    Picked up Founders Sweet Repute today and was talking to the beer guy at the liquor store. He tried selling me a 2017 bomber for $60 . When I politely said no thank you, he dropped another bomb on me... CBS is coming back next year. He got it from his Founder rep so take it for what it's worth but anyone else hear anything similar?

    I still have six or seven bottles. I would be more excited if the rep said Black Biscuit.

    That's pretty funny. I'm trying to imagine how that conversation went.

    Worker: "Hey man, want a...*shadily looks both ways* 2017 bomber of CBS for...$60!?!?"

    You: "Uh, yeah, no thanks. Some places are still selling 4 packs of the 2019 for like $25."

    Worker: "Oh, well...yeah...by the way, did you know that CBS is returning next year?!"

    You: "Uh ok, so why did you just try to sell me a 5 year old bomber of it for $60?"

    Worker: "Gotta clear out inventory before we get the fresh shipment next year!"

    Kind of reminds me that movie “Death Proof” when they are at the gas station and the clerk was saying he had special magazines in the back. Pretty funny for that to happen in a real life scenario.

    Lmfao you're not wrong. I'm seeing bombers for $25 around my area. No way in hell I'm paying $60+.
