    Has anyone had this yet? Does anyone know if any bottles are left?

    I can't find the email notice now, but didn't they just release it this past weekend? I know it's on tap at the brewpub, and in the past, you could usually find bottles of Sticky Hands for at least a few weeks after the initial release date.

    In other words, sorry, I don't have a firm answer for you, but if I had to guess, I would expect that bottles are still available at the brewpub and probably elsewhere as well.

    I was going to say that I can probably grab some at Bier Stein or 16 tons, but doesn't sound as if you're going to need my help with this.

    We usually see a few kegs down this way, and after reading over the description on the newsletter, I'm looking forward to giving it a try as well.

    I think Bailey's usually gets some bottles. I've gotten several of the past releases from them.

    Does Bend get these bottles? I'll be down there in a few weeks.

    I can't answer your question, but....

    If the answer turns out to be no, but you're going to be in Bend over memorial day, I could bring up a couple of bottles for you.

    I will be there over Memorial Day weekend. Anything from WA you'd be interested in? I live really close to Fremont Brewing, so can snag whatever is out now.Thanks!

    I'm enjoying this iteration of sticky hands very much. It sold out at the brewery in ~2 hours. As usual get to the places around town early, this beer tends to fly off the shelves (for good reason.)

    I am hoping to get my hands on a bottle or two of this fantastic sounding beer. Anybody interested in trading a bottle ot two of it for some great East Coast IPAs. Send me a message if interested and I will be sure to take care of you in the trade. Thx!

    I didn't think so, but I have seen random Block 15 bottles at Broken Top in the past, so I wasn't sure.

    Yeah, they mule stuff back from breweries sometimes (RR Supplication and Consecration in house now thanks to one of those trips), but it doesn't look like Sticky Hands happened this time.

    All kinds of things, but I don't know what availability is like at the brewery. Just off the top of my head, things I've had from them that I'd love to have a bottle of include the Bourbon Barrel aged Abominable, bourbon barrel aged Dark Star, Brother and Sister DIPA's. I'd also love to try the Rusty Nail at some point, but I'm assuming obtaining a bottle is impossible at this point. I'm guessing that nothing on that list is likely to be available, but I'm always game to try something new if you see something interesting at the brewery.

    Adding to the above I also have many high quality stouts that I would be willing to include in a trade for a bottle or two of this IPA. Thx!

    The Brother is still available in cans and bottles. There is also Midnight Rider (Imperial coffee/coconut porter) and a bottled variant of regular Dark Star with oak, hazelnut and smoked peppercorns.

    I liked the brother a lot at the cask festival in Seattle, so that would be great. Hopefully after all this, I can find some SH for you. I'll run by 16 tons and Bier Stein today to see if it's in town yet.

    One bottle would be fine if you happen to run into it. No worries if not. I'll get you a Brother bomber for sure.
