    close enough. I remember September 1 as being the earliest every year, and Backwoods is November 1 IIRC.

    It's probably sitting in your distributors warehouse waiting for either the Cerise to sell out or for the Founders approved sell date to come around.

    If you want any of the aged variety, there is plenty at Total Wine in Dunwoody. If you are looking for fresh, I can't help you out. It really blows my mind that a beer this good can sit around for an entire year.

    So I can pick up fresh FBS AND aged FBS when I'm in ATL in October? This pleases me, yes it does indeed.

    Haha, all part of the fun. Well, not really. Had to come to ATL to go to the French consulate to apply for my work visa; finally! Still waiting for my phone call saying that everything is ready, come get your passport...should be any day. Then, back to Paris for good (well at least longer than 4 months)!

    Have a couple in the fridge, waiting to do a side by side...much prefer it fresh (from what I remember).

    Thanks!
    You guys don't drink as much of it as the distributor thinks you will...I guess.

    That's where I do a lot of my shopping. I can always find the hard to get bottles there.

    Total Wine at North Point still has last year's batch laying around, I actually think they put it on sale to get rid of it haha, pretty interesting

    It should be hitting stores this week. In GA it's distributed by Savannah Distributors. I spoke to a rep a few days ago and it'll be hitting the stores in the Atlanta market very soon, as in Thursday/Friday.
