    Sorry, what is Proof?
    They got it and immediately threw it on Facebook. If they said they didn't get it, they didn't get it yet.

    CS is going to be turning into an insane importer in the near future, Andre has already taken it to new heights since coming on board and I know Cantillon bottles are at the top of his list!

    I don't think they are importers, are they? Importers cannot sell directly to accounts as they are considered tier one.

    I honestly don't know how it all works. I'm sure you're correct, I just know the buyer for CS is trying to get some.awesome stuff in our neck of the woods.

    I probably shouldn't tell any of you this but did anyone check Falling Rock? Chris is going to get his and he sold Hommage last year at cost so while you may not be able to trade it for Darklord or what ever you could still Facebook it on Facebook to show everyone you had it.

    And for the folks not happy about places saving it for their best customers, I hope you were equally as pissed at Casey for only letting people who had been there sign up for his little club. God forbid places act like Isotoner gloves and take care of the hands that take care of them. I can promise all of you that Mr Bs staff did keep cases of Parabola or anything else sought after and they don't put shit up to sale later unless they announce they will like they did for Bside and the CS Mr Bs beers. Scott does a ton of beer volume and is an all around cool cat, when the distributer finds an extra case or so that didn't sale in the warehouse he gets the first call. If anyone thinks differently you are wrong, go talk to Scott about it if you think I am wrong. You all have been in his store, where the hell do you think he is hiding anything and if he doesn't mark it up later then what would be the point?

    This whole thing gives me further motivation to bring back a big 'ol box later this year. Cantillon has become the new Cabbage Patch Kids. I just hope I get to see a fist fight over one someday. That might make all of this nonsense worthwhile.

    About 2 months ago I was downtown near City Grill at lunch and two homeless guys got into a fight. One guy, after getting knocked down jumped back up and ripped his coat and shirt off. Seeing that the second guy walked out into traffic on Colfax. It was quite entertaining. Pretty sure they weren't fighting over Cantillon but I'd like to think it was over beer.

    But he is now able to do it with the pull of Crooked Stave from the inside!

    If it was 2 months ago, it was probably Parabola. Or the monthly Russian River release.

    This is the only thing I took from your post haha. What the hell is it about Colfax that makes everyone cross in the middle of the street in front of traffic?

    @tylerstravis, Proof is a small locally owned wine/beer/liquor shop on north larimer street. Not a huge selection of beer or liquor, but what they do have is always great and well thought out. And the wine selection selection and prices are great. Definitely recommend stopping in next time you are around the area.

    I got a call from Mr. B's yesterday and got a Fou Foune. Stoked and super appreciative. I also spent like 150 more dollars in addition, though.

    Andre is working for Crooked Stave now. I am enthuastic and not confused about that.

    I am confused by the tiered system of distribution.

    'Pull from the inside' is what threw me. Crooked Stave has Shelton which has cantillon. No pull needed.

    How much money do you have to spend there to receive a special call?

    The easiest and fairest way to deal with loons is to just not have them in your store. There is just no way to make everyone happy with 6 bottles, people. God bless you bottle shop employees, you've got WAY more patience than I do.
