    Lots of BevMos in the Bay Area already have it, I've seen the stacks, but they won't sell it until next Fri. Seems even the smaller BevMos are getting a good amount too. Pretty sure there is a ton available this year.

    Seems like it. I asked a Total Wine manager if they would have it and was told limit 1 per customer next Friday. Granted these are relatively big shops, I would think then that the amount allotted in CA would be small but then after visiting a few grocery stores around town, I have seen it out already. It seems like there is a ton available this year. Still miss the 4-packs, though :slight_frown:

    it seems like a lot of places are getting around 4 or more cases of regular, a few coffee and barleywine and 1 or 2 regal. I was told either 12 or 24 cases of rare in sacramento. Dont remember which one but i think it was 12.

    Hot Dog Shoppe in Corona already sold out of Rare (apparently you could reserve your bottle before the release), but it was $100 per bottle.

    They just posted on Facebook that they have 1 bottle left that they will raffle off. You have to go in and buy a raffle ticket for $10 before Friday. Yikes.

    I really hope 100% of the raffle money goes to charity.

    IANAL, but I'm pretty sure that this violates CA law as it applies to raffles. Who knows, maybe they were really forward thinking and registered it with the state and are giving the money to charity. Guessing not though.

    $100 a bottle? Never eating there again. Terrible.

    Hmm I must have missed it I went last night and didn't see it posted on the board. Actually had nothing on the board so went to Beachwood. Hop Nino is tasting amazing

    I think so too. If you have to buy a raffle ticket, doesnt that make it gambling? Thats why they always add. "No purchase necessary to participate"

    Unless you have a spreadsheet then there is no way you could remember all the places you are boycotting.
