    Yep, $25 onsite only. The '14 for $75 was worth it, I think.

    I was there too. Had the wife and two kids with us. Managed 2 pours of Prop and 1 Coffee. Really easy to get pours there.

    I definitely like the 12oz bottles from Central Waters and their prices.
    But no, BCBS is far superior to the BBS from CW.

    I find Central Waters stouts to always be thinner than I wish they were. Many are still quite good though. To add on in a largely unrelated noted, I had Black Gold for the first time recently. It was very good but pretty hot still for a beer that highly revered

    Not even close.

    Their black gold and anniversary beers are right there with BCS, probably a little better.

    Definitely not. And I really like both of these beers.

    Think it’s been said, but I saw several cases of BCBS on the floor at LP Binny yesterday. Also a few BW left. For those still hunting...

    I was just at East Delaware Pantry off Michigan Ave, they're getting more BCBS next week. I was also told that they're definitely getting Coffee and Northwoods for sure, possibly other variants.

    Sounds like a second drop is coming.

    I was right next to the bar on the south side of the place. At a high top with 2 kids and my wife. That place turned into much more of a bar in recent years than it used to be. It used to be much more of a cozy restaurant - guess it’s been awhile since I’d been there.

    Think that coincided with popping the top on the old place and the destruction of Old Town....
