    My brother grabbed some in DC today, so it can't be long until it's in the wild...

    I assume that's a warehouse with cases upon cases of CBS.

    That's the distributor, yes.

    If you message the Craft social media pages, they are usually pretty good about saying where stuff went after it has been shipped to stores. It’s tough to say for the social media girl to say where now because founders handles the allocations of how much and what stores. Most of the time the sales reps or brand managers don’t even know what stores are getting. The store I manage was told we were getting one case, but can’t confirm when I’ll get it since it will probably be hand delivered

    That post seems disingenuous at best, #fakenews at worst.

    I personally do not believe only 20 cases will be in MA.

    Anywhere around the Worcester to Boston route to find this on tap?

    I had it on tap at Lulu’s last night. I was impressed, it was dominated by Swiss chocolate with a little maple sweetness. It was on the thinner side and wasn’t very maple foward. I wouldn’t go to crazy for it, but I will be seeking out a bottle or 2.

    RE the Austin Liquors thing, how much Founders do they carry? If they only sell 15 packs they won’t receive any special releases they gotta spread the love around to the 6 packs.

    It's most certainly false information. I know someone that saw five cases this morning at ONE store in western MA. It's gonna suck for everyone else spreading the remaining fifteen cases throughout the state. Don't shop there.

    Burlington Wine and Spirits has three cases according to their Facebook.

    Sounds like something they may have been told by their distro rep...
