    Heinen's in University Heights, and surely elsewhere, have four packs @ 15.99 and singles for 4. Seems to be plenty on hand for now.

    I have yet to see it in Vermont. Anyone see it anywhere in New England?

    Thought I was the only one! This year's is totally not as bourbony as last years, and not as oaky either. I still enjoyed the bottle I tried but 2015>2016 for sure.

    Agreed. Seems thinner than last year's but still very good. Love the format/price also.

    If I were emperor I would make it law that all beers came must come in sixers :slight_smile:. But yeah better a 4 pack than a single big bottle like some other BBA beers

    Just paid $11.99 for a 4pk at Wegmans in Malvern (outside Philly). This is the cheapest this beer has ever been around here.

    That's a damn good deal. I would buy a case at that price.

    Agreed - I think I'm going to skip the BCBS madness and just buy more BB.

    Chicago area has BB at $13.99-$16.99, with most at $14.99.
    Glad (or sad) to hear that BCBS madness is not just here in the Chicago area. We are lucky to have it at a lot of places, but people do get a little crazy.

    It finally dropped in North Jersey this week. I bought less than last year because it falls off after around 6 months.

    This just shows how amazingly different palates can be. I don't even feel like touching mine until 9-12 months after it's bottled.

    It has sat in south central PA for 2+ weeks at $12.99 per four pack. Hard to believe.

    $14.99 here in South Jersey .. I've went back four times and if there is any left I may buy a case this weekend.
    This one is quickly becoming one of my new favorite sippers and as it warms it is loaded with flavor . Pair it with some salty fresh oysters and your mouth will thank you :slight_smile:

    paid that price for half a decade, it always used to cost that much. Hard to call it the cheapest it has ever been..

    I've seen it at $13.99 to $14.99 at multiple locations in FL and SC this past month. Still plenty on the shelves as of last week. Worth every penny!

    I was able to get about 6 four packs over the last couple weeks, all for around $15 per.
