    I think it's actually 14.5 and 13.8 for 2016. I think the 14.3 was 2015's higher ABV version.

    Nobody at the bar was drinking it besides me when I was there. It's more of a PBR/Bud Light crowd whenever I've gone in. Their list on beermenus was updated yesterday and it was still listed so you might be in luck. I may do the same thing after work if it's still on.

    I am going to be in Lincoln Park area super bowl weekend. I am really hoping to find some BCBS on tap around there. I will check out beermenus as it seems that has some solid info to find it on tap.

    Anyone know if finding actual BCBS in bottles at any of the shops would be a pipe dream or possible reality? Have some in person trades set up to land a few bottles but never hurts to grab more.

    I haven't seen any bottles on shelves in a few weeks - doesn't mean its impossible, but its certainly going to be a tall order. If you're looking to grab a couple extra let me know I can help you out.

    Once in a blue moon Binny's had them on their shelves, but I'm not sure if they had them in stock in the last two-three weeks.

    Ive had it in the past. Its a pretty mediocre varient IMO. I hate Koval though and think its a waste of perfectly good BCS using those barrels.

    Galleria Liquors in Southport still has a bunch of regular and barleywine sitting out, but they still have them for a reason. They are charging $29.99 for regular and $39.99 for barleywine.

    Galleria is pretty well-known for price-gouging, so I'd imagine most of us 1) refuse to grab BCS (especially THIS year) at that price and 2) don't want to give them any business.

    Country Fresh Market next door to Hopcat has Barley and Reg still. Good for out of towners who want to try fresh local on draft and then go next door to take home some BCBS stuff. That being said they sold them for $20 a bottle last year, so be prepared to pay more.

    They sold regular for $20 last year at Country Fresh? I did buy a Coffee there last year for $20 :flushed:, so figured regular would've been lower. But, you're right in general, I'm sure their prices are higher than what most of us around here want to pay.
