    I just picked up a couple bottles. There were about 4 full cases back behind the counter. Not sure if that is their full supply or if they have more in back.

    Any chance Steel Toe has BtD bottles still?

    They still had 4-5 cases yesterday when I stopped in. I'd say chances are still quite good

    Limit 2 at zipps, wasn't much left, don't know if there's more in the back or not. Now, I could be reading this wrong, but the bottle date is fucking 12/19/16. Same day king sue?!?!

    No way. Maybe 11/19/16. I'm guessing they're from the last batch which was approximately a month ago.

    It's 12/09/16. The zero on both my bottles was faded on the left side of it, made it look like a 1.

    Huh. Well that's pretty damn fresh! Figured they'd be from the same batch brewed approximately a month back.

    I found King Sue just hanging out on the shelf at Surdyk's. They also had prairie noir, vanilla noir and pirate noir yesterday at about 5.

    Just left Surdyks, four bottles of King Sue left, sitting warm on the shelf. $10.99.

    TW Bloomington has King Sue Limit 1, $12 per bottle.

    So not only is the parking a pain, the customer service is completely non-existent (the beer guy acts like he's so inconvenienced if you ask him a question) it sounds like TW is once again more expensive than their competitors...

    Sorry for the rant, but that place is not enjoyable to shop at
