    If not, @JdoubleA, I've got some 13 bottles left - we could do two of those, my last bottles of Bomb! (extra peppers!) and my brandy aged Dark Lord. That would make one hell of a good chili. I don't know if it would be as good as the one we made with 3 bottles of Blendiculous - but I can't wait to find out!

    @MrPeabodysBeard - next time I'm up your way I'll try to remember to bring you a bottle of my homemade barbecue sauce. It's got two bottles of King Henry & a 2012 Olde Rabbit's Foot (thanks @JdoubleA) in it. Some would consider that a waste of incredible beer, but they've never tried my sauce.

    Definitely not us (distributor) Cases went out at the exact same price as last time. Some reps were slow to bill their allocations which is why a little more is popping up here and there.

    very little, apparently. morganelli's supposedly got some in on tuesday but i don't know of any other store that did. i found a couple of cases in athens on friday but wasn't about to cough up the $19 per bottle that they were asking.

    Well thats amazing. Both Red Wine Can Can and Fisticuffs are way superior to MC IMO and are honestly two of my favorite beers from Westbrooks ever. They've been gone from the brewery for a long time (especially the Can Can's). Pretty awesome they showed up out of the blue. Buy them, you won't be disappointed.


    Also, in regards to the person who posted not a good move from Westbrook to jack up the prices; I HIGHLY doubt the price inflation was from Westbrooks end.

    I regret passing on Red Wine Can Can last fall. I had Bourbon Barrel Aged Can Can and it was such a well crafted beer.

    Correct, westbrook's price was the same to us and our price was the same to our accounts.

    Well that is good to know! I honestly had a gut feeling driving home that I should go to Westbrook but I decided to pass. Shoulda trusted the gut as I still haven't gotten any regular cake yet this year. Thanks to your heads up I will stop by tomorrow (knowing my luck it will probably be gone but oh well, haha). Thanks!

    One guy went in there, bought his limit of 6, and then repeated the process 3 more times! My friend and I were amazed, but they were letting him do it (and told us we could do the same if we wanted).

    I think they are just ready to get rid of it and not be bothered anymore, especially for those working the bar. It gets crazy in there at times just keeping up with the regular orders, let alone trying to sell bottles at the same time. For most of the releases (silent or not) they usually have a separate table just for those bottles. That wasn't the case yesterday.
