    TW Roseville was just told 20 min ago that their shipment isn't arriving today and now they aren't sure when they'll be releasing their allotment. Yikes.

    FWIW. I talked to the beer manager at a store in Plymouth yesterday and he got 6 cases of BA, he normally gets at most 2 cases of normal, and no BA darkness last year. He was shocked.

    The first day is ALWAYS a shit show for every release. As the week and weeks go on, the chase slows WAY down. DBDS was a mad rush when it came out, not it is on the shelf. From what I can tel, only the NW metro got it yesterday. Today alot of locations will get it.

    Good score! I'd take that six of High Westified over a bomber of BA darkness every day of the week and twice on Sunday (wait...not Sunday)

    You're welcome for leaving that last one for you, then. :wink:

    They probably wouldn't have sold me both of them, though.

    I think TW Maple Grove might still have some left? Probably should call ahead though.
