    They got label approval but Texas isn't listed as one of the states its coming to, what gives? Why would you spend the money if you don't plan on shipping here.

    DFH is trolling. A few more 90 minutes tonight and I'm gonna start taking this personally.

    It just very very recently got re-approval (like within the last month). I'd expect them to release some to Texas for the next batch in October. Until then, I'm sure there will be some around for IPA day this year in keg form (which has always kept coming to the state... Austin got it last year for IPA day at the Draught House and Flying Saucer).

    Gotta remember: we're the 2nd most populous state. They gotta ramp that shit up.

    Till then, make friends in the East. :slight_smile:

    When did 120minute first get to Texas? I put a bottle in the closet about a month or 2 after it arrived along with one of the original Avery Beast 18.9% bombers. I saw them the other day and couldn't recall how long it's been. Was it like 06? I think I will move them to the fridge.


    Edit: I just pulled them out and they are marked 2004 also found an Avery 11 back there.
    I might have waited too long on these.

    Nah, it should be delicious as long as you've kept it in a safe place.

    DFH 120min first-timer here. Is $18 for a single 12oz the going rate, or is my local store just making a killing?

    You can get em cheaper than $18 a piece at that awful auction site

    I would switch shops they probably overcharge on a limited released beer.

    Good to know...thanks! Glad I passed on the 120 and opted for a few bottles of Endeavour instead :slight_smile: Hopefully the owner or the other "beer guy" will be working next time I stop in so I can get an idea why they're charging so much.

    You must be close to Houston with the Endevour yeah anything over 12 is an overcharge, but if you haven't ever had it, I would get it just to try once. I love it.

    Picked up a bunch in Florida recently for $9.99/each at Whole Foods.

    Bottles haven't been in the Texas market for a while, but if all pricing stays the same, $9.99 will be our retail.

    $18 is ridiculous.
