    You know what sucks? Not at the store yet. Which means it's coming on my normal Tuesday delivery. Which means a lot of unhappy people until it shows up, which is whenever it shows up.

    Evergreen Park and Orland Park locations. Also heard that some of the smaller liquor stores, due to politics within the chicagoland distribution chain will not be receiving KBS, even though in the past they did receive some

    Distribution is changing hands from Glunz to Lakeshore. Possibly as soon as next week, so I'm told.

    Cool thanks for verifying that. I also heard that might be stinking up the KBS release schedule

    KBS will be Glunz's last hurrah for Founders.

    There's more of it this year for sure, but it's still a relatively small amount.

    As for distribution in Chicago, dont get me started. I could rant about that for hours. Maybe i'll do a Reddit AMA.

    I just saw the tweet - it was from two hours ago :grimacing:
    2 bottle limit.

    I can only assume it's gone - though they have not confirmed...
