[houston] backyard rye and bcbcs

Dammit. Oh well, I have been out of beer space for a month and keep stockpiling.

 

thanks for the heads up earlier, @mattchow

 

Just in case anybody is curious. This is always the way things go in Houston. If a beer hits Specs Smith St., within 24 hours (usually less) it will absolutely be at Central Market and Whole Foods Kirby. The only exception would be those stupid Buffalo Bayou one offs like the one with Joeys big dumb face on it.


You're welcome.

 

Hahaha.. Nice.

 

Beats hanging out with hobos.

 

Yeah. I was just laughing about the Joey comment.

 

I figured. I guess I'll point out I actually like Joey. He was my favorite bartender at Flying Saucer Sugar Land. I remember going in there some nights, drinking my three beers and just shooting the shit with him for a few hours. Good dude.

 

I hear you.

 

They are on their way to Matt Chows house now via his trunk.

 

what's the pricing on this stuff? I know when bcbs came out it was around 20$ a 4pk. I paid 10$ ( bar price of course) for one bottle of the coffee stuff but would like to try this berry one. is everyone that gets it breaking down the 4pks and selling singles?

 

they'd be hard pressed to break down 22s further.

 

i have extra BCBS.... would like to trade for some of the other flavors

 

ok now i see, rye is bomber. clever helpful answer yuk yuk yuk, I've only seen the coffee so far in 12oz and read the first post as meaning Central market was breaking down 4 packs of the coffee one, if there are bombers out there I did not know that, but thanks for the valuable input mr. boogercrack

"i have extra BCBS.... would like to trade for some of the other flavors"

hey me too, and every Thomas, Richard and Harorld as well I'm sure. I'm guessing the dozen or so dudes who've snatched the city's supply of the variations are already sitting on a garage full of "extra BCBS"

 

I think you got it all. You should write a book on obtaining beer or teach a beeradvocate 201 course.

 

For a small payment of $100 you can join my seminar in attaining rare and elusive beers in Houston. You will also have a chance to hear secret tips and personally meet the famous Matt Chow, Houston's own Hoarders Alliance President. Please signup at the downtown YMCA spot will fill up fast!

 

So is it possible to out-MattChow the man himself, perhaps by bribing the delivery drivers or following the truck around ?

 

Anyone know if this ever made it back to HEB Bunker Hill?

 

Following the truck around was absolutely done on KBS day last year. @Lutter and Alex remember...
