    Beer temple in Chicago got BA Expo and has four year verticals of the standard. I called and they said bottles will last less than an hour maybe 30 minutes. Get there gents and limit is one per person.

    I live an hour and half away..... sadness

    Out in St. Joe with the fiance for an overnighter (not New Buffalo like I thought) and found a 4 pack.

    I wasn’t looking to buy, but a local shop got a two cases, two bottle limit, sold out in two hours.
    Sounds like you got lucky it was still sitting around today.

    I will be there for the 5:00PM tour. I wish they would have saved some BA Expedition bottles for today. Oh well, no worries.

    Yeah it was. And my bad man, we had agreed to leave our phones off the entire time we were out there. Didn't see this until now when checking BA after I got home, or I would have. Also stopped at Transient on the way home and got some No Cake and Brimley.

    Havent seen anything yet. All I heard was this week, so I assume Wednesday at the earliest since that is when beer normally drops here.

    @ypsifly do you know when we can expect to see any BBA Expedition here in Metro Detroit?

    One place in Rochester got it yesterday, but it was all reserved for those on the list.

    Possibly tomorrow but most places are still stating they have no record of it coming in. Rave distributes to Oakland county on Wednesdays.

    This is the same thing that happened with Black Note last year. General Store sold it first and distribution didn't show up until 4-6 weeks later.

    I don't know distribution schedules at all, but I can confirm that I just found it in Farmington. Case was still on the floor, picked up a pack. Looks like its officially going to be popping up around town now guys.

    Shoot me a message - it's not my usual place, so I don't want to upset anyone if its their go-to.

    Anyone know how accurate their beer finder is? I checked last week and it seems like there has been an expansion into Indiana this week.

    Don't use any beer finders but I can say that it's going to be in my area tomorrow. So I would say it's closely accurate.

    At Pine Knob in Clarkston according to their social media. No mention of limits or price, but PK is typically on the higher end of retail.
