Bourbon County thread (NJ PA NY)

Awesome man, thanks. Only a 5 minute drive from OH. I'm sure I'll find beer to buy if it happens to be gone.

 

I'm always surprised at how much BW sits around year after year. I could drink 3x as much BW as Coffee/Reg and never get sick of it. Don't get me wrong, I love coffee and the regular but the BW is just so damn fucking good.

 

Anyone in BK can confirm the WF on 3rd still has coffee and regular?

 

Has anyone cracked the bw from this year? I'm a big 2013 bw fan but this year's on tap was sweet AF and had no barrel on it.

 

I had a pour from a bottle on black Friday and it was too sweet for me, and I typically liked the barleywine as much as BCBS the last few years.

 

I tried the Barleywine on tap at Top Hops on Black Friday and also found it sweeter than I like.

 

Unless they got another shipment, I wouldn't count on getting anything there. I was limited to 2 bottles of regular on Monday.

 

@dar482 , I paid $21.99 for a Regal.

 

thanks man. I was talking to the beer guy at Brooklyn Harvest Market and he was telling me he's working on getting more variants. If he does, he will sell them in packages with regular BCS (or spend a certain amount to get to buy variant)

 

They had plenty regular yesterday. At least 8-9 cases sitting on floor. No limit. And I believe they had more in the back. But only regular.

 

Thanks for the report! I'll give it another shot today.

 

I stopped by MM yest around 12:20 and the coffee was long gone. The owner said LES should get some Rye but wasn't sure about coffee today. GL!

 

I thought the same thing. Lot of raisin, no barrel at all.

 

They just posted on Twitter that Regal Rye is available: $31. BW: $17 and Regular for $14

 

Part of the reason why this was my least favorite of the bunch.

Seems as if there is plenty of regular to go around. I wonder if Georgia skewed the coffee allocations since it was < 14%.

 

Any limit on those? I'm guessing no

 

I've heard from a couple of different shops that have gotten regular BCBS that they don't have variants but they're still expecting them. I wonder if regular Inbev trucks are dropping off BCBS and the GI rep is handling the variants himself.

That's just pure speculation though. Maybe I'm just being lied to by shop owners.

 

Regal was $22 where my dad picked it up for me in Jersey on Monday

 

Has the Bourbon County hit South Jersey yet? It was nowhere on Black Friday but haven't checked since...

 

I got to talking to my bottle shop guy, he said InBev didnt have any coffee going to Queens and I believe LI. BK and I think he said everywhere else has it
