    Any sightings or info on whether or not this will hit distro in our state?

    I have a feeling it will hit the Philly market, and us beer gurus in other parts of the state (NEPA) will be fighting for the scraps from Philly's table.

    Even if it makes it to Philly it will be very limited I believe.

    Nothing in Pittsburgh yet. Doubt we will see it at all. This city doesn't get much of these special releases if at all.

    Not due to be released until late October/early November according to sierranevadabill in the beer release forum. 6000 cases estimated to be released nationwide.

    NEPA probably won't get it. Shangys doesn't seem to like sending things up this way.

    Also said that there is more than what they had for the BA Bigfoot last year. So if you were able to land bottles of that then you should be able to get some BA Narwhal

    Al's of Hampden had it on draft as of last week, I think. Haven't seen any bottles anywhere yet.

    I'd be very interested if Al's actually had the Barrel Aged version of this, as SN Bill suggests only a few 5-gallon kegs are in the wild.

    See:
    and
    This confusion has been quite the recurring thing on BeerAdvocate: http://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/sierra-nevada-barrel-aged-narwhal.210565/

    ^Yeah, my bad. Al's had regular Narwhal now that I really think about it. :slight_frown:

    No worries. Easy mistake.

    If you're looking for regular Narwhal bottles, they are all over the place
