    Supposed to be seeing this box set land in Boston area markets next week or so. Assuming retail will hit about $20, as most of you have seen. But, given demand in the area, allocation might be tough. Expect no more than a case or three per typical store.

    Source: I'm the beer buyer for a store in Watertown. PM me if you want to know more about this and other tasty treats coming up.

    $16.99 at Total Wine in Thousand Oaks. Before I saw the box set, I was about to buy a Lukcy ($6.99) and a Double ($7.99). Glad I spotted this before I hit the register! This is an amazing deal if you like the bastards even a little bit.

    Not sure why you need to bash Iowa. What did the rest of us do to you?

    Had it in draft and thought it's ight. Got a lot of raisin and oak and some hints of vanilla. Almost zero bourbon on the taste. I found it disappointing. After having it once I wouldn't buy it by itself. Got one in the box set so I'll try it again and see if anything changes for me. I think this is my least favorite of the bastards.

    Relax. Lets stay on topic. That was a response to someone trying to be rude to me over an simple ABV BA question, prior to that response.

    Were they being rude? Or were they being an Arrogant Bastard? :wink:

    I got mine this afternoon in downtown Columbus for $19.99. Unbeatable! Can't wait to try the barrel-aged.

    Lucked into this at my local bottle shop. $24. I thought it was a good deal considering Lucky alone was $9.50.

    Bought one of these for $20 in the Chicago burbs. Really an incredible value! Going to pick up another for sure.

    total wine HB was sold out a day after they got it so I missed out. Got a single of lukcy and it's delicous.
