    $23.99 - for 4 x 12 oz bottles or 48 oz.

    $20.99 - for a 750ml or ~25 oz of beer.

    One of those is a rip-off ...

    I’ll answer my own question. Per the Founders website their suggested retail is $24/4 pack or $20/750ml. I paid $24.99 for a four pack. If you’re paying less than $24 consider yourself lucky.

    My reaction as well here in PDX. Even at the local Costco price of $16.50, that price just seems odd when I compare it to the 4 pack price. I know an upcharge for bombers is fairly typical, but the disparity between the price of 4 packs and bombers for KBS is a little surprising.

    Unless I'm planning to lay some down for a few years (and maybe not even then), it's pretty hard for me to justify purchasing any bombers.

    It was $24/4pack at Meijer, not the best not the worst.

    Drank one a moment ago. Tastes great. Gotta do a side by side with a 17 & 16. Eating a weed chocolate beforehand might have affected my palette. Happy Friday.

    So, how's it going? I find this is the best way to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.

    You win this thread.

    I’m gonna check out a few places when I get back in town this afternoon. Hopefully I can grab some at Jewel for the lower price.

    Gone are the days you could rely on Binny’s for cheapest prices in Chicago...

    There were still 6+ cases left at the Southport Jewel yesterday around 5 pm.

    Also, did a vertical of 16-18 last night after having Snoochie Boochies and Mikerphone Check. Two things confirmed after that: fresh is best and I probably shouldn’t do that again.

    Another update...Jewel on Ashland & Wellington still had 2+ cases as of 2 pm or so yesterday. I'm sure there probably is still some left there today.

    Thanks for the updates. Got a 4 pack the otherday at the Southport Jewels. Glad to see theres so much. Last year was pretty easy to snag and this year is a sinch. CBS also was pretty easy to get in Az and IL. Kinda makes me wish BCS variants were like this...

    From additional deliveries, Bourbon County regular was on the shelves/on floor in Chicago and the 'burbs through February, which is how it should be!
