    I'll be in Austin and San Antonio tomorrow. Was wonder if any of the following is still around in either place or if I'm late to the party.

    BB Hellfighter or variants
    Fun 13
    Bishops Barrel 13
    Pirate Bomb
    Ranger Creek BB Stout
    Ranger Creek DH Berliner
    Abyss Variants
    KBS

    Thanks in advance. I tried not to make this a just tell me what to get thread and do my research ahead of time.

    In San Antonio, central market broadway still had pirate bomb when I went less than a week ago. They might have the ranger creeks too.

    I still have some BB13 at Big Hops Huebner in San Antonio. For Ranger Creek DH Berliner, try Spec's, Whole Foods, and NW Food Mart. As far as I know, it hasn't been approved for HEB or Central Market yet.

    Live Oak hit HEB or Specs yet? Only found it at NW Food Mart so far.

    Either way, if OP is coming to Austin he can find LO all over the place.

    I saw FUN 13 at HEB Hancock a couple days ago, and I think they had BBH chocolate as well. Central Market N Lamar has that. They also had Pirate Bomb last week, but not sure if thats still there.

    Ranger Creek was also at Hancock HEB and I know both you mentioned are at HEB Mueller as well

    Whole Foods Domain had Bishops Barrel 13 a couple weeks ago, but not sure about now.

    Hope that helps... now I'm going to go feel bad about knowing all this.

    Wow, BA comes through! Thank you all for the feedback. Looks like I should be able to get some good stuff there. I'll post updates as I find stuff in case others are looking as well.

    Update: Just went to northwest food mart and they have most of what you listed: BB Hellfighter chocolate, pirate bomb, and both ranger creeks. I don't even think we ever got the abyss variants.

    I know Austin got the Abyss variants on April 1st. It was on Sunrise Market Twitter. Not sure if SA ever saw them.

    The amount in Austin was beyond minimal.

    I saw a bottle of Cognac on the shelf at Quickie Pickie on Sunday. At $25 I had to pass.
