    Ok, so I thought I'd start a thread for any limited to semi limited releases in the area. Rather than separate threads for each beer and each area of CA.

    I seem to have missed several things this (Peche n Brett, ADWTD) and I've noticed some threads looking for beers I've seen come and go. I thought it would be cool.

    So not much of a big deal, but Saint Archer Mosaic DIPA has hit my local spot in OC and Hammerland is supposed to hit some distro on Friday too.

    An obvious one here, Parabola should be hitting most major shops starting on the 21st.

    Alamanac Farmers Reserve Strawberry should be showing up in OC in the next week or so. Also, because of distribution to NY now, OC and LA shops dont get as many cases.

    This is a great example, probably not a beer that is worthy of it's own thread, but something I'd want to be on the lookout for.

    Great idea! Been kind of annoying recently to hear something great came out and I missed it by just THAT MUCH.

    It's just gonna taste like all the other Farmers Reserves. But with a splash of band-aid.

    (I keed, I keed... sorta)

    Hehe, yeah, it's funny how almost every one has the same BA rating.

    I thought there was supposed to be an Almanac Cognac Noir release. Has anyone seen anything about that?

    Another way to go about watching releases is following a few local beer stores on instagram, most of the ones who specialize in craft beer these days post all the special/limited type stuff they get in pretty instantly. Just another option.

    I had a couple bottles transferred down from K&L Redwood City for pickup at the Hollywood location. They restocked it once and it hung around for a couple of days.

    Talked to my local guy about this, they're only going to be at bars. No liquors stores(unless in the immediate area to the brewery) are getting cases.

    It's tough to find it though, a lot of the local craft places don't carry Noble. I guess Artisan can be tough to deal with.

    Post up if anyone knows any specific locations.

    I've seen Noble's releases regularly at a lot of the better Whole Foods in L.A., plus Vendome Beverly Hills.
