Backwoods Bastard '14

I imagine that will be the case as well. My wife and I just purged quite a bit of my glassware, mostly to make room in the "beer glass cabinet" and may have cut a bit deep. One or two of those would be nice additions.

 

Confirmed at Horrock's today. They had ~12 cases, perhaps more.

 

It seems like there's a lot hitting distro (maybe more than last year?). Could explain why bottles at the source are drying up faster than previous years.

 

Confirmed they are out of BB at Founders. Ran out by 9pm last night.

 

Wow, guess i was a little off on my month prediction. Must be the NW Indiana/Chicagoland mom and pops muling for more than just Zombie Dust these days.

 

I stopped in on Saturday afternoon to pick some up and during the time I was walking from my car to the front door I saw six people walking back to their cars with two cases each.

 

Wine Seller's got it in Ann Arbor.

 

Any sightings in WI?

 

Nothing in Madison yet, but stores are expecting it this week (possibly Thurs).

 

Hit Madison today. Hyvee east at least.

 

Binnys in Naperville got their shipment yesterday. Just called a few mins ago and confirmed that they still have some available.

 

Bought a pack at Discount in Milwaukee this morning (limit 1 4-pack).

 

My buddy drove over today to pick up a case and texted me to tell me it was all gone. I honestly thought he was messing with me.

I swear they had this in the cooler for a month+ last year...or am I remembering this wrong?

 

It was definitely available btw 2-4 weeks. I think the 3 day sellout is due to higher distro market compared to last year along with muling becoming more and more prevelant.

Hell I saw a manager of a local store post a pic of like 12 cases in the back of his van for his store. Unless it was for personal consumption or there is an agreement btw said shop/founders/imperial, I'm assuming this is a breach of 3-tier.

 

Did those shelf lives also include purchase limits like most are seeing this year?

 

I'm only referring to the availability @ Founders company store, but I believe it was a 2 case limit last year as well.

 

That makes sense. Interesting they pulled the limit and killed your original prediction.

 

The had about 20+ cases in lansing. Sitting out by itself.

Super excited to pick some up. Love this beer.

 

What are you guys buying 4 packs for outside of the company store? I got one for $15 at a local grocery store in SE Detroit and that seemed high.

 

Anyone seen this in Macomb?
