Twin Cities Bottle Hunt - 2016 Edition

Speaking of AB Noir - in the growler I saw a distributor ad with vanilla noir - any idea when thats hitting?

 

Saw a post that Falls and Elevated have it.

 

Prairie BA bomb and noir variants are here in the city. Check your local haunts that get Tuesday deliveries. This needs to stop...

 

The name of the thread is bottle hunt, I'm not sure why you are upset people are asking a thread specific question

 

I interpreted this as "the onslaught of 'chase-worthy' releases needs to stop"

Maybe I was wrong?

 

Yes, this. Apologies for confusion. I'm broke after the last couple weeks.

 

Got it. I thought you were all sour grapes. But yes. I agree this is getting out of hand. But the urge to buy is too strong

 

Any Big Bad Baptista still hanging around in the west metro? Would love to try it!

 

Details for Beer Geek Christmas have been released. Looks like the rare stuff will be released throughout the day. Probably won't be worth the frostbite in line at 6 am or sliding our cars into a snowbank. http://us9.campaign-archive2.com/?u=b7f3bf1d5a23f6e0feaa5f9b5&id=2a15f6eca2

 

I really like this approach. It gets people in and out of he store with less drama, increases the chances that customers will actually take a minute to browse around the store before rushing out, and allows everyone an even chance at the "biggest" stuff.

Hopefully less stressful for the staff as well!

 

Anyone seen the Fulton sour on the shelves? Or is it at the brewery?

 

Yeah, I really like the concept. Do you know exactly what you're going to get? No, but it'll probably be pretty good and I don't have to wait in the freezing cold. I avoided this the past few years, but will definitely stop by now.

 

South Lyndale had all the Prairie stout variants this morning, 2 bottle limit per

 

Am I the only one that doesnt see a date on the info release. I'm sure it's widely known but that seems strange.

 

On FB it says Sat Dec 17th.

 

Was just in SLL, no BA bomb but they had the noir variants, and against my better judgement I bought a vanilla one

 

Zipps tweeted yesterday they have it.

Seperate note, does anyone remember if the Fair State RIS sees distro or not? I think I remember seeing it on shelves last year but I could be making that up.

 

I recall seeing Fair State's RIS at Central Liquors in NE last year.

 

It does. I got my bottle at Vinifera last year.

 

All gone
