    Where can I find Backwoods Bastard this long after the initial release?

    Where are you located in Indiana? Some of the larger bottle shops on the north side of Indy might still have some lying around.

    Don't quote me on that though, but I've been surprised more than a few times.

    Same. I have a case in my cellar. How close to Illinois are you, and how much are you looking for?

    I'm greater-Lafayette area; anybody drive past on I-65 or have any suggestions on where to call around Indy?

    only lookin' for 2-4 bottles

    Hopefully you can find some. I'd be surprised it's still on shelves somewhere, but that's based on how fast everything flies off the not-even-on-the-shelves-yet here.

    Worst case, there are definitely people on here (myself included) that have plenty to go around/setup a trade.

    I'm in south-central MI, and I can think of a bottle shop or two that still had some as of a couple weeks ago. Wasn't cheap though - $7-8 a bottle.

    yikes, that's on par with what KBS was around here...sounds increasingly like a trade is gonna be the way to go unless there is some hidden gem of a bottle shop and I get lucky (both of which are unlikely)

    I imagine a fair number of people are passing through where I'm at en route to Dark Lord Day, and I have some limited-distribution/release stuff I overbought and been looking to trade anyhow...not sure why, but I'm wary of shipping

    it seems a lot of the places BeerMenus.com haven't been updated and are sold out or are just a bit too far...unfortunately the places around here aren't even listed for things I know for a fact they have

    Yeah it's not foolproof but it's better than nothing.

    I bought a bunch at Founders about a month ago. Not sure if they still have it.

    My cellar is too full and I need to drink it down. I have 3 bottles of BB left. I would be happy to give them to you. If you are going to be on the north side of Indy any time soon, then let me know. I will be in Lafayette for work on April 27 (assuming I am not still hung over from DLD) and could arrange a drop then.
