19th anny was everywhere. This shouldn't be hard to get. Every Specs had it. If its a pain then it means all the wannabe beer geeks need to move on to cider or sake or whatever the new hot thing as beer will obviously be played out.
You're right. Anniversary is easier to get. It's the Uncle Jacobs and sours that are a bitch to find.
Late June/July release. Let's see how much we get and how much hits the shelves. Never had Uncle Jacobs. I'm Hoping to score a bottle this time around.
Avery distributes to 22 states They said what, 600 cases for UJ? So adjusting for population/size, Texas will probably see around 40-50 cases. (Roughly 10 cases per city, if that) That's peanuts for a BA Stout (By that I mean it will fly off the shelves in less than a day)
