    I got my shipment yesterday and 1 of the cases was broken:slight_frown:. I contacted my rep about getting another case and he said it had all been allocated out already. i dont think it will last too long.

    I had one (BA Yeti) in my hands yesterday and the guy said $25, and I also passed. I did get a Pompeii and 5 more BCBS though.

    Does anyone know where I can find some Dragon's Milk Reserve with Raspberries? The wife is starting to like some of the beers I'm drinking & I need to help her with her fix.

    If you can't find any, try regular dragon's milk and use a french press to add flavors. You could do raspberries and a bunch of other stuff like vanilla, coffee, cinnamon toast crunch, etc...

    When will the Stone Brewing and Sierra Nevada NXS come to the liquor stores in Minnesota? I would like to try some of this. It said it would arrive this week.

    Does no limit mean they have tons or that it will be sold out in seconds? Anyone have any insight? I'm thinking of going down around 1:30, but with the level of craziness around beer releases lately, is that hours too late?

    Did they release this last year? Was it any good?

    TW Maple Grove had some last weekend. And Lake Wine in Minneapolis had singles on Monday. Call first since it's been a while.

    Obviously I have no idea what it will be like this year, but to offer a little bit of perspective:

    Last year's Rum Barrel Imperial Coconut Milk Stout lasted for hours. Limit 1/person, 350 bottles and released at 4. I didn't make it until 7 or so and it was still available.

    Someone above said 850 bottles for this release, but with the "no limit" who knows how quickly this will go. I think that was a terrible idea, and they should have at least limited it to like 4/person.

    It was at Princeton's on Monday, might be worth a call if you're in the area.

    Saw some at Thomas last night behind the counter. Might be worth a call. You guys may notice that I post a lot about Thomas. Starting Monday, I'm going to be working there part-time, so I'll be able to help with your questions more. I even made an account for them that I might be posting from.
