    Has anyone seen any info on the allotment number for the store release tomorrow? I have heard some unconfirmed reports of anywhere from 2-6 bottles, but also no limits at stores around the GR area.

    Binny's will have it on sale for $15.99 once the embargo is lifted.

    GR release is tomorrow to coincide with Founders release & Beer Week. A few stores have reportedly gotten theirs today, although I'm not sure how. It'll be everywhere in GR tomorrow, main distribution remains the 2nd.

    I didn't say I agreed with it, but I'm not just pulling this out of my ass - it's literally first line in Blushing Monk's description on this very site. I swore I saw Founder's themselves say it at one point (not as a literal description, more of a "well it's kinda like..."), but I can't find a reference to it on their website.

    You got it for $14.99 in Battle Creek? Its listed as $17 at Founders and $17.50 locally in GR. Meh.

    My supplier hinted to me that it would be available in a fairly large supply this time around. We shall see...

    i love Rasp Tart and all the New Glarus fruits but not very comparable to Blushing Monk. Blushing Monk is more than twice the abv and is more like raspberry jam rather than candy that you get from the NG offerings.

    It's a running joke, as every week he still asks if I want more Dissenter (they still have 500+ cases sitting in their warehouse) and I have plenty already. While I know the Dissenter did not sell as well as other BS beers, I also am inclined to believe they have ramped up production plans for current and future BS offerings.

    True. I got a SR release ticket pretty easily.
