Dissident and Abyss Update

I was just asking because they got Dissident. Wishful thinking lol

 

Dee at Bobby's Liquor had something interesting to say on Instagram about The Dissident: http://instagr.am/p/ReA0uSNZwS/

I really hope Deschutes gets their shit together in the south bay for The Abyss release.

 

I wish their distribution was wider.

 

Anyone know when Abyss will hit the STL area?

 

waiting for this beer to get to Sacramento is driving me insane.

 

Anyone knw any online shops that sell Abyss and ship?

 

Check out Marina Market

 

Theoretically I got 2 bottles of Abyss from Brewforia. I'll believe it when it gets here.

 

Fo real, ISO 2012 Abyss. I got a 2011 from a friend, and was not into it. But, I heard this wasn't the year to have. The variants of barrels just didn't mix IMO. I want the regular.

 

Spoke to the Deschutes Rep at the Hungry Monk last week and while I understood that the Dissident is stored in a separate part of the brewery to avoid cross-contamination it is also bottled on a separate bottling line. Apparently there were multiple issues this year and the end result was a lot fewer bottles of the Dissident than anticipated.
Sounds plausible....??

 

Scored a bottle of Dissident at France 44 just last Saturday on a fluke... Went in to see if there was a chance they had the Abyss yet and of course not, but Jake (IIRC) hooked me up with the stray bottle he had found in the back. Sorry to whichever stock guy was hiding it. Find a better spot next time.

May have been the last bottle for sale in the Twin Cities....if only i had used that luck on a lottery ticket.

 

They are out, any other online places?

 

I know, I got the last of them!

 

LOL that was me who asked him about the dissident on instagram, never thought I would see it referenced here. You might wanna call but I think he's been given the ok to sell it. At least from this instagram post of dee's he has

Really?!? I almost stopped by there on Friday! You win sir!

 

I found 10 bottles of Abyss on a shelf in a TC store on Wednesday, and sheepishly grabbed them all and headed up to the register, fully expecting to be slapped on the wrist and told "limit-1". Nope. Skol

 

Anyone know what this is selling for around CO or other states? My local shop just got it in, but they always seem to be a little high.

How's it drinkin so far?

 

Got a bottle of Abyss for $17.50 from LetsPour.com They had it on Saturday but it was sold out in a couple of hours.

 

I just picked up a bottle from Mr. B's today for $14.99. They are the first shop here in Denver I've seen it at

 

$15 in CO, beer guy at my local shop said they got 3 cases and were told that was it for the year. He said they got 18-20 cases last year (in mult. shipments). Limit was 2 bottles.
