    Sound like Donovan songs. I'm in just to ask for these at a store.

    I'd rather have Merkin than Helldorado or Stickee Monkee any day.

    Just opened 2016 Velvert Merkin last night, and I would have to disagree with you, but agree with @raynmoon and @shnsajax. It was not worth the $16.99 price, more like $9.99.

    Has anyone in the Chicago area asked one of their stores about when they expect this to hit here? I'm assuming we're still 2-3 weeks out, as our FW releases seem to lag by nearly a month from when they're released at the brewery. I haven't had a chance to inquire lately, and completely forgot to ask when I was at a local store yesterday.

    It's good, finishes a bit boozy but I think that bodes well for some aging

    Can you get bottles of Firestone Anniversary XX at the Buellton location? Good friend is in the area for the weekend and offered to stop by if so. I wish the website had updated lists of carryout bottles.

    Couldn't agree more!! I wish Merkin got more love. It is just right and the name is priceless. If fact, I had it on tap the other night and it was so good, I had a second 10oz. pour and could drive myself home. Don't get me wrong, I love Parabola, but I don't look forward to finishing a 22oz. of Parabola by myself.

    I have family from CA coming to visit this weekend and was hoping they might be able to bring me one of these if they're out. Are these available in the San Diego area yet? Thanks!

    Colorado isn't getting it for awhile. Month delay because of distributor issues, if anyone cares.

    PIcked up 3 at BevMo Blossom Hill - San Jose. I had a $10 off $50 coupon, so took advantage of it.
