    Oh man, hope I see some of those. That bundle of seven different BA massive! last year is my all-time favorite Tavour purchase.

    Blessed coming through for round 2. So my order went from packed to at my local distributor over night. I suspect tavour is putting a specific number of beers at regional hubs, offer it for sale, and just split it up at the hub and ship it locally. This seems to be a change from when my crate disappeared between Washington and Denver.

    Interesting. Probably "broken" bottles. Their algorithm is shite. I keep getting freaking pastry sours, ciders, and (mostly) BA stuff I could give 2 shits about.

    No, it was legitimately lost. When it showed up again after weeks of being Mia in 100 degree and freezing weather I opted out.

    The hype and buyers remorse is real

    I’d love to try the beer, but it’s like $50 for a 375, right?

    Also, not opening a tavour account just for that. My wallet gets fucked the way it is.

    Niw, maybe if I got to buy like 6 ADWTD, I might change my mind….

    I’m never fast enough to get anything anyway.

    Got the notification for blessed coming back a half an hour ago and now it's sold out.

    Sold out here now too. Somehow Fremont winter ale sold out in an hour. It's still on shelves here.

    Guessing this is referring to BADS Spice Wars? Unfortunately I missed it and it's the only Fremont I've seen in a while.

    Strangely I didn't see a second Blessed run at all, but I did see Rare Dos 3 Maker's Mark from Cycle which sold out pretty quickly.

    I saw Rare Dos 2 (HH) a week ago or so. Also sold out quick.

    I have a crate closing tomorrow. Maybe I'll extend it with hopes of fancy Christmas drops...

    No no, not b bomb. Thus is the 8% non barrel aged beer that b bomb is loosely based on. It's a great beer in its own right, one I can drink my own weight in it seems. But 4 packs are all over my distribution area. For less than a 2x from tavour. I'm surprised is all.

    What the fuck tavour? If I get a crate that's all under the radar beers it shows up early. If my crates have ANY hyped beers my crates go missing? MOaS blessed pfreim all in this crate. Nobody knows where it is. Last crate that was lost had B1 wendigo.

    Abraxas sits on shelves around here now. Wild to think how people used to chase trucks for that beer (myself being one of them.)

    Never saw Cycle 8 year here in MO. Latest two bottles are Allagash's Kriek and Tough Love [Banished] 2021. In fact, haven't seen any of these barleywines people are talking about: MoaS or pFriem's.

    That really sucks man. Yeah, I let my crate close with 3 beers in it because I was worried about "breakage." We shall see what happens. Said it shipped yesterday.
