DC Metro Bourbon County Updates

I remember when BCBS was $15 a four pack. No it's $15 a bottle.

 

Has anyone heard about DC stores getting any of the Reserve version?

 

Oh, I member. But the single bottle is 4oz bigger now, so it’s cool.

 

Whole Foods P st opened with almost no line.
Limits:
4 regular @$11.99
2 BW @12.99
1 Coffee @$13.99
1 Northwoods@$22.99
Looks like they only got one case Northwoods and 2 Coffee.
Regular and BW large quantity.

 

Harry’s Reserve 909 New Jersey SE. No line.
Regular 3 limit
Barley 2 limit
coffee, norhtwoods 1 limit.

Glasses and shirts to first few customers.

 

TW Alexandria got regular, BW, coffee, reserve, and Northwood. One per on each. Five people in line as of 7:35.

 

Whole Foods Vienna had nothing. Waste of time. In front of Norms right now. No one else here. I buy a lot of (too much ☺) beer at Norm's. Norm said the distributor promised not to repeat last year's debacle. We shall see . . .

 

TW Ballston only has regular...

 

Any place near Bowie or Laurel that still have Barleywine?

 

Line has finally formed at Norm's. Half an hour to go.

 

Thanks to the two brothers who pulled up to TW Springfield and stood in line smoking cigars (right behind the guy with a baby.) You made waiting in a line a pukeworthy experience.

They had all five at TW Springfield, plus you can use the 10% off coupon that was in the email.

 

Any word if TW Alexandria sold out of the reserve?

 

K-1 in Arlington has regular and BW.

 

I would be surprised if they didn't. Big line at opening.

 

I went to Rodman’s on Wisconsin. Maybe 25 people in line by open (9am), pp limits were 1 Northwood, 2 Coffee, 3 BW, and no limit on Regular.

Super easy, and the Rodman’s beer guy brought Intelligentsia coffee, cookies, and GI swag out to the line around 8:30. Night and day from back home in SE Mich, where you’ll stand in line for a single bottle of Reg, and even the biggest stores seem to get a single case of coffee/“other” if they’re lucky.

 

I’m not sure who’s more in the wrong here...the guys smoking outside or the guy waiting in line with a baby in this cold weather for a freakin beer.

 

Anybody know where Reserve was (or will be) in DC? Haven't heard anything and I find it odd that DC would get shut out.

 

Reserve was supposed to only go to Illinois and Kentucky. It was something of a surprise that Virginia got it. No clue if DC will see any.

 

I thought exactly the same. Lol. You're not allowed to smoke cigars outside of a store that sells cigars, because some guy stuck watching his child is making them wait in line in the cold to get a beer. America in 2017.

 

HT on M St SE has a bunch of BCBS @ $12.99 and a little BCBBW @$17.99

Saws limit 4 each, not sure how they'll enforce that. Lame pricing wasn't it $9.99 last year?
