    Wow. There's no way they got 12 cases in to assure everyone in line 2 bottles. And there's still 20 minutes to go. There will be a lot of people turned away empty handed.

    Here's hoping Bottles & Cans releases KBS like they did BCS - With the raffle and tastings.

    All gone at DG, about half the line didn't get any including me. Guess I'll be heading to another binny's tomorrow before work

    The line was big but I got there just in time, got my two bottles. They sold out about 5 people behind me.

    I thought it was smooth too, granted they didn't have enough for everyone, but once the line started moving I was out of there in like 10 minutes.

    I spoke with Carly on Tuesday and she said they would be doing something similar to the BCS release.
    She said something would be on their facebook page soon.

    Bolingbrook at 6pm on Friday. 2 per

    Again, check out the Founder's website http://foundersbrewing.com/find-our-beer/

    Call around to places that already carry Founder's. If a store doesn't get Founder's they aren't going to get KBS. I've had zero luck calling large grocer stores (other than Whole Foods, according to people in this post) and places like Trader Joe's.

    I propose the mods change your BA handle to "CaptainKBS".

    I've been shut out around Joliet and Oswego so far. The Founders app isn't saying where KBS is available either.

    Orland Wine & Spirits told me they just got some in when I called around 5pm yesterday.....$10 singles. I didn't stop in so not sure how much they got or if it's still there

    Just helping out. After trying a 2014 KBS last night, I must admit that I prefer Bourbon County more.

    The app won't tell you where you can find KBS. It will tell you where Founders products are sold. Use that information to call around.
