    Lol yeah. And on top of that he wants the offer to take the original cost into consideration. The case had to be at least $50. Good luck finding a taker for 2 year old IPAs.

    Taking into consideration the cost of the case, id say $5 is fair

    Just landed a BA Yeti at Premier in Osseo....was looking for BA Biscotti Break and they must have felt bad because they only had gotten 6 bottles of it. He ran in the back room and brought it out. Also have Molitov Heavy. 22.99 and 16.99 per bottle respectively.

    I know this is the bottle hunt thread, so this is a question for twin cities bottle hunters....

    Bought a Pompeii this week an Eden Prairie Liquor and cracked it open tonight, almost completely flat, no head and no lacing on the glass. Not how I remember it from a few months ago when I had it last. Anybody had this experience with this batch?

    Is this from the December batch or the September batch?

    Lots of Death by Coconut at Total Wine in Roseville. Not sure why anyone would like coconut, though.

    The one I had from this batch was just fine as far as head and lacing. Bummer that yours wasn't the same.

    I bought a 4 pack today. They were all still up in boxes and they went up and grabbed one for me. It looked like there were 4 cases.
    Looks like they had about a case left when I was there around 6:30pm.

    Thanks! I haven't been in a while, but I have family who lives over that way. I always appreciated their selection. Must have missed the discussion.

    Let me know if you need help checking any of those six. I want to make sure you're thorough. I love that stuff.

    I was late to getting any last batch so I could only find one bottle from my regular places, so I got a few extras this time around :slight_smile:.
