    Not sure about that L Knife stuff. Not saying it’s wrong per se, but Craft New England is a subsidiary of L Knife / Sheehan Companies. So that logic would say there would be no variants supplied to the Craft footprint. Which is a large % of eastern new england. I think they now have distro in VT via Catamount and even eastern NY & parts of CT. could be a dry thanksgiving fam.

    L. Knife is a bud house. Craft Boston and Seaboard are not they only sell craft brands (like Lagunitas, founders, new belgium, yuengling, Downeast cider and more) and at that they don’t sell the goose island and high end AB portfolio of beers. I used to work for Craft Boston, so speaking from what I used to stock and sell.
    L. Knife is the only one who carries all those products and they pick and choose at best what they do carry.
    Quality Beverage another distributor for Norfolk County and south of that carries Budweiser and the high end portfolio, they also push those brands as well thus they get variants. Where I live in Franklin, this area usually has variants.

    You live in Franklin and commute to Kingston!? Props for that. I’m actually moving to Franklin soon. Do you have favorite store in that area?

    Variants will be at Kappy's in Medford (first come first serve) and Liquor Junction in Woburn (unknown) on Friday.

    Also have a friend that works in the Newport area that purchased Fog and #4 from a local liquor store.

    I just moved from Franklin, the best you're going to find in town is Liquor World, in the area is Crafted in Holliston.

    Check out Union Liquors on Union St. though, especially if you're looking for BCBS. It's not a super crafty store, but they generally get a decent amount of BCBS and price it very competitively. I think I paid $12.99 for standard last year. If you're looking for IPA's there just make sure you check dates, they don't get a ton of turnover.

    Just regular, or variants as well?

    I’d be curious which places, even if they did sell out already?

    I'd also like to know. Ft. Point Market indicated on their IG that no Birthday was making it to MA.

    The only thing about Village Mall is that they're super expensive, their liquor selection especially.

    To answer my own question, regular only. And at $20, I’ll pass.

    A friend grabbed me the basic set on his travels. I got regular, caramella, Kentucky fog, and #4. $14, $18, $25, and $25, respectively.

    Colonial Spirits in Stow has #4 and Kentucky Fog for $24.99 each. About a case of each left.
