    Anyone see any in Lexington yet? I have not but I think the snow storm wiped out out the shipment since most of the places here get prairie on Friday. They haven't said when the shipment would come. Just curious.

    I talked to a guy at Shenanigans on Saturday and he said most likely they'd get it on Friday. Hopefully enough hits Lexington that I'll be able to find some this weekend.

    So apparently the beer trappe has some but it is only for consumption onsite. It seems fishy though...

    They always seem to do that with harder to find beer. Probably so they can charge twice the price.

    I am very skeptical because when I talked to them on Saturday, they said they didn't know when the truck from Friday would show up. I am going to see them tomorrow and see what I can find out. Hate when they do that.

    Also, this information was from my cousin. She doesn't know beer as well as myself but that is what she was told.

    Yeah, I saw one person checked into it at The Beer Trappe on Untappd on Monday, so that may be true

    Trappe does have it, I don't know how, but it appears to be bar-only, no take home bottles.

    From shananigans, one case made it to Lexington. They don't know if they will get anymore.

    In other news, I found some okie coffee if anyone is interested in it. 10 bucks a bottle though.

    Sorry, meant to say one case of BA bomb made it to Lexington and it only went to The Beer Trappe.

    Anyone check with the Whole Foods in Louisville? They typically get allocated everything that hits Louisville.

    I'll usually go to Whole Foods before I go anywhere else; they've been awesome about getting limited releases when everywhere else seems out. Unfortunately, it looked like they might not have gotten any shipment at all this week, for whatever reason; no BA Bomb, and seemingly nothing else new either.

    Another good place worth checking for stuff like this, though: Westport Whiskey and Wine. They're very hit and miss, but every now and again they'll have something I can't find anywhere else (tons of Coffee Okie last week when nobody else had had it for weeks).

    Lexington is due to get more BA Bomb this week. I might pass entirely, gotta go get those BBCVDA up at Jackie O's this weekend.

    I really hope so. I wanted to try this beer for a month now. I love regular bomb. Can imagine how this is.

    Where did you find the Coffie Okie?

    Wine + Market on west 2nd street. Has some of the best beers you thought were gone. They had about 20 Okie Coffee left, and about a case of Christmas Bomb. I picked up some Xocoveza and a couple other beers. A little expensive for 10 bucks, but no other place in Lexington has it.

    They are just a little shop that not to many people visit to often. Solid place though. They must have just got the Okie Coffee in though. I was there last week or so and they had a shit ton of Christmas Bomb but no Okie Coffee.

    The Keg in Clarksville, IN had 6 bottles of BA Bomb on the shelf earlier today. So if you're in Louisville and feel like driving across the river, get at it. Also, 1 bottle limit, $11 per bottle.

    Headed over at lunch, and seemingly as always with the Keg, I missed the Prairie by a few hours. Got a BA Imperial Biscotti Break for my troubles, though.

    You know what, I wanted to try that BA Imperial Biscotti Break, but the regular Biscotti Break to me, was very lack luster. I was not impressed at all.
