    Tried my Binny's today but no dice. Didn't see pics posted at Beer Cellar or Open Bottle. Time to start the daily check ins I guess...

    @YoDudeguy - Few stores (Binnys) I called think they will get it today.

    Same deal though, they are all saying limit 1, hopefully that changes.

    I realize more people will get to try it, but the limit 1 and the price point make me wish I was just hunting one bomber like in previous years

    Binny's Grand will either be today (I was told doubtful), or Thursday for Parabola.

    Definitely a kick to the junk. It's one of my favorites and it looks like I'm going to have to drive all over the place to try to put together a $40 (or more) 4-pack.

    @Nbrock24 totally agree and I am hoping the limit gets upped.

    LP Binny's just got their Parabola in. So far, looks like a half-case on the shelf and 3 cases on the floor. 1 bottle per. The format change is really helping the availability of this beer and I like it.

    You like getting one 12oz bottle? It should absolutely most definitely be 2.

    I've never seen Parabola in the wild in the 5+ years I've looked. I'd take one 12oz over nothing any day of the week.

    Parabola is at Binnys Grand - limit 2 pp. About six cases sitting out on the floor with three cases of bravo ... be sure you grab the right one.

    A brief thought on the size/limits of parabola now.

    Like many, in the past I always had a difficult, but not impossible, time tracking down a bottle. It seems like in the new format, there are more bottles to go around and thus its not as hard to grab. A limit of 2 PP seems reasonable and I for one am very glad to have 2 - 12 oz bottles as opposed to 1 - 22 oz bottle since its much easier to drink in one sitting. I would not have complained if it was a 1-pp limit, but thats just because I never bought more than a single bottle of Parabola. I can certainly see how going from a 1-pp bomber to a 1-pp 12 oz bottle would suck if you really like this beer. What I personally don't like is paying 10.99 for a 12 oz bottle when the old 22 oz bottle was $17. Im essentially paying $5 more for 2 more ounces ...
