    I understand your point. I just don't want this thread to turn into a bitch fest. 8 bottles is not that absurd to me. That is enough to crack one ever 6 months for 4 years to see how it ages. Hes not the guy with 17 cases

    only in chicago are people insulted for not taking a day off work to drive around 50 stores to hunt down a bottle of beer.

    and you assume my local store or any stores near me do lists. they don't. the only shop that does that might be in my general path home or around my neighbourhood is binny's grand, and that was filled ages ago. buying eight bottles of a super limited beer like cherry is being quite greedy.

    for those of you who don't wind up with a bottle of cherry, maybe it might be worthwhile to buy some tart cherry juice and blend some into a regular bcbs, as there's still a number of places with regular bcbs on the shelf. i know i'll be doing come sunday...

    yeah, probably a better move.

    If I may be so bold as to edit this a bit: "This is exactly what is wrong with the beer chase everywhere."

    Try taking dried cherries like you find at Trader Joes and stick them in your BCBS for awhile. Also, french pressing very high quality coffee with BCBS is great as is toasted coconut. This is much easier than folks think and it is damn good. Did I mention there was no chase involved?

    I know its not avail now, but NG raspberry tart & ba stouts are a total winner. I had a growler of Indignant going south and the addition of rt made it amazing

    It's a free country. He has every right to to what he wants. And I have every right to call him a douchebag as well.

    It's just common sense. If u are going to get that much, have the decency to not beg for attention on a site like this.
