I'm still sitting on a bottle of Black Tuesday from 2016 because every time I bring it somewhere no one wants to tempt fate. Thinking maybe on NYE I just open it, pour myself 4oz and dump the rest.
Keeping an eye out for the creepy dude in the yellow suit with no shirt on underneath at Rev tomorrow night...
Yeah, it is. I was just trying to find a way to justify buying a bottle, since I've never actually tasted it.
It’s a great beer. I agree with those above who said age it. Save it for a special occasion down the line. I rarely say that anymore, but the beer and price tag warrant that here, I think
Looks like different stores got different stuff -- looks like any combo of; BA TrillBOMB! (Prairie collab) BA Almond Cake BA Feed Your Soul Mass Ave (IPA) Launch Beer (Pale Ale) Sleeper Street (IPA) Fort Point (Pale Ale) DDH Trailside (IPA) DDH Melcher Street (IPA) (beer cellar has all the IPAs/Pale Ales)
Yeah 3 of those hazies are “new” to Chicago. Fort Point is so damn good though. I’ll order that every time
Unclear if it’s a flash drop or potentially here to stay but Beer Temple announced Fat Heads is coming to Chicago. Would love to buy Hop Juju someday!
I was told this is a one off drop for now, but they hope to schedule a follow-up drop in 2024, and are trying to secure regular/semi-regular drops thereafter. Also, they still have one full BCBS allotment set each available for 2022 and 2021, and additional vintage bottles.
Seems like this was facilitated through Beer Temple so most likely just them, maybe a couple other shops get a little. But I would not expect it at Binnys.
