    I know they no longer make it but Apple Brandy Noir is amazing. I’ve been trying to hoard bottles of that stuff.

    Yeah, I'm not big on the noir series outside of Apple Brandy

    No longer make it? Don't scare me like that!!

    They just posted on 11/27 on FB that they have new apple brandy barrels.

    Did CBS ever hit Beer Temple, Bottles and Cans, etc.? Or was it only limited to Jewel and Binny's?

    I can't answer for specifically BT and B&C, but CBS should be hitting your usual places. I think Bitter Pops is doing a raffle, for example.

    CBS hit all the mom and pop shops in the suburbs early this week. So I would assume its all out there. I know a couple places held it back for events, raffles, ect.

    Weird - this thread took a weekend vacation.

    Anyone know where I can still find a Prairie Bourbon Paradise in Chicago? Beer temple sold out fast. Binny’s says they only got Prairie and Vanilla noir.

    No word on the Prairie BA Paradise? I checked with some Whole Foods and it sounds like they aren't getting it.

    Tinley Park Open Bottle had it last night. And from beer menus, which they are reliable for updating, they sold out.

    Capone's, Beer Temple, and The Open Bottle all received some. I'm sure it's all gone by now, it would be a miracle if it wasn't. I believe they didn't distro them out to Binny's locations last year - from what I hear, they're really weird and picky about who gets the BA stuff.

    I think bourbon paradise came and went today at binnys. May be worth calling around?

    I meant to post this earlier, but it did hit Binny's Lakevew late this morning, and I was able to have my wife grab one. Noir and Vanilla Noir also hit there. No idea if any are left.

    Apparently Binny's Grand got theirs yesterday. I went in the morning and they didn't have it, then called today and found out they got it yesterday at some point - they still had Noir and a few Vanilla Noir left according the guy I spoke with. Timing is key, I guess.

    I went to Binny's yesterday and they said they had the noirs. I asked about paradise and was told they didn't get any in
