    Where in NH are you? I have been looking all over the seacoast but I'm probably too late.

    Managed to get a 4-pack from my local Wegmans yesterday - apparently they sold out this morning. $20.99 for the 4-pack - great price for a great beer. Huzzah.

    Now to do side-by-side comparisons with my last remaining Sunday Morning Stout and my BA Bomb!

    Same thing happened to me at my gas station, except it was Natural Light and not KBS.

    Had 2016 and 2015 side by side, and I think I definitely prefer 2015. I got pretty overpowering heat from '16 and not much else.

    Barrel Aged Bomb, if you haven't had it, is VERY vanilla forward and sweet. Will probably stick out as not comparable between the three. Sounds tasty though.

    I am the same way. Finally built up my beer cellar and feel if I would have spent this money elsewhere, I might be in a better financial situation haha. But you did good with four bottles. I went a little overboard and got 16 but I will wait to enjoy all of these for specific times.

    Laconia and yes I am sure they are all gone. You may try the Epsom Circle Store, they got 3 cases. I had to hit 3 stores plus send a family member and another friend to get all this.

    Warehouse Beverage in South Euclid, OH got their bottles in at around noon or so today. Limit one bottle per customer first come first serve. Cost is $5.75 per bottle before tax. I got mine already.

    Just scored a case for $150. I'm happy and want to throw up due to my financial collapse at the same.

    That is one boozy lunch. Not sure I would be able to work after that.

    4 pack 20$ CT. Cheapest i saw so Me and a buddy split it.
    Had this yesterday. This beer was a dissapointment. Little no heat present (which you expect some from a BBA beer) very mellow coffee and Chocolate. I will be shocked if I see anyone age this. As I dont know what you be planning to get out of it by aging it.
    Granted this a beer people age just to age.

    My advice would be to put the Natty in the fridge a few hrs before drinking. Wouldn't be nearly as hot.

    Kidding, and Northwest Arkansas has still yet to see the distributors release the beer.

    We had a KBS thread in South-Atlantic but it seems to have disappeared. Total Wine at Laskin Road in Virginia Beach posted on Facebook that they have some in stock. I just went there and the guy said they have about two cases left if anyone is looking in the Hampton Roads area.
