    BM me if you don't have any luck and are willing to go out of your way for 1 bottle. I know of a place, near the mall/hospital in Columbia, that offers an even $/high-five exchange rate.

    WHAT!? Since when is Prairie at PP? Any chance of BB coming back/any other places around there?

    In case anyone's curious, I stopped by Perfect Pour today and the only Prairie beer left on the shelf was Puncheon for $13.99. They only had maybe 2-3 bottles left.

    they haven't signed with a distributor but that doesn't mean you can't find it

    Max's tap house has Bible, Ale, and Puncheon all at bar prices. I think Bible was $18. They also have Birra on tap.

    It's getting better, but they still gouge on some stuff occasionally. For instance, they have a 600 ml bottle of Madame Rose (I'm assuming the new batch that just came out) up for $35. Then again, looking at what the other sisters went for a few months back this might not be too far off, but I couldn't stomach it.

    Yeah, you aren't going to get the best rate in town there. I think that may be dictated by rent for that location. It is a BUSY area. I do think their price vs. selection is hard to beat though.

    The latest batches of Madame Rose are indeed going for $30-35, but I thought they were 750s. Sounds like this store is retroactively price surging on a past vintage.

    So I'm curious. Did these bottles show up anywhere else besides Max's, State Line and Perfect Pour? I stopped at The Wine Source in Baltimore on Sunday (another place I thought might get Prairie) and came up empty.

    Wine Source got in Spaghetti Western today. They said they were supposed to get Puncheon but didn't for some reason. They do not think they will get Bible Belt.

    PP got more bible belt in. Bought a bottle last night. Underwhelming beer, IMO.

    Really? I was a huge fan. Liked it better than Bomb! actually.

    Bomb! has some batch variation from what I've tasted. I think I went into the Bible Belt hoping for Bomb! even though it was really just Even More Jesus with Bomb! spicing.

    I found Bible Belt to need a little more sweetness as it tasted a bit chalky. The spicing (cacao, coffee, peppers and vanilla) was also muted when compared to Bomb!.

    Spaghetti Western has been on tap for awhile at CK in DC... I am not sure if it's still around though, it was last Friday.

    PP has in Puncheon and Spaghetti Western still as of this afternoon. Bible Belt was long gone.

    I had Spaghetti Western on tap at Churchkey yesterday and while it's a stupid idea for a beer, it is really really tasty.
