    In my little city of Lafayette Indiana most of the liquer stores got shut out this year...... but Meijer had tons. They said limit 2 per customer, but I didn't get stopped until walking in for my fifth trip. I will settle for 8 bottles. Better than I did on Black Note.

    Sounds like you are proud of this???? I'm sure the othe craft beer enthusiasts in Lafayette appreciate your performance.

    If we all liked the same stuff, it would be boring. I personally think BCBS is in a way higher class than BN, but could see a different palate thinking otherwise. Despite both being non-adjunct BA stouts, I see them very differently.

    Couldn't agree more with this. It's too bad more people do not.

    Found 4 packs for sale when I stopped at a random beer/convenience store in Lansing. I was quite surprised.

    I think the store was called Oades. Didn’t buy any as I live near the brewery, but I thought it would sell out quicker than it has.

    Anyone in the area of Battle Creek can get 8 four-packs if you want to stop by Horrock's. I think they were $24.99 plus tax and dep.

    Amazing that BN is still sitting on store shelves.

    Does anyone know the status of Whiskey Barrel Aged Cherry Stout? Will this be making it into distribution?

    Not sure but Bells just posted last night that they have a lot of it in the coolers at the General Store.
    I love having this much production coming from Bells/Founders

    Man, I’ve been feeling this a lot lately. I think the folks that have been around for awhile remember when moments like these were insanely rare. Especially with something like BN. Our gut reaction is to grab what we can. But, I constantly remind myself I don’t need a ton of it all. There’ll be something just as good next week. We truly are living in an age with remarkable offerings week after week.

    I almost bought more CBS last week, it was just sitting there, priced at $24.99. Apparently the owner doesn't use Facebook so the only people buying it are his regulars.

    Not along 94 but it is still popping up every now and then. My local Meijer (Howell) put I'm guessing in the neighborhood of 8-10 cases of 4-packs on the shelf in December. Its gone now though.
