Twin Cities Bottle Hunt - 2016 Edition

I believe I saw it at Rum River Spirits yesterday.

 

If anyone sees places selling singles of the latest Ballast Point beers (Watermelon Dorado, Mango Even Keel, Pineapple Sculpin) & cares to share where, I'd appreciate it. I'd love to buy sixers of each, but there's just too much perishable beer in the fridge right now!

 

You just need to get a group buy going with 6 people (I am assuming these come in 6 packs).

 

Tried the Pineapple Sculpin last night and much prefer regular or the grapefruit version. A good beer, but the pineapple was very light.

I was very surprised with the Watermelon Dorado. Really good at room temp. Think watermelon Jolly Rancher Dorado. Was weird at first, but as it warmed it really grew on me.

If you can't find singles, maybe that will sway your decision.

 

princetons has pineapple sculpin and watermelon dorado.

 

Any new Ballast Point sightings in the East Metro? Would appreciate a heads up. Woodbury/Oakdale/Cottage Grove area. Hoping to find singles...not sure I want to spring for a sixer of each...

 

What's the regular msrp? I saw one for $13. I'm surprised they would discount a imperial stout.

 

The Vintage in Chanhassen will break up any 6 pack you like and sell as singles. Singles prices are already loaded in their system for easy transaction.

 

Stone unfiltered at Byerlys Chanhassen 5 minutes ago.
PSue also, canned 12/28.

 

Sump at the Nova. Also Growler fills of Todd and Abrasive for $16.99

 

I just got mine. Sump is almost out. They only got like 3 cases, which is how much Abraxas they received two months ago.

 

Won't make it for that, but do you know what the price is? Also anyone have any idea how long the Todd growlers will last?

 

That's not really how it works.

 

It was only $19. I think Abraxas was at least $25 with tax when they got that. Todd might last until tomorrow, but will definitely be gone after the Dark Beer Fest.

 

Heritage has the fruits!

 

Abrasive canned 1/4 at F44.

 

If you want Light Speed from July, 1492 from August, Golden Nugget from September or Zeelander from October, Casanova's has you covered.

Couple Sump left on the shelf too

 

Plymouth Liquor Barrel

 

I just got a 6-pack of Hopslam cans there for $14.99. The sign said $16.99. Bonus!

 

So not to de-rail the current conversation but I'll be in Minneapolis one night on Feb 15th and I'm curious what bottleshop you all would recommend I check out for the sole purpose of the greatest selection of Beers I can't find in South Dakota. Mainly looking seasonals of some kind but nothing whale-esque.
