    LifeofBrian said we were not, but we are going to get the mythical Westy XIV packs instead.

    according to this: http://beerpulse.com/2012/11/westvleteren-xii-update-kentucky-indiana-and-state-by-state-tracking/

    MN isn't listed yet but they continue on to say:
    If your state isn’t listed here, it just means that we haven’t seen any news on it yet (there may still be hope, don’t fret).

    At this point, all signs are pointing to a nationwide release on Wednesday, 12/12/12.

    I haven't seen any hints or questions from the distros and liquor stores I follow/stalk so we might not know about who gets what until the store/distributor posts on Twitter or Facebook on the date it's shipped.

    That's what I've heard also. I think four bottles of beer and one glass are included.

    One gift-pack or one bottle? :wink:

    $90 bones is my more than my combined In/Out monthly beer budget. Damn...

    Per this post in the main forum, the three locations below will be getting the packs. Coordinated release of 12.12.12.

    I'll be watching the excitement from a distance. Too many pricey beers, too little money. Heritage is going to have a big week, what with this and Beer Geek Christmas.

    Heritage Liquor, Minneapolis
    Andy’s Liquor, Rochester
    West Side Liquors, St. Cloud

    I was wrong. The gift pack includes six bottles and two glasses. Suggested retail is $85.

    Honestly, I'd settle for one bottle and one glass, though I've heard the glasses are low quality.
