DFW Bourbon County Varieties - Post When Seen in the Wild

Next week

 

Popping up at Austin Specs the last few days. Checked the one on Hulen in Ft. Worth with no luck and no idea when they would see them.

 

Any idea if Austin got any Regal?

 

Yes I know of three locations that got Regal in Austin. I wouldn't be surprised if there were a few more than that.

 

Bourbon county barleywine still at Spec's and Total Wine Central Expressway

 

Anybody have an idea if any varieties are still around? I talked with Nick at Las Colinas beverages two weeks ago - he told me he'd be getting rare and possibly rye on tuesday the 15th... I gave them a call that day with no answer, check their facebook and they closed before their big move that monday. Ugh.

 

Not that it matters now, but they had a stupid raffle for 12 Rare and 12 Regal tonight at PARKIT MARKET of all places.

 

Are you serious? Parkit Market @ Greenville and University?

 

The one and only.
Open for 53 years and the owner hadn't ever seen anything close to that.

 

They handled it really well - everything was communicated in advance so everyone knew what to expect before they got there.

 

Well. Sure it was...generally. Doesn't mean it isn't stupid.
And I'm a gambling man.
There probably should have only been one drawing of 24 tickets.
Better odds for everyone.
The fact that not one but two people out of 90 won twice isn't really kosher.

 

I see what you did there...

 

lol. completely unintentional!
