    Actually, they do sometimes. Or sometimes maybe folks are just giving a heads up that Binny's in general has it, and you should check with your nearest one?

    I'm actually at binnys right now, saw this, and asked. They have no clue what I'm talking about. Not going to say which binnys though to keep the mystery for you guys looking

    How about that for advocating?

    Starting to think they might not be telling the truth... Hopefully they have some more hanging around after I get off work.

    Thanks a lot. Now we have to call all the Binny's to see if you are in stock...

    Someone posted a pic on FB yesterday afternoon that Wheaton Mariano's had 5 cases of High Westified on the floor - way more info than necessary but nice to know to check all Mariano's.

    @croush is right - it's nice to get any kind of heads up that a beer is appearing at stores and it's best to just check in with your nearby/local/favorite stores. Once someone posts about a specific store, those limited beers are quickly gone. There are many stores that do not want it put out there that they have a limited beer, so I respect that first.

    No need to be a dick about it. I personally stopped at Binny's Grand to grab a six pack but was told that Binny's as a whole got a second shipment and it was being distributed amongst the stores.

    Everyone keeps mentioning this Binny's place; who is Binny, and why is everyone trying to buy their beer from him/her?

    The reason I made this thread is for that exact reason

    Speaking of @croush he has even PM'd when "epic beers" I've asked about in this thread get released. Good guy Croush.

    In case you're unaware, they're doing a lottery for the bottles. Yesterday (Madagascar) was kind of a clusterfuck, so they're trying to make it as fair as possible.

    Also, @beerbelly_mike, you can say you told me so!
