Goose Island Bourbon County variants

Well, i missed out on the motherload by minutes. Walked into a tiny, po-dunk store near my office and was told that they got a case...and then sold that ENTIRE case to some lucky guy a few minutes earlier. They didn't even know what they had.

I'm getting completely skunked and I've spent hours driving around. Time to enjoy the leftover 12s I still have and call off the chase.

 

I got a BR version, 4 pk of BW and a 4 pk of coffee.

 

where? and when?

 

Today. Winona.

 

Good work. Finding it in Minneapolis is a disaster this year.

 

In fact, I found 2 bottles. Securing the second is proving to be a challenge though...

 

If someone wants to throw me a bone I'd love a coffee or 2...or anything...Looks like Ill be working during the 2 seconds that the stores have this for sale...

a long shot, I know...But BA has come through for me before =)

Also, just sayin, this release is fucking ridiculous. this release/allocation=Fail.

 

That's the first I've heard of the BR version being available in MN. Anyone else seen it? Is it coming later statewide or is this just an anomaly?

 

A 1-bottle limit on a 12 oz release is a crock of shit. Just sayin'.

 

I 100% agree

 

Would anyone be willing to trade a single BCBBW for a 2012 regular BCBS. I was really looking forward to trying the barleywine, but I have been shut out so far on any Bourbon County this year. I'll throw anyone an extra something or other as well for being awesome Local in person Minneapolis/St. Paul.

 

Did they have much left?

 

There was quite a bit as of 2 pm. Probably 18 BCBS and about 12-15 Coffee.

 

Pretty sure it is coming later. I think some places are getting their coffee later too (stores that only had regular and barleywine so far).

 

Dang, not to derail the thread, but Surdyks (albiet yesterday) had multiple 4-packs of blackout stout -if we are talking about http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/73/15813

 

I should be able to help.

 

Hit about 6 stores. Came out with one BCBS after he told me they didn't get it, he decided to hit the back and grabbed me one. WhooHooo!!!

 

Henn lake has bcbs and bcbcs. Seems like a limit of 1 each

 

This has been the general response ive been getting:

"No Beer for you! NEXT!"

Shut out of Coffee and Barleywine in Rochester. One store said they were expecting theirs tomorrow. I did get a bottle of Sweet Repute and 2 4pks of regular BCBS.
