    Not sure if this is news or not but I sure was surprised when I walked into a Total Wine after work today. Saw 5 different brews from Boulevard just sitting on a barrel. Picked up a bottle of each.

    Being close to KC< I've been a Blvd homer for years. There are some that I don't care for, but I'm always excited for their seasonals. Their Bob's '47 Oktoberfest is really good IMO. Either way, good to see them getting out West.

    It will be nice to see Tank 7 on a local shelf. Good news indeed.

    Any idea if it's permanent this time? They had started distributing out here a few years ago ('08? '09?), and then seemed to pull out...was that just a trial, or did they not have enough supply?

    How funny. I was at the Northridge TW and saw the bottles as well. I was quite surprised.

    I enjoy all these beers and am very happy about this news. Especially excited for the Smokestack Series special releases potentially down the road, and the Love Child series as well.

    I saw this last week too but I thought I just hadn't noticed them before. Ironic, too, considering I was about to make a trade for some of their brews.

    Yeah tripped me out to see Bobby's Liquors get them in stock. Two weeks ago I ordered Double Wide, Tank 7, Sixth Glass, and Long Strange from Letspour. :slight_frown: Fuck it hopefully we see Saison-Brett, Love Child, Rye-on-Rye, and Imperial-Stout one of these days.

    I'm pretty sure it was a trial run in early 2009. Holiday Wine Cellar got some in at that time but they mentioned it was a trail run by Boulevard themselves. Not sure how that worked with distribution channels etc but it was available in a small quantity. Everything I've been told about this current distribution is that it is here to stay with at least the Smoke Stack series stuff.
