    Alright, just posted to Twitter.

    This won't be as clean as a new thread, but I don't have enough information to justify. Sounds like Silver Eagle has received the second wave of Bourbon County and will be shipping it this/next week.

    We will be releasing Friday morning at Spec's Smith St. We will have Coffee (Limit - 3) and Barleywine (Limit - 3) along with a little bit more of regular (I'll make a call by the time of the release)

    I was told by the GM of a Dallas TW that his stores would not be getting any Regal and he isn't sure why. Not sure if that applies to all retailers or not.

    Regal definitely hit at Spec's in Austin. Hoping it does the same here.

    We'll see Regal next Black Friday. Stop whining everybody, it's just beer, and you will get it, it will just be a year.

    Dallas doesn't matter, in this thread or in life.

    Regal has come to Texas, that's already known. Other stores in Houston have confirmed they are getting it, so obviously the biggest store in Texas will be receiving it too. Why aren't you releasing it?

    Maybe he wants to put it back and has other releases planned. Who knows, it's his employers stock and apparently they leave the distribution up to him. How many times have people come in this site and defend a store owner/employees prerogative on when and who they distribute the, OMG it's whalez bro, beers to.

    We aren't special enough to buy precious beer that was sent to Houston as a premier city.

    We are expected to wait until it is seen fit by the beer gods.

    Best to spread the hype out over 3 Friday events, commonly known as "Black, Blacker, and Blackest" Friday

    You must be new...the variants are different every year. So good luck with getting Regal next year.

    WF will get Regal...being the release city and Specs being the largest retailer in town...why no Regal???

    He meant that Joey would purposefully hold it until next Black Friday.

    I don't see why Specs would hold it back for Black Friday 2016. @TheGentleman wouldn't do that...say it ain't so!

    I agree, just stating what lilsquiggz was getting at. Not that there would be new Regal next year, but just year aged Regal.
