    Might be too soon to ask this?? But the past few years I haven't been able to even find barleywine in SC. I'm in Myrtle beach area willing to drive down to Charleston if anyone can recommend a place that will have barleywine and coffee.... hopefully northwoods too...

    A buddy of mine went to the Total Wine in West Ashley last year and they had coffee (only 12 though) and barleywine. Think they got there maybe 30-45 minutes before open.

    Not SC but I was told in Florida we may only be getting BCBS and barley wine again this year. Not looking good.

    Byrd from piggly wiggly told me we were only getting regular bcbs. I'm more interested in him getting CBS. He said he's inquired about it, so we'll see.

    I'm going to be in Greenville for Thanksgiving, I'm assuming TW and Greens are my best bets?

    Crafted and Greenville Beer Exchange are good bets too.

    Only place I was able to find BCBS last year in Greenville was Total Wine and Greens. Total Wine had it probably through noon and Greens had a line at open. I would suggest hitting up Green's first and then heading over to Total Wine.

    From what I can see from my side (in wholesale, there will be more available in previous years. I don't sell bourbon county but my top stores are getting more bottles and variants than in years past.

    Have to visit family in Hilton Head and won’t be in Columbia to hit Total Wine. Anyone have any experience in finding it at a store in Hilton Head or Bluffton? I’m thinking my best bet is the Kroger on the island, but not expecting any variants.

    anyone have any advice on where to go for someone trying to drive over to SC from Savannah on black friday? Looks like it might be a desert down there and no BCBS in GA this year..

    I live on HHI and work in Savannah. HHI is a ghost town for beer, little to no activity. If your going to drive from Sav you might as well just keep going north to Charleston where you can get goodies for sure.

    I frequently drive to Charleston for that very reason.

    Think Habersham will be getting Coffee.

    I know we aren't getting any variants here in Asheville and i called around Greenville today and no one down there is getting variants either. I have heard TW in Charlotte are going to have 1 case of Northwoods at least.

    GVL appears to only be getting regular based on everyone I talked to as well. I also saw on Instagram that total wine Charlotte will have Reserve too! Thought it was only IL and KY but seems to be select cities too

    Just wanted to give a shout out to TW Greenville for the release yesterday. Fast, orderly and professional. In and out. They had coffee, northwoods, and the reserve (wtf?, yes!) in addition to the regular. Given how many many posts I've seen saying that their area got no variants, I was pretty thankful to score everything but prop and barleywine. Always a pleasure to be in Greenville for the holiday. I'll be baaaack.

    We got everything In Charleston, except Prop (obviously). I barely missed out on Reserve, but got plenty of everything else. This morning, regular, BW, and Coffee could still be found at Total Wine and Bottles.
