BCBS once again coming to CA!

I've talked to a few good shops and none of them have it on their radar yet. I keep asking and hoping though.

 

Yea I'm about to start bugging shops as well. And emailing he district guy up here in nor cal

 

Late-November/Early-December

 

Really? Our Straub guy up here told us last month that this year was a "no" for CA distro.

 

King G is a guy who would know. I will leave it at that.

 

I'm pretty sure it's making it out here for sure. And in quantity bigger than we expect

 

Per the Chicago Tribune, hitting California the Week of November 27:

That's nice to hear. I am aging my beans for my BCBS Chili already. I can't wait.

 

I'm coming out to SF next week for work and could bring along GI BCBS if anyone has anything interesting to trade.

 

Inbox blowup go!

 

I've been informed that draught will be in late Nov. But bottles won't be untill well into 2013. Just incase anyone was holding off on Eclipes for BCBS, I think your wallet will have time to recover.

 

That... might be good actually. Between Bruery Allocations, Eclipse futures, and SDBW, I am broke.

 

Along with FW 16th in the next week or two, Abyss coming soon...the last three months of the year always seems to be even more ridiculous than usual.

 

if other markets that had earlier listed release dates are any indication, i assume the Nov. 27 announcement means we'll start seeing it on store shelves close to January or in that neighborhood. hope i'm proven wrong but i'm def. not going to get worked up on the topic this month.

 

Actually no one replied. Oh well.

 

Wow. That's unfortunate. Looking for anything in particular? Bm me

 

Oh wow, I just came over to this Pacific forum to offer the same. Except I am only looking to bring some supplication home, no interest in anything rare. I know I can get supplication at the brewery and will be heading there, but wanted to give SF people a chance to get some BCBS if they want. It seems that 2bcbs:1 supplication seems fair. BM and let me know if you are interested. Only stipulation is that you will need to meet me where I am as I won't have a car.

 

If you are near market/union sq area, cask on market/3rd is a spirit store that always has bottles of Pliny, supplication, damnation, salvation,etc available

 

Looks like you were right, Ken.

 

off topic but speaking of which, i had a weird TheMatrix type experience earlier today. went in a Bay Area market trying to find a specific ethnic herb (Culantro) and while casually strolling, on the shelf saw multiple black, gold & purple topped Eclipse 2011s ($28 ). there also were a few FW15th.
