    Where are they in the store? I stopped by last night and couldn't find them anywhere. Also stopped by Holman road QFC but they were all gone.

    Hopefully Last Drop has some left, I'm gonna go over tomorrow when they open up.

    They are in the back corner of the store in a craft facing. They haven't put it all out either so the last bit should be staggered a bit more.

    I believe that Columbia distributes FW in Seattle (per barleywinefield).

    AB SouthWest is the distributor for FW in King County. Olympic Eagle (also inBev) for Pierce County and south.

    How was the bottle of the 2011? Aside from a few of the negative comments about the vintage in this thread, I thought the keg version I had at the Apex a bit odd as well. It was very different from the fresh 2012, and I didn't feel that was all attributable to the extra time in bottle/keg.

    Just curious, as I plan to bring a 2009 through 2012 vertical to an event back east in January. Thanks!

    I defer to you on this. Doesn't change my position, tho.

    Every FW salesperson in Pierce County drives a vehicle with the words Budweiser stamped on it somewhere...unless it says Bud Light of course. If you're drinking FW in the PNW, you are supporting InBev.

    Ha! Thanks, it's on the game plan for tomorrow if we can fit it in. Going to try to make it over around noonish... hopefully with Barleywinefiend, if he and the wife can make it over with the newborn. Just so much going on, with so many different things we're supposed to try to fit in. Not sure we can fit a trip to Redhot in tomorrow as well, but definitely plan to try. If tomorrow doesn't work, then I'll stop by on Saturday after I drop everyone off at the airport. This week has already just flown by!

    My brother's girlfriend is a big hotdog fan, so of course I told them we need to stop by the redhot. Hopefully we can make it happen!

    (thanks for the invite!)

    This is getting off topic, but if you're going to boycott brands based on being aligned with an AB distributor you have to stop drinking the following (at least in Oregon):

    • 10 Barrel
    • Burnside
    • Fort George
    • Gigantic
    • Lompoc
    • Ninkasi
    • Oakshire
    • Pelican
    • Bear Republic
    • Firestone
    • North Coast
    • Oskar Blues
    • Boulevard
    • Ommegang
    • Southern Tier
    • Victory
    • All Merchant du Vin products: Sam Smiths, Rochefort, Orval, Ayinger, and more
    • All Vanberg & Dewulf products: Scaldis, DuPont, and more
    That doesn't even include the brands that AB has an ownership stake in like Widmer, Kona, Redhook, or Goose Island.

    Well, so much for that—not that I was ever "boycotting" in the first place.

    Looks hopeful for today (probably around noon). Hopefully we'll run into you, if you think you'll be around. Cheers!

    Last Drop has 3 or 4 cases left. Bottle limit of two per person at $13.29 each. Got my two, I'm happy.

    Thoughtful gesture, but please relax on that guys.

    Was only able to stop by briefly, but everyone had a great time there. Good dogs and good beer; what's not to like? Really, really liked the old lompoc C-sons greatings DIPA. So very, very fresh... my brother and his GF thought the cherry cider was excellent as well. Sigh... hopefully can make it by again tomorrow or Sunday. Truly, there just isn't enough time in the day! Cheers!!!
