Bell's Bourbon Barrel Aged Expedition Stout 2018

3:05pm: record number of week long vacation requests submitted from General Store employees

 

We have about 350 bbls. worth of this beer. It will hit distro. Might take a bit to get to smaller Bell’s markets.

 

BA TCOA bottles- look for those on E Day.

 

*swoon*

 

And on October 10th, 2018, @LarryBell decided he was going to drop two bombs on BA. Well done.

 

Will that be 12/7? Was actually discussing this with a friend yesterday.

 

Wow thank you for the updates! I will be on the hunt when the time comes!

 

Even Brewers are using these abbreviations. I don't even know what this is. Gosh I can't keep up.

 

Third Coast Olde Ale. It was mentioned a few posts back.

 

Thank you. Just didn't put two and two together and was focused on thinking of stouts.

 

E-Day is eccentric day also as an FYI. If you haven’t been, definitely try to go. It’s absolutely magical, and one of the most fun beer days of the year.

 

@LarryBell , you just made my day. My month, really.

Cheers!

 

Really appreciate the info as this was one of my favs of 2017 too. Distro going to be MI only like last time, or to other states too?

 

Distribution to other states too.

 

Will it be in four-packs of 12-ounce bottles again, and what will the price be for them?

Thanks!

 

These forums are not for reasonable and practical questions. You should leave.

 

Clearly it's going to be hyped into artificial scarcity and sold only to ticket holders even though it's going to be widely distributed in overpriced bombers....oh wait, that's the CBS release (again)

 

These are questions more for your local retailer in all likelihood. No reason to think it will not be released in 4 packs of 12 oz bottles. However, your local retailer might very well break them down and sell the bottles individually. Also pricing could vary wildly from SRP. I believe 4pks were selling for 28 last time at the general store so use that as your pricing floor perhaps.

 

I expect to pay $28-35 if I can find it. If the price guys higher, they won't be selling them as 4 packs, but individual bottles for $12 each.

 

I know that this is one is extremely hyped and I hate being that guy, but I just don't get it. IMO, Bell's makes another BBA stout that is better. So do Founders and Dark Horse and others. This thread will be fun to watch in the next few weeks.
