Big score from the big store

Right now Canton Crossing Wine and Spirits have the 2009 Grand Reserva. No Struise freshies around East Side neither.

 

Last year I saw 4 packs of BCBBW at a Vons in a more ghetto area of San Diego for $16.99 each. Never have seen that make it down to these parts. Needless to say I got the shopping card and got all (4) without hesitation.

 

I think you're going to be surprised this year. I have a feeling that CA is going to get a full share of BCBS & distributed variants.

 

I think that too but it's not going to make me hold my breath and avoid standing in line on black Friday to get some 4packs of BCBS. I think Inbev got the message that people all around the country love the stuff. I hate to think how I spend $20+ ever bomber of a BA beer when I can get a 4 pack of 12oz of BCBS for $25 when it comes down here. I'm sure they'll produce more but I'm sure the cost is going up for sure. Still won't detract me unless it gets well over $30. I've never seen variants make it down to SD although the LA crowd apparently got the longer end of the stick last year.

 

@Rober and nice job with your profile might I say. Good amount of reviewing you have done and on a variety of solid beers. It sucks when there are people of advocate status on here without a single review.

 

I would like to review even more, but generally don't unless I'm able to really sit down and figure out a beer. I used to keep track via untappd and then realized I was spending more time ticking then I was enjoying.

I probably weigh in on more topics than I should (like this one). I think InBev is saavy enough to know that SD could be a huge BCBS market for them, but they might be slightly scared away by how intelligent the buyers are down there.

 

I wandered into Honeygo wine and spirits in white marsh and was blown away by the selection. Picked up some stuff from the bruery, imperial biscotti break, and some stuff from Maine beer comp. that I'd never seen in MD. I wanted to buy so much more hahaha
