Is Bourbon County Stout 2021 a myth?

FTFY.

 

Saw quite a bit of it in NEPA yesterday, but none of the "premier" variants. Saw the cherry wood, 14, and base, which is pretty much all I buy these days anyway.

 

Saw about 6 bottles of regular and 1 Cola at a store yesterday. Passed for now. No interest in Cola (just sounds weird to me).

 

Did not see ant Bourbon County Stout yesterday, but saw and purchased Brooklyn Black Ops in 16oz cans. I enjoy Black Ops more and it seems they lowered the price or the store made a error, Last year the 4 Roses Black Ops was selling for over $20:00 a 750. The 4 pack of pints was only $14:99.

 

I was able to get a couple of ‘21 in Canada. In Canada!

Not to brag, but I secured the full allocation available here. Two whole bottles of the ‘21 original! 2!

 

5 pages worth of help (and, likely, some complaints and failures) at https://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/help-adding-images-to-forum-posts.620136/

 

I bought 3 bottles at a local Sam's Club, the Binnys next door did not have anyone waiting I line at 9:00 am when they opened. In previous years there long lines.

 

The recently released 4-pack is actually the "Four Roses small batch" variant aged in Four Roses bourbon barrels. To your point it's much cheaper than standard Black Ops for some reason. I too purchased a 4-pack, and I'm hoping you enjoy it more than I did because, while not bad, I found the taste to be overwhelmed by the bourbon which isn't usually an issue for me in BBA beers.

 

I bet everyone's beanie baby collection here is off the chain huge... or Pokémon for the younger crowd...

 

Most local mom-and-pops around here I follow listed one-per limits each.
The one time I go to Total Wine is for BCBS. \They had pallets full of base, and stacks of 3 of the varients - cola, coconut and cherry. Plus vintage 20, 19, and 18 (those were a buck less than the new... weird.) and a few cases of one of the varients from 20 - the carmella, I think - the green label. I grabbed 6 base and a cherry. That's all I'll need.
No posted limits on anything. In my experience there, no one tells anyone else if there is a limit, unless it's hidden behind the CS counter near the registers.

 

according to another BA, only one of the variants ran out yesterday, can't remember which one.

 

My Facebook timeline is a constant stream of BCBS stuff. Some verticals, including 2021.

Personally, I didn't go out for any. Only ones I would really want to pay for are the ones seemingly everyone else wants. And I'm not putting up with the hunt for that.

 

Double Barrel with Sazerac. That was one I didn’t get, then tasted in the tasting room and regretted it.

 

regretted that you tasted it or regretted that you didn't get it?

 

They now do online allocation due to covid.

 

went back and looked, credit where credit is due.

 

I bought a DB myself but at 48 dollars for a 16.9 oz bottle, I hardly consider it a bargain. At that price it is likely the most I’ve ever paid per oz for any beer. Will update sometime in the next year when I crack it.

 

Some of those double barrel one's sounded interesting.
Would've def picked up a rum barrel.

The Hyvee down the road from me had a palate full of cases of the 2021 regular at $13.99 a bottle. The variants were $15.99 to $54.99. The only variants I saw they had left were a couple of cases each of the Cola and Cherrywood. Rest must have sold out. Unless they were storing the others behind the counter, which they do sometimes.
