    Yeah, IB seemingly has a lot of stuff that's impossible to find anywhere else. I picked up a BCS Bramble Rye last March there, and when Dogfish Head came back to the area, they were the only ones with the 120 Minute.

    Protip: Go to 8th Street Grille in Holland, it's 3 blocks away from New Holland and has 28 taps of great, great stuff. Or just go to Greenbush because its the best new brewery in MI. Either way, NH= meh.

    Since you're staying in GR, don't miss Brewery Vivant. I don't know what weekend you are going to be there, but BV is having a barrel aged festival in early October.

    Not sure if they sell 'em at the brewery, but they're all over West MI stores. You'll be near Siciliano's in GR, which is a heaven of a bottle shop and will surely have Vivant, as will at least 15-20 other stores in the area.

    They are available at the brewery. It's an old church, and one of my favorite breweries to visit (if not my very favorite). When you walk in the front door, there is a merch area to your right, and you should see a cooler with the various canned beers there. I have not had a bad brew from them, but Escoffier may be my favorite. Enjoy your time, it's a great brewery.

    btw, Founders Furniture City Stock Ale may be available when you are in town. make sure to swing past Founders and pick some up. There's a thread about it in the Beer Releases forum on here.

    Bottles. All i know is what's been posted in that thread. They look to be 750 bottles, so I'm guessing $15 or so per bottle.

    If i had to guess i would say less than that. Only because i paid 14 for the bottle of FMB i got and that seems like a bit harder to brew than this might. Hopefully it wont be super limited because i cant do a bottle release lol
