DC/MD/NoVA Bourbon County Stout Sightings 2015

Are people really having trouble finding regular BCBS? If so, shoot me a message. I feel like I can't walk out the door without running into it. I'd be glad to steer anyone in the right direction.

 

Anyone check out U St Wine and Beer

 

Ace Beverage has reasonably priced reg and bw. Harris Teeter noma has of ton of reasonably priced regular.

 

Ace is now out of BW, but still has regular for $10.99.

 

Does anyone know who the distributor in DC is for bourbon county?

Well if that is accurate they will not be distributing any more Bourbon County Coffee!! Because it is showing as suspended I guess that means empty as well? I know some regular and barleywine will be landing at some locations today.

 

It was Regular and Barleywine, no Coffee. I actually thought it was Coffee too, and bought more bottles than I would have if I'd realized it was the BW . . . whoops! (And no, I didn't buy a case, just 3 bottles)

 

I managed to get 5 regular within the last 3 days, looking for any of the variants at all. Really want regal or coffee if anyone out there is willing to make some sort of trade. If not has anyone heard if there is any anywhere?

 

I heard Metro Wine and Spirits in Adams Morgan had Regal for $50 and Coffee for $30 if you're getting desperate...

 

I'd pay $30 for a coffee if I felt at all like going into DC lol.

 

Honestly at those prices you are better off just waiting for a release or tap takeover, its best on draft anyway and it will be cheaper than 30 a bottle!

 

Am I the only one who was completely underwhelmed by Regal? Had it at the Jack Rose event and felt regular and coffee were way better. I actually passed on it on black friday b/c I'd rather pay $11 for regular than ridiculous prices for an inferior beer. If anyone is still seeking it, don't worry - you're not missing much.

 

As soon as I hear of one I'm there!

 

Or just put cold brew coffee in your regular, that's all they do. It won't be exactly the same, but it won't be worse and its a hell of a lot cheaper than a $30 bottle.

 

I whiffed on Regal, but I can attest that this year's regular is friggin' fantastic. I've had multiple bottles/pours of '12, '13, and '14 over the past year, but the 2015 is the best to my taste (at least if my hazy, boozy memory can be trusted). Not surprised the regular blew Regal out of the water.

 

Yup. Regular is unbelievable. No reason to pay 2, 3, even 4x the price for other variants. Regular is fantastic. If you haven't already, try it at room temperature.

 

I can think of a reason - trade bait. But otherwise, yea.

 

I try not to buy beer with the thought of trading in mind. That's when I know I'm hoarding and that's not my thing.
