    We’re swapping spots for the weekend. RSVP will have rg + variants, not sure exactly which. Usually get a healthy dose though.

    I live in Watertown but was visiting family in CT this Thanksgiving. Stopped at CT Beverage in Newington at 10:30 this morning and they still had regular BCBS and all three variants plus three of the “special” variants including:

    Double Barrel Toasted Barrel
    Reserve Blanton’s Stout
    Reserve 150 Stout

    I had no clue these were seeing distro. Did any places in MA land them?

    Well today started off fantastic, my wife had a hacked bank account so our trip started late. But while still in RI, we went over to Wines & More where I got the second to last bottle of 150. That appears to be the same additional variant as Maine got, so I just sat down at YRL to relax and have some drafts. Not worried about store-hunting up here. Cheers!

    Fine! I bitched about the Cola variant then had it up against 2021, 2020, cherry wood and cola… and yes, I enjoyed it!

    So shame on this prick ha

    jesus! That sucks when that happens! Would’ve bought you a pour at river landing if still there. We were at tbe corner of the bar to the left from 11-2 or so. Met some awesome folks and had some bottle pours of the Bissell barrel aged stouts shared with us. Gave our two seats eventually to the sweetest couple who were thrilled. Those ladies worked their asses off behind the bar. I hope everyone said a kind word and tipped them well.
    Great time as always

    Thanks for the offer. We walked into a freaking paaarty sitting at a small table behind the bar. There was a party somewhere in the low teens taking up half of that side and they had appatently been there awhile! We had to ask how much the bill was as they left and it got quieter; the waitress said $1500. Yowsa. Gotta admire that, so long as they were local/carpooling with DD's.

    Nowhere I saw in the north shore had them, or at least advertised they had them

    Same here lol. Got my 4oz sample of the Cola and it was perfectly fine. I was expecting a mess of an aftertaste but it was clean AF, the adjuncts come through nicely in the middle and don't linger.

    Oakdale in Tewksbury had Cherry Wood, Cola, 14 and OG all available as of noon today.

    They also had a lot of back years' OG out too, all priced at $12.95, if you're looking to fill out for a vertical.

    Also copped a '18 Vanilla that was just sitting on the shelf! No complaints here.
