    Has to be marked as if it's regular Sil.

    It says "Barrel Aged" clear as day and is numbered. Guess I'll be heading back for more :slight_smile: Same WF had Mirror Universe mislabeled too, I believe.

    Yes, they are only scanning a barcode for regular Silhouette when you buy it. I only took one to save some for others. Also, I already stocked up so much before this.

    Grabbed a couple this evening but still some left in the cooler and on the shelf. Confirmed BA for $11. No idea why they are selling it this cheap.

    I saw a few individual bottles at MGM Wine & Spirits by Lake Calhoun over the weekend, but I have no idea how long they'll last.

    The Saint Paul Big Top (Midway) had 4-packs on Friday. There was also KBS and BADSDB sitting by the front register. If you go, you can see our fancy new soccer stadium and shop at the future home of a parking lot.

    Whole Foods downtown has some BA Silhouette, also for $11. Thinking of this thread, I went to Lift Bridge's website to see what the labels look like on the BA and non-BA versions (to make sure I wasn't missing something), and I don't even see the non-BA version on their website. Do they even make that one anymore?

    But I agree, it's a great beer, and $11 is a ridiculous price for it.

    They do not make non-BA Silhouette anymore. The reason there was a big boost in bottle count this year was because instead of only barrel-aging a fraction of the batch, they put all of it in barrels.

    Yeah, I'm really confused by this and wondering what Liftbridge reps would think if they were aware it was going on. Really curious if it was on person or not. I don't have any knowledge of beer wholesale prices but I have a hard time imagining that WF was making any money on these bottles. It's one thing to clear out old inventory that has long been paid for at below cost prices but these are relatively new and in demand. It's hard to imagine it wasn't a mistake.

    Another round of Sexy Hops seemed to hit the metro outskirts this week, anyone notice if any Mpls stores were blessed with a restock?
