    I really wanted another prop, but there's no way I was lining up early twice. This shit is crazy.

    I wouldn’t say it makes me feel better but that’s the best line to describe hunting for bourbon county this year.

    I don't think any of the bourbon county variants are worth this sort of struggle if you're from/live in Chicago.


    Okay, maybe Prop 2013.

    I haven't had it out of a bottle yet but had it on tap at Clybourn. While Koz was ok for me, I do get the notion that it is too sweet. I liked NW, and don't really get the comparison to Koz. I didn't think NW was overly sweet at all.

    Seriously. I dug into a few pours last night at Jewel and it was very good. Really enjoyed it but I'm not going to camp out all night on a Thursday for it.

    Got to the West Loop location at 4:45, was #17 in line. We all saw two cases of Prop and two cases of Reserve, limit one per person. Seemed like they were saving bottles for friends as both prop and reserve were gone by the time I got there. Walked away with a Northwoods, Coffee, and 3 CBS. I was feeling fine about that until I realized I still had to head into work.

    LP WF was just as shitty. 3 variant limit. No limit on type. Basically first 30 got a variant. A least I got 2 coffee, but that was awful.

    Still not sure how that place in Bucktown can get 5+ cases of northwoods, while the flagship Whole Foods in the 3rdargest city in the country gets 1
