    What's the latest word on Texas getting this?

    Heard from a credible source that our odds are slim at best. The story I heard was they couldn't secure enough barrels to make the original amount that they had planned so ended up with a very small batch...essentially making the odds of it getting out of Colorado very small. Hope what I'm hearing is wrong...would love to do a side by side with my bottle from last year....

    Bottles were pretty scarce even in Denver. Avery released one bottle a person(per day I think) during the week of GABF, but Im hearin they are pretty slim pickins'

    I believe some of it is coming in keg to Texas for limited Avery events.

    It was $16 a bottle at Avery during GABF, but passed expecting it would make it here like last year.

    Good thing my partner in CO sent me one. It is very nice guys. I also did read we would get it, got it last year so keep your hopes up and hit up your beer guys.

    I knew I should've bought more of this last year. It was pretty plentiful at Central Market. Still holding onto my last bottle for a special occasion.

    Well damn, i don't remember it being $17 last year. I thought it was like $10.

    I saw plenty of last year's on the shelves in San Diego when I was there this summer, but decided to hold out for the new batch. Regretting THAT decision.......

    And just when I was out, they pulled me back in. 5 cases total dropped in Austin, and I happened to be in the right place at the right time today.

    Apparently I was misinformed earlier. It should make it to dfw next week, or week after I'm told now.
