Black Note 4 Packs - Chicagoland?

Was out and about in the SW burbs on Wednesday and no one really seemed to know much of anything. The small shops had no clue, some had never even heard of BN. All I got from Binny's was "we hope so" and "maybe check back this week."

 

Talked to a guy at one of the south sub binnys... he seems to think they will not be getting any. He said it will probably only be a handful of stores in burbia that get any.

 

I heard one distributer had only 5 cases for the West region. I'm not too familiar with that side of the biz, but it appears that minimal amounts are making their way out...BCBS Cherry rarity

 

This thread needs to be called "Black Note 12oz Singles-Chicagoland".
No one is gonna be selling 4packs because 1/case/store if they get any.

 

Armanettis in Aurora was selling 4 packs today, same with corner cottage in elmhurst yesterday. Both out now. But there are places selling it by the 4 pack

 

yaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwn

Anybody want this? Wheres my BCBS?? While it is the closest attempt; it has an off flavor, one I can not describe. I smell it and taste it....BCBS does not have this weird flavor.
I'll take any BCBS over black note.

Hopslam is obviously nice as always.....Anxious to try it on tap.

 

YES!

 

Maybe you should be drinking coffee instead. I've heard people say you get weird off flavors when you taste and yawn. Weird I know.

 

Damn I was in the corner yesterday buying hopslam. How did I miss this? Damn, damn, damn.

 

The closest attempt? It's nothing like BCBS. Maybe that off flavor is balance?

 

BCBS>Ditka>BN

 

Bite your tongue!

 

I was at Woodman's in North Aurora asking for Hopslam, and the girl at the counter brings me out a 4-pk of Black Note. I must have looked at her weird because she goes "wait, isn't this what you wanted?" I told her I'd take it. They were out of Hopslam though. Sold through 40 cases. Balls.

Also, I haven't tried BN yet, but Ditka>BCBS for sure. And I love BCBS.

 

South Loop Binny's sold out of Black Note in 40 minutes. Limited to 1 12 oz. bottle per person.

 

Woodmans North Aurora is sold out FYI

 

Yep just called woodmans and they are out!

 

Vav's taking a "vacation from his problems." (Name that film.)

 

Come on now.
