    In Ohio, I'm drowning in Narwhal, Breakfast Stout, Wulver & Backwoods. #CraftBeerProblems

    Wulver > Backwoods. Definitely different takes on the style though. Love em both.

    We still have cases of Pumking in a few ABC stores down here at the original Oct price and some Breakfast Stout and Backwoods. I'd like to find a few more bottles of Narwhal but its totally AWOL.. Damn Obama !!!

    I would love to find another 4-pack of Backwoods here. I wasn't sure I was going to like it; I loved it! I'd love to have my other two fresh bottles, and still be able to age some.

    Curious to know how much Wulver goes for in Ohio. Ridiculously expensive here...only by the bottle @ just over $10.

    It's not cheap. $24/4-pack and usually $6-7/single bottle, but better than $10+ dollars a bottle.

    I was kind of referring to myself as my buddy and I have 10-12 bottles or so left between us. We bought it every time we saw it and then we realized it was kind of bountiful this year.

    Grumpy's in Ashtabula had it as of last week if I recall correctly.

    I just noticed some in Chicago last weekend - I wasn't sure if there were some remaining cases turned up, or if this store is just slow to rotate their inventory - they have a surprisingly decent selection, but some if the stuff just sits.

    No idea the name, but it's on Lawrence just east of California, shares a parking lot with a taqueria. The BB was in the cooler. I think there were 2-3 4-packs.

    It ages very well. In fact I prefer it with at least a year behind it rather than fresh.

    I'd love to hear about some in the suburbs, but think it's a long shot at this point.

    Absolutely. I haven't seen or heard of any in the western burbs in awhile.

    I still have like 3/4 of a case of Backwoods. I'd really like to get rid of some of it, actually. I may need to have a Backwoods drinking party.

    Wulver is still sitting on shelves in some places around Pittsburgh. $24.99 for a four. I definitely thought it was tasty and a LITTLE better (smoother) than Backwoods, but not worth the increased price.
