2014 Bourbon County Brands release - Chicagoland

Thanks @Jaycase for tracking down all this info and sharing it with everyone here. Hopefully it will help me (and everyone else following) to land some of this covered nectar. True BA.

 

Anyone see what Buffalo Grove's limits will be.

 

Is this all Berkots I assume?

 

Yes all berkots

 

I wasn't able to interpret Ken's tweet

. @GooseIsland BCS will release at 9am this Friday. Limits are set & more to spread around this year. Last year the line started before 7am

Does more to spread around mean they got more this year or does it mean limits will be lower than last year, therefore there will be more to spread around based on similar allocation. Last year limits were 1 4 pack of regular, 1 bottle of coffee, 2 bottles of Barleywine, 1 Prop, 1 Backyard.

 

@Jaycase Owns this thread! Very good work dude.

 

I am coming down from Milwaukee for the tasting event at GI Clybourn. My session is at 4:00, I was hoping to hit a smaller shop on the way down maybe around 2:00. Does anyone have a recommendation for a shop near my route that might have a good selection at that time?

 

Here's my recommendation... Get here earlier.

 

I think it means they got more than last year and there will be limits imposed based on turnout. I would guess that you'll get at least what you got last year.

 

Obviously but not an option.

 

How many people last year were at Buffalo Grove. It's 15 min farther than other location for me. Other location is doing only one of prop or vanilla

 

Anyone heard what South Loop is doing?

 

This is all well and good @Jaycase, but what about the people that aren't on BA and rely on going to these local liquor stores to get ANY bourbon county. The people on this site are informed enough to find out where to get bourbon county on their own.
