Best online store for limited release beers?

Unfortunately, I've not found a one-stop shop like that, simply due to distribution areas. Craftshack is great for west coast stuff, france44 for Minnesota area stuff, Charleston Beer Exchange for SE stuff, and then assorted Belgian webstores for the Loons and such, etc.

They're pretty much all like going to the limited release drop at any local store, you've gotta be fast and in the right place at the right time (or know when to go) to get the rare stuff.

While it takes a little more time and effort, hooking up with the right people here (or elsewhere) for trades can be like going to the beer-candyshop like it sounds like you're dreaming of, and can be much more fulfilling, as you're getting them stuff they want to try too.

 

There actually is a place for this and it flies under the radar, problem is that the prices are too high. They always have pliny and cantillon offerings as well as other "whales." Shoot me a message if you want.
