    I had a bottle of this, drank it, thought it was amazing. Up there with Upright's best. I've seen it in Seattle - at Malt & Vine - but when I went back to grab another, it was gone. Apparently everyone knows how incredible it is.

    Anyone see it around at other stores in the area? Would love to grab another.

    Whole Foods RSQ had it a couple weeks ago. I got the last bottle they had.

    I know 99 Bottles got it as well.

    I've got an extra if you can't find any more bottles up there. Let me know, man.

    I picked up a bottle @ Chuck's a few weeks back and agree, it was great. The guy told me the entire state of Washington got four cases, but then that's basically just me passing on an unsubstantiated rumor. It might give you some idea about your chances though.

    Unsubstantiated or not, I'd buy it. When I did see it, there was only a couple of bottles. How does something like that work from a distribution perspective? Can a store actually get "a couple" or is there a minimum? It just seems kind of odd that the delivery guy would roll up and take 3 bottles out of a case ...

    I know of times where delivery guys have shown up to beer stores with mixed cases of beers, so this is certainly not unheard of.

    The number is essentially correct. I'm sure it came and went; would have loved to try it.
