Bell's General Store

As a former employee I can assure you all that no one has ever lied to a customer on the phone. We tell you exactly what we knew, which was never much. I worked the BB9K release and two BN releases and the easliest I knew the beers were going to be for sale was when I I clocked in and saw them in the cooler.

 

Former employee? Whatcha doing nowadays?

 

Don't know if Black Note is at the General Store or not, but it is out:

It actually hit some stores here in MN on Friday. Sounded as it was a complete surprise to them.

I haven't checked my bottle dates, but another person said their bottle date was 3/12/14

 

Is it at the store?

 

The BNSS are flummoxed with these recent developments. They've donned their BNSS motorcycle jackets & are circling the general store until Larry or Laura come forth and give them answers to put them at ease. Well either that or until the cooler gets stocked

 

YES

 

Crying "wolf"?

 

no black note this year.

 

Guy in release thread posted a pic that it's in the General Store, but who knows if that's valid or not.

 

its not, i was just there and all they had was expy and double cream, but no ba combo of those. amazing what people will do for attention on these boards

 

Whoops, didn't see that Bell's confirmed it anyways in an FB comment.

 

Funny you say that. Anyone hear remember how to use a phone? I called and the guy who answer most defiently said they have it in the coolers.

 

I'm cool with people keeping it a secret (I guess) but it seems somewhat silly to lie about it.

For those that know, about how long will it stick around there? I assume it goes insanely quick? Last longer than a day?

 

Last year with the release of it in the 4 packs at the end of December, it lasted for at least a week in the general store.

 

gaaaah. i can't tell who is trolling in here.....

 

No telling. Last year the Frangelic Mountain Browners kept it a secret until after it was sold out, so it lasted a while.

 

It lasted a month last year if I remember right.

 

How about Bell's stealing the thunder from the KBS distribution? Looks like it will be a simultaneous release now, or at least a lot of overlap between the end of this week and into next week.

 

There is nothing to see here. Move along...
