If you have access to Meijer, they are already available in a gift pack with malted milk ball. Round Lake Beach has them.

 

Montgomery binnys had Cafe Deth and Deth's Tar.

 

Anyone see the Perrin gift packs at any other Meijers? Checked the Orland store twice thinking maybe I missed it but no dice.

 

I got one in Bolingbrook. It looked like the last one but maybe give them a call to check

 

Did you find it yet? PM me if you haven't.

 

Three bottles of abraxas sitting on the shelf at Wheaton whole foods.

 

*************! This gift pack was available at Chicagoland Meijers? I was gonna check but figured we weren't getting it. Probably missed out. Damn.

 

Meijer in McHenry still had a few sitting out last night.

 

I have a little news to share: CBS will be at The House Pub in St Charles on 12/19. It will be a ticketed event in an undetermined way at this time.

 

where you seeing this? havent had a chance to try CBS yet and I'm in geneva so maybe ill give it a go.

 

@csmakio - If you're looking for CBS tappings, the Founders site has a list of events for IL with two coming up in Aurora:

Founders rep told me this weekend

 

Plank Road Tap Room in Elgin will have it at open today (4 i think).

 

Anyone hitting Open Bottle tomorrow for the Ballast point event ? Hopefully I'll be there right when it starts. Cheers

 

This Vlad Maple + Coffee variant is great, it's a perfect combination of the two. It's very Maple forward, with a nice coffee bite on the end. It leaves a nice maple-y flavor and stickiness on your lips as well. I'm a big fan of this one

 

Looks like the Vlad hype is finally at normal Chicagoland levels. Bottles sold out in about an hour.

 

Yeah Vlad with raspberries generated a lot of positive buzz at Fobab. I wonder if that carried over today (plus great weather and the Open Bottle event nearby)
