    Trying to find this for my wife, and we are headed up to the Joe tomorrow for a game. Anywhere on the way, close to 75 that might have this? Already called a West Market Liquor in Woodhaven, no dice. Any others?
    Thanks

    My store got a case in this Wednesday and I believe some others got theirs in this week too. We only have like 2-4 bottles left, though.

    Scored a 4 pack for $16.99. Could of purchased more but wanted to try it first.

    First impression is the bourbon is very prominent in both the nose and taste. More bourbon flavor then anything, almost completely overpower the cherry flavor. Surprised because most people were saying the bourbon wasn't very prominent.

    Overall I like it. Not blown away but I like it. On the fence about buying another 4. Will probably wait and have another tomorrow to see how my pallet responds the second time. Will also be curious to see how it ages.

    Picked up a single at The Beer Temple in Chicago. Not sure I would have sprung for a 4 pack without trying this

    I opened a bottle last night, I liked it at first, but as it warmed I didn't like it as much. My fiance loves fruit beers and she was indifferent. I am glad I tried it but I will be giving away the rest of the 4 pack, and maybe trying it another time. Not bad, not too sweet, but nothing exciting for me.
