    According to Founders website, the other locations are Flying Saucer, World of Beer, Friendly Spot, The Point, and Luke. I think Luke may have been scratched though.

    Are they ever going to send bottles? Or just kegs?

    Bottles should be about a month after the initial release, from what I have heard at least.

    How hard is KBS to find in existing markets now? I'm getting tired of chasing beer. Plus people look at me weird when I roll into a bottle shop with a stroller.

    Looks like All Day IPA may not happen this week. No label approval yet per BEK.

    :slight_frown:
    Look at the general discussions in other regional forums..I'd say its still pretty hard. If you are tired of chasing down beer (I completely understand) then you probably shouldn't seek KBS out next year.

    I say I'm tired of chasing beer, but it's a horrible addiction. I probably will chase it down. Although I'd rather just have FBS.

    I had 2012 and 2013 KBS this weekend. Its OK, but I think I agree - Id probably rather just have FBS. Not worth the chase for me

    Curious if anyone on here knows if a keg of KBS made it to the red headed step child of TX aka San Antonio.

    All they had was Dirty Bastard, Centennial IPA & Reds Rye PA. I wanted to start my drinking with a session IPA & when I asked about All Day IPA. The "Friendly" bartender looked at me like I was a moron and said that's all they had. Is $7 a pint steep for Centennial IPA? Reminds me why I avoid Friendly Spot ever since the tap expansion and renovation. Someone has to pay for it.
