    I believe most, if not all, are $30+ per bottle

    I need to start looking for a second job to pay for all this beer.

    Truth... the wave never stops of brews to buy.

    Yeah, I basically had to stop looking at this thread and avoid liquor stores. My bank account took a sad hit this fall/winter.

    Todd 2/23 is delicious as ever. Lots of citrus, grapefruit and super dank! It's not 4/20 but I'm really enjoying this!

    I just started visiting bars...much cheaper. And I don't care as much as I use too.

    I'm guessing this has come and gone, but has anyone seen omnipollo/buxton yellow belly still around? I would love to try that beer sometime

    Is Todd year round, now?

    They'll supposedly be alternating between Todd and Abrasive making one or the other a year round thing.

    I can vouch for the 2.15 Todd being equally as delicious. Being in Rochester, I will take it.

    2/15 Todd is at Northgate Andover. Damn good, but I can't see myself buying any more at $16.99/4 pack.

    None of them should be above $30.99 should all be in the 25-30 range, at least that is where we are at.

    I was just at Zipps thinking I would pick up a bottle of the Sang Noir but passed - 29.99 was a little steep. I grabbed some Todd and Hi Res instead.

    Well, better than the $39.99 I saw out in Cali at least! I'll probably invest in a Noyaux at that price & maybe another in a month or two if they're still around. It'll be interesting to see if the become shelf turds around here. I think they will because of the price, but I suspect they won't because of a lack of top-notch sours on the shelves.

    It sounds as though it will now be seasonal but 6 months ago they said we may not see it until July so who knows. However I will take one week old Todd the Axeman any season, day or time!

    I need to finish hop forest and resin before I grab Todd. Not enough acceptable drinking hours in the week!

    trying Ode for the first time. Castle Danger sure doesn't short you any beer in their cans, do they? Decent IPA; just warming up for my Todd purchase tomorrow.

    At MGM Calhoun: plenty of 2/14 Todd, decent amount of CWBBW singles, and a lot of BA Old Rasputin XVIII (for some reason).

    Also, in the OMG OVERPRICED (sometimes) WHALEZ BRO! section, one bottle each of Abyss, Black Butte XXV, and 15' Dissident.

    My prediction: Shelf turds. I love their sours, but not at $30+ per bottle.
