Twin Cities Bottle Hunt - 2016 Edition

3/22 Todd at Maple Grove Total Wine.

 

Speaking of, was just trying to find more. Anyone know of any available Bent Paddle BA Double Shot Double Black (besides Craigslist)? A personal favorite that I'd like to enjoy again.

 

so is KBS really April 1st ? or is it sometime next week?
asking cuz i'll be in vegas

 

Fine! IPA from Big Wood should be showing up and in my opinion is delicious!

"FINE! IPA is a 6.5% ABV, 75 IBU West Coast IPA brewed with Mosaic, Simcoe, and Azacca hops. It carries intense notes of mango, papaya, and other tropical fruits, balanced by a sturdy malt backbone."

Why do so many MN IPA's need a "Sturdy Malt Backbone?"

I want the hops, gimme da hops, baby

 

3/22 Todd at Haskell's Ridgedale.
3 cases of CW BBBW, too.

 

Lagunitas Aunt Sally in Hudson

 

It is a really solid beer. Focusing on the taproom beers and developing a couple more standouts for that rotation would be a great approach for them. Hope the "strong" Maibock is back again this spring too. Kind of under appreciated IMO.

 

$6.99 for enjoy by 4.20 at Zipps. Best price I've seen for this around the cities.

 

Are you sure it wasn't 16.99? That is crazy cheap if it's true.

 

haha yep, bought a bottle.

 

Classic 6 pk Vs bomber confusion

 

I think the bombers I've seen are $7.99-8.99 I think the 6-packs are 16.99.

 

Whoops, yeah 6er vs bomber confusion. Still a good price for the bomber though!

 

Yeeeeah, I forgot about the bombers. That is a solid price though.

 

What's the freshest Todd that's been spotted, and where?

 

just saw. Looks like it's 3/22

 

3/22 at Vinifera.

 

3/22 at Haskell's Minnetonka this morning as well, only a couple remaining in cooler slot when I left though.

 

Any Mosaic Promise sightings yet? Casanova's only got a couple cases that sold out right away, and it looks like Moorhead got it so I would imagine the rest of the state will soon too.
