    I'm so looking forward to this. I'm so glad we don't have to line up at the brewery 24 hours in advance or drive around town all day to procure a couple 12 oz bottles :grinning:

    Let's hope you are right. Many beers that weren't in this class of difficulty now are, and Parabola is a better beer than almost all of them.

    Yeah. I would be surprised if there was a bottle limit at every store that had it.

    Maybe because I live 5 minutes from the brewery, but I have never had to worry about finding a FW beer. They are in almost every store.

    Whew, actually glad it isn't hitting shelves for a couple weeks - between my Cascade shipments and the Beatification release, I've dropped quite a bit of coin on new beer lately, can use a (brief) hiatus...

    I was a month late on the '10 release in Seattle and never found a single bottle. I was prepared for the '11 release, and it turned out to be available off and on thru at least mid-August. I hope that's a trend.

    Unfortunately, it is pretty scarce here in NoVA when it is released. Expect allocations at most stores.
