    Thought I'd finally chime in here with the things I've come across in my travels:

    Top Ten in Woodbury had about ten bottles of High Westified on the shelf. I don't think they move through their limited stuff very fast as there was still some Avery Tweak on the shelf too (I bought those).

    Merwins in Falcon Heights had a case of BA Bigfoot and a few bottles of Green Flash Silva Stout. I wouldn't recommend the latter, I was very disappointed with my purchase.

    Some people earlier in the thread were asking about BLAKKR and Hop Dish cans. Both have started popping up this week and should be common sights by Friday. Zipps had both for sure.

    Talked to a JJ rep who said Avery Uncles Jacob's Stout has been allocated and will start hitting the shelves next week. 72 cases came into the state.

    Also, regarding Black Note, there seems to be a lot of speculation and misdirection with this beer. I've heard six more months, this month and not at all because the barrels were used for Saturn. I'm choosing not to believe anything and staying patient. It's definitely coming... Eventually.

    Anyways, hoped this helped some people. Cheers.

    Sorry, I thought you were referring to the 2 previous posts in line with yours.

    I never saw a post about Weyerbacher.
    Might've been from someone who I ignore though, as I wouldn't see that.

    Won't happen again.

    Anyone seen Enjoy By 4.20 six packs around the SW metro? I love the stuff.

    Not SW Metro, but Falls Liquor had some sixers last night.

    What have people seen for pricing on the sixers vs. the bombers?

    Looking for a bomber of this as I haven't had this batch yet. Anyone seen bombers still hanging around in MPLS?

    I got a six pack at Liquor Barrel in Golden Valley (two weeks ago?) and it was $15.99, where the bomber was $10.99 I believe. To answer @Alagir, I have no clue if they still have any though.

    At that rate, I will probably just stick to the 6 pack since it is a much better value. I'm normally fine with just splitting a bomber with my GF, but I guess I can force myself to drink a few more 12ozers of this beer :stuck_out_tongue:

    I was out and about over lunch and ended up finding a sixer in Brooklyn Park for $14.99.

    I just stopped at Chicago Lake. I usually only go there for the great bourbon prices, but ended up with a haul. Brooklyn Black Ops (2 bottles), BA Bigfoot (2 bottles) and Green Flash Silva Stout. Spent way more money than I intended, but figured I probably wouldn't see any of these again around here.
