    For some reason i thought Bois was out around this time last year. Just wondering if anyone has seen Sucre or has any info when it'll be hitting?

    It started hitting the market late last week. We have it in stock now and should be at most shops by the end of the week.

    Curious why places are putting bottle limits on it. There was a ton of Bois last year and due to price point, it sat around for a long time. I think it was STILL at shops in Portland last time I was down the.

    Seems odd unless there's some inside scoop hinting that there's a lot less of Sucre to go around.

    Bois is definitely still on the shelf around Portland. i wouldn't be surprised if Beermongers still has a case next to the register.

    It has started showing up here. Elliott Bay Pizza in Mill Creek has it so others must also.

    Beers with limits mean they're whales and we need to rush out and buy, right? :slight_smile:

    Pretty sure I saw a couple empty bottles behind the counter at Chuck's last Saturday morning. But none available for purchase.

    They have it at Malt And Vine for $31.99. And if it's not on the shelf, ask at the counter as the guy said they have more in the back.

    We have LOTS of Bois in Vancouver still. If anyone wants a few cases let me know! lol. Will be down to Seattle/PDX sometime in the not too distant future. It's around $30-35CDN here.

    Is Bois any good? I didn't feel like shelling out 30+ George Washingtons to find out.

    It's pretty tasty, although it's not my favorite out of their anniversary ales. I'd definitely search for a bottle of Sucre or Fruet first.

    Depends what you like. I found it to be a sweet, boozy mess, but obviously not everyone feels that way (based on BA review scores). If you like sweet, barrel aged, high alcohol malt bombs, then you'll probably like Bois.

    I personally loved Bois, but haven't had it in almost a year.
