2014 Backwoods

Are you "ISO: Shipping Label"?

 

Not yet

 

where in dallas? I picked up for 13.99, limit one 4 pack. Whole foods told me they weren't able to receive today because of a "UPC error" and to check back Friday.

 

Was able to procure a case at both the Beer Yard ($86.56 + tax) in Wayne, PA, and Moore Beverage ($90 + tax) down near Tony Luke's in the city. Also of note...Moore has a half barrel of this for $439.99....for you diehard enthusiasts.

 

Total Wine Lewisville.

Lonestar got it in also...not sure of the price

 

So Founders lied and released it 10/31 at the brewery instead of 11/3 like they said before?

 

yeah, I got mine at lonestar.

 

10.99 and 13.99 around Ft. Bragg, NC

 

Kay's Wine and Spirits in CT has some if anybody in Hartford county is looking for it..

 

Well that's exciting! I'll be right by there for work tomorrow!

 

Total Wine at North Hills said they were getting a shipment of it tomorrow FYI.

 

Was 14.99 here in Wooster/Orrville.

 

Not quite, Nov3 was the national distro release date. They openly announced via social media that they were releasing BB @ the company store on 10/31 as a gesture for the locals.

 

Questioned a rep I ran into last night - in warehouse now, but won't roll it out until beginning of next week. I think we have the same distro in central VA as NoVA for Founders.

 

Picked up a 4 pack in Covington, $14.99.

 

Wow..I over paid for a case at Moore Beverage

 

Nothing in Tampa yet

 

It's probably hard to compare prices between states to some degree. I'm not familiar with taxation but I know with liquor I always stock up when I'm out of state because prices are much better (at least in Ohio and Missouri compared to Michigan). That said, there's a fair amount of gougery going on in Livingston county. I had Tuesday off work and was planning a drive over to the brewery for my 2 cases....until I called Monday night and they had sold all 6 pallets of the allotment for the General store. I could only find 2 stores in the area with it. First had 5 cases selling limit of 1 4-pack for $18.99 each. Other store had 1 case that they didn't know they had, had never sold it before so didn't know what to price it at, so said $15.99 for 4-pack. I would have gladly picked up 2 cases at Founders for the $83 each compared to what I'm seeing.

 

I had the opportunity to try a 4-year vertical last night (2011-2014). The 2011 was past its' prime, I got tartness from it that was not present in the other vintages that I had. 2014 is great, but could use some mellowing IMHO - the taste is great but the bourbon aroma is a little overpowering. 2012 and 2013 were fantastic.

On an unrelated note, I also got to have some Bolt Cutter again, and it was delicious. I am really wishing I had saved another bottle
