Any luck at Costco?

not just a michigan thing....this is true for every state. I got a case of Bourbon County at Costco in 2014....

 

Never seen anything worthwhile at the Costco's here in MI. With that said, when Hopslam came out, it was like $14.50/6 pack and sold out immediately that day at all the stores in metro Detroit - with no limits. I heard stories of BCBS in other states but never here in MI. Good luck.

 

This is apparently not true in every state. I thought it was, in 2014 when BCBS hit some Costcos I went in to buy a couple cases. Had a huge argument with the manager about it and he took me into his office and showed me on their website the clause that refers to being able to buy liquor without a membership. It depends on the state's laws and many states have laws prohibiting requiring a membership to buy alcohol from any establishment. Apparently IL used to have a law like this, and a few years ago the law changed. Now IL is not on the list of states that Costco will allow alcohol sales without a membership.

That said, I bought a membership. Totally worth it as we shop there regularly now.

 

Only good thing I ever found at Costco beer related was the four-pack of Stone bombers for like $15-$16 a couple years ago. That was a hell of a deal since it included IRS.

Recently they have this 4 pack of Sierra Nevada, (25 oz bottles maybe?) for $30. It includes BA Bigfoot. Can't remember the other beers. Not sure if that is a good deal or not.

 

I see Dragon's Milk bombers regularly. I haven't noticed the price, but my friend said he paid $8 for one.

 

Best I've seen at the Auburn Hills Costco is Dragons Milk bombers. They have 30 packs (or is it 15) of Two Hearted Regularly.

 

F-ing Illniois bastards.....messing things up. I thought it was a federal thing.....but yeah, I have a membership now for many other reasons.

 

The two Costcos near me (near west Chicago burbs) don't have anything decent. One of them used to have a rack of bombers, but not anymore. They never had anything limited anyways.

 

The costco's in MN have surly for a pretty good price. Todd the axeman, abrasive, & wet for under $15 a 4 pack is generally the cheapest around.

 

I think it was 3 years ago that I heard about this 'exception rule' in a thread about Utopias being available at a Costco. I drove 75 miles to my closest one in Kentwood and bought a bottle.

 

$13 bottles of Blushing Monk when that was last released. Mostly large format bottles at good prices.

 

Madison, Wi (middleton?) has New Glarus fruit bombers (rasp tart, cherry belgian, ect) for $10, usually cost save a couple bucks vs most places in Sconnie.

 

Good call. I've picked up the last few Backstage Series releases there at the lowest price around.

 

The Costcos in Cincinnati don't sell alcohol .

 

Used to have bombers at my local Costco, not anymore. Have beer camp, and pseudo sue 24 packs though lately!

 

let me know anytime you want to send me a Pseudo Sue 24 pack from Costco.....

 

I purchased BCS on Black Friday 2015 at the Naperville Costco without a membership.
