    Anybody know any bottle shops in Denver to find Saison and/or East Bank?

    Saison and East Bank haven't been made or released in several months now. I would be very surprised if they were sitting around anywhere...

    What he said, @Shmee515 but...if you're on the hunt, try Mr. B's, Small Batch Liquors, Grapevine, or Mile High Wine and Spirits. If you're wiling to make a drive, I have found Casey at Base Camp in Frisco after the Denver stores have run out.

    I don't remember seeing East Bank but last time I stopped at Sopris in Carbondale (a couple weeks ago) they had a ton of saison left.

    Probably the Cascade Dry Hop Saison too since that was the biggest/most recent blend. It is fantastic too...

    Last week I cracked a batch 1 Leaner with some friends and was surprised at how good it was. This was my 3rd experience with it and the first two were pretty underwhelming by Casey standards. This one was probably a top 5-7 bottle. I was indifferent about him making it again, but now I'm pretty psyched to grab my bottles.

    I've had b1 Leaner 4 times, and fairly well spaced out from the time it was released until the most recent experience about 3 months ago. Every time I've had it it's been better and better.

    The first two times I had it I thought the same thing - definitely not one of my top 5 Casey beers and maybe top 10. The third time it was significantly better. And the most recent time probably placed it in my top 3 Casey beers. I can't wait to open another bottle!

    Yea, and if you want to drive a little further than that we still have Saison @ West Vail Liquor in Vail as well as a few fruit stands and Brett Loves Mosaic ( and maybe 1 Simcoe)

    Has Troy ever sold large format bottles for at home consumption?

    Not to the public, but members have been able to purchase magnums on a few very select occasions.

    There were several raffles for magnums in late 2014, and several releases in 2015 where Magnums were sold to the public.

    Interesting, this is news to me and I was at around 70% of releases in 2015 and all but one release in 2014 (also a member). Either way, Casey mags are very few and far between, definitely none sold to the public within the last year.

    Trying to pick up a bottle or two before heading out of state for the holidays, and I won't have time to make it up to Glenwood. I'm based in Boulder and don't have a good grasp on Denver bottle shops -- any recs of places that may have some good bottles this week? Thanks

    What Casey beers are currently on shelves? I'll be in town on Friday and would love to grab some, but none of those stores are anywhere near where I'll be staying, so need to know it's worth my while!

    It's Casey, it's worth your while. You won't find Cuts or CFPs, but you'll probably find some Stella Cherry FS, Brett Loves Simcoe, and a few others along those lines. If you're super concerned, call ahead.

    The saisons at Mile High are tasting fantastic right now. I believe there is the regular and the cascade dry hopped versions as well as Brett loves Simcoe (extremely underrated) and one of the Cherry Fruitstands.

    Awesome, thanks guys! I've had the regular saison many times, so I guess all I was wondering is if it was just that or other stuff. This definitely sounds like it's worth my while!
