    KBS will probably probably be gone in a couple hours. The BB should last a little longer. Mad Mex had it on a few months ago and it lasted over a week.

    Not bad then.

    I just wanna be sure that if I make the hour and half drive, I'll be assured at least one draft of KBS lol I've never had KBS before.. so I'm eager to try it whatever way I can.

    At least next year there will be 1/3 more produced . . . . Finally they will meet the demand!!!

    Doubt that. They will just expand their distribution into more states like they have every year

    Complete sarcasm! They would have to do way more than increase it by 1/3!

    I just feel like they say every year that they are increasing their production and they always fail to mention all the new markets they are entering

    Fuck that. Wilson mcginley were asses on the phone also. If they dint want to deal with the hype, don't carry it. God forbid we want to give them money.

    Unbelievably rude. Told me they weren't going to tell me anything and to call all of the distributors and bottle SOS in pittsburgh to find out.

    @basickness yea that's not cool for people to be rude like that. Good point too about knowing what you gotta deal with when you are in a certain type of sales. All i know is i'm looking forward to that House thing on april 12th!

    Wow. I am glad I am closer to Erie than Pittsburgh, sounds like a complete shit show down there. Erie was selling them for $8 a pop, (more then last year's price) but there was no limit and they seem to be getting a bunch of it in...so there was no problem getting it.

    The house just announced Tuesday at 11:00AM. Two bottle limit. Too bad for those of us that have day jobs!! Just keeping my finger crossed I can find at least a bottle this year.

    I doubt you'll do better than that for single bottles. Giant Eagle's 4-packs will be reasonable as will cases if you get lucky. At both Carson St. Deli and Beer Nutz bottles were $15 each last year. They are $20 apiece at that place on Ellsworth. Cases are around $130 so its not that terrible of a markup, at least compared to some of the other crap we see around here.

    On the subject of cases, last year I tracked down several with basically no effort at all (don't worry I only bought 1). One place had cases just sitting out for sale with no list, and another I called in the day beforehand and was the only person who asked for it. I checked at one of the places this weekend and they have 5 people on a list already, so I'm not holding out a lot of hope for this year.
