    My guess is we'll see them hitting shelves tomorrow at the earliest.

    He owns a bar, so I doubt he asked about cans. You'll find out when everyone else does - just watch beermenus. Based on previous releases, though, it will get released over the span of about a week anyway, it's not going to happen all in one day.

    Ughhh, I feel so bad for Masha over at Beer Boutique right now. She always looks so exhausted and beaten down on Grimm release days.

    The first few places always get hit the hardest. I always have more luck on the 2nd or 3rd days.

    Beermenus instant notifications on my phone are a blessing and a curse.

    Chelsea, Brooklyn, Columbus Circle, Bowery and TriBeCa. Limits will most likely be 1pp. Maybe 2 max.

    I doubt we're gonna see a lot of places offering up 4 packs for this release.

    Surprising that Whole Foods said quantities were extremely limited this time - shouldn't it have been similar to Cloudbusting and Tesseract? I was able to pick up 4-packs of each of those at WF Bowery. Maybe more places are getting allocations now which spreads it thinner?

    For Lambo they also said probably max of 2, but ended up being 4.

    Beer @WholeFoodsNYC ‏@WFMBeerNYC Feb 10
    @GrimmAles Varies by stores, but likely yes. Probably 1 bottle, 2 cans

    For just 2 cans not worth chasing. Will just wait to get on draft.

    Right, although that tweet is more vague than the one they sent today re: Afterimage. Lambo was also double the batch size. And Lambo was still 1pp at WF Tribeca. These low limits are pretty discouraging and almost make it not worth bothering when I can just get it on draft all over the city. Hopefully they are wrong though and some places will have 2pp.

    There's only 250something cases total, right? Not surprised if that's the case.
