 a bottle for something that you could still walk into a BevMo and get for half the price.

    also don't like how they keep beer out by the door and windows

    Buzz is awful. Stopped in last week, they clearly don't know what they're doing.

    I agree, Buzz is awful, tried to give it a chance, then I saw they were charging $12 for 1 bottle of BCBS...

    hey guys, I don't normally post but I just wanted to let everyone know that there's BCBS, BCBW, AND BCBCS at a lot of Orange County Whole Foods today - definitely some in Tustin and Laguna Beach (just got back from there), and probably more in other stores as well. I believe they're only being sold in singles at Laguna Beach, not sure about Tustin.

    now, if only I could find the Backyard Rye....
