    Dogleg, I'm assuming you live over here in Katy?

    Hopefully Katy Mills will sell 4 packs. Most other specs that will get them will only get a case. He'll when I called Specs Mason at 10:30a, they said they were sold out already. If you're desperate, I know a place that got 2 cases at $15 per bottle.

    I'll probably hit up Central Market and HEB Bunker Hill on Monday.

    No more there, apparently the manager ignored the list that they made over there. Gonna be a lot of pissed off people there. I imagine the beer department going to shit after Sam left.

    nah, he maintained two per. I heard there were two dudes arguing over the ability to buy a case because so,some told them they could.

    Yep. When I picked up my bottle there were 5 or six people that I've never seen before and they all had a bottle. I wish Trevor could come back.

    I don't mind selling it to who is there. What ticks me off is Rory's attitude toward her customers and how she treats them. She's shown her negative side in public quite a few times lately. Miss Trevor and Sam.

    Missed out being out of town. I do have some BCBS if anyone who has some KBS would be interested just beermail me.

    Yeah, I'm in Katy. Jesus christ, $15 per bottle; I'll be happy with the one single I landed for that price. I'll likely hit those same two spots on Monday if my morning meeting doesn't last forever. Happy that Sam got the job at Firestone, but damn it sucks for us that live in that area.

    $15 a bottle?! I didn't know the Friendly Spot had a location in Houston

    and some complaints have led them to lower the price now

    Not Houston related per se, but a beer manager at a Specs said a guy threw such a fit when they sold out of KBS that the cops were almost called. They said he was throwing stuff around and cussing a the employees out. Sheesh it's only beer !!!

    I'm happy cause I got close to a case of BCBCS and can get all the BOMB! I want. I had a KBS last night, while good it's not worth going crazy over. Stay safe out there guys.

    Agreed. KBS this year is a lot more chocolaty that coffee, I'd take BCBCS over it any day. Landed 2 bottles of KBS and I was looking for more until I tried it. I honestly don't think people need to go crazy over it.

    Agreed as well. KBS is very good, but nowhere near that good. lol No offense to anyone, hell I waited in line for 30 min for two bottles. But I won't be doing that again for KBS.

    Totally agree, I've been into craft for quite a while and this is as bad as I remember it being.

    BTW, Matt, what did you think of the Bible Belt ?

    Agreed on alllll counts. BCBCS crushes KBS. A friend and I had 2013 bottles next to 2014 tap, and we agreed that the 2013 somehow had more coffee to it, so I'm glad to hear that we're not totally fucking crazy.

    Just like bomb but with more spices that linger on the tongue. If you like even more Jesus from ET, you'll enjoy Bible Belt.

    Lol. Also heard from another BA about 2 fat guys yelling at the HEB buffalo speedway beer manager because he was limiting them to 2 bottles each. He finally caved and gave them a 4 pack each.


    Some people have no shame I guess
