Founder's Breakfast Stout

Sorry..I guess I should have first voiced my surprise and then asked, "how widespread is this phenomenon"?

 

No, talked to my guy at Binny's last night and it won't hit their warehouse until the 9th or so and then out to the individual stores on their regularly scheduled trucks that week.

 

anyone know when its hitting jersey?

 

I guess I'm wondering why you would waste your time acting surprised when you clicked on thread and decided to post 4 pages in you doosh!

 

Ward, I think you were a little rough on the beaver.

 

This BLOWS!!!!!!! Like someone kicked me in the nuts. N.H has come so far the last two and half years. Green Flash, Lagunitas, Firestone, Oskar Blues, North Coast, and Maine Brewing have all arrived in the state the last few years. I was looking forward to not paying for deposit, sales tax, and not driving to Mass or Maine for this. Ruined my Friday

 

^that is lame.. sorry to hear about that.. time to get some people to petition to the law makers to change that one

 

I'm hoping this is because in MI they mostly respect Founders release dates. Not so much in other states.

 

Anyone know when it's hitting NYC?

 

not so fast...

Haha, Oh yes I saw that, that's why I said "mostly" in my post. And it looks like they took them off the shelves because it was a mistake. It's great that Meijer gets seasonal limited releases though. I've bought KBS there many times.

 

Well the Mejeirs I stop at had a huge space for it and its even on sale....until the 1st.....Ive stopped 3 time and the space was empty every time. So their either teasing everyone, putting it on sale even, or someones coming in and buying it all up whenever they put it out.

 

Are they not the "live free or die" state? its some state in the NE...

 

Had it on tap tonight at Founders. Just as good as always. And their firkin for today was a porter with what they called 'sexy' chocolate. It had a more bitter finish to it, compared to the standard porter. Likely made with bitter chocolate. I never thought to ask.

Cheers

 

If people are hoarding FBS, I'm going to quit this whole beer thing all together.

 

Mmmmmm "Flaked Oaks".....

 

I hear that. I honestly think they just put the tag there and made a space for it not knowing when they were going to get it. Though I haven't been able to find anyone around to ask about it either..

 

Mmmmm, today's the day people! Today's the day this bad boy is supposed to hit the shelves. I can't wait to get my hands on some of this fresh, delicious Stout!

 

Welp....come see my fridge and basement....and bring all your beer since you are now out of the game!

 

FBS at Meijer? I have yet to see this. Is this something new this year? Anybody see this in the Detroit area?
