    Wow...if that's all they'll do I won't even bother going...easier to just trade for it.

    I'm encouraging this behavior, but only if it's a store I'm hitting today anyway.

    Visiting my parents in Augusta, and the local stores already had cases of both BCBS and babe on the floor....they played dumb when I asked about coffee & vanilla though...

    There are definitely stores selling it early. People are posting their 4 packs on FB.

    Went to the Goodfriend event, Vanilla is hot but still delicious. My first time having coffee but others said it was very different from previous years, regular was still great but less barrel it seemed.

    That's the first positive review of the vanilla I've seen...most have said the rye threw it off

    Id be surprised if most beer nerds could articulate the differences between regular heaven hill barrels and whatever rye whiskey barrels they used for this. People talk out of their ass more often than not, and in this hobby; 93.6% of the time.

    It is vogue to bash on things.

    A quick check to Specs website yields cash/debit card prices of 18.99/4pk and 23.99 for Vanilla...

    I scanned this thread but not sure I saw an answer — I'm in Dallas to see family this weekend and was curious where I could go and what time to have a chance at getting BCS (mostly want the variants). Any suggestions?

    No joke. That FB page for TX craft beer is proof of that. It's downright comical.

    Come on. At best you are either right or wrong on your percentage. Unless you rounded up. If so, wrong.

    Went to specs slaughter for a bottle of tequila last night, asked about bourbon county to a couple of people and even the manager, nobody knew anything. Stood at the beer isle for a bit and didn't see a beer guy.

    This is hopeful.

    Last year it showed up at the Bandera/1604 HEB a couple days late and then at my HEB on Potranco/1604 like a week or two later and just kind of sat there.
