    So, where will DR 15 land first? Is there a spreadsheet of release dates? Bars with it on tap?

    I'm taking a half day off from work and working from home the rest, so plan on scoring some of this no matter what. Figure I might as well start at Specs midtown with all the other fanatics. Is anyone there already?

    I would be more inclined to tell you to go away. This will be easily available at most places for at least a week. Needing a "game plan" is pretty LOL.

    I'll probably go to Specs around 10:15 to let any line die out, DRs don't sell out there immediately anymore right?

    Definitely will not be at the usual spots for a week, but I have found the last 2 a week or so after release at places I had never bought beer from before

    Understood about the last two DRs sitting as they weren't a big hit. Don't expect that to be the case this time as DR15 is a remake of DR5, which was the best DR, IMO.

    Game plan? Wait a couple of days and walk into a grocery store on my weekly trip and find it.

    Maybe in Houston you have to have a game plan to get any limited releases? lol

    This is DR. This is not 5 years ago when everyone went crazy for it. Now, it is fairly easy to come by at most stores. It is not that limited that you have to remotely plan for.

    Spec's still wants you to think you need to plan for it according to twitter. Early lunch anyone?

    I imagine this will go quicker than 14, but not THAT fast. Like others have said it should last at least a week.

    All the big name spots will be sold out by end of tonight. Then it becomes a seek and destroy adventure.
