    Arrowine has had Resolute a couple of times, most recently when they had a huge three table tasting. I agree with post above, it is a fantastic beer.

    TW Springfield doesn't know wtf is going on. I called Friday last week, this Monday (they don't receive deliveries on Mondays), and then again yesterday --> they said it would arrive Thursday every time I called. Great.

    Called again today, sold out! fml

    Should I not call as much? I mean how else am I supposed to know. And the folks on here aren't exactly helping out lol they tell you AFTER it's all sold. (Sorry for the rant.)

    Their standard line up probably Norm's, Arrowine etc. Arrowine had a tasting a couple of weeks ago. Their regular stuff, Pale Ale and IPA are just OK, but anytime you can find their barrel stuff it's worth it.

    I have called there and gone in person several times about several different beers and they always have no clue when it's coming in... and they actually tell me to call back though so I don't think they're doing it because they're trying to shoo me. Every other TW is at least able to give me some details of when they expect it and how many cases they expect.

    The hype is out of control. I had Perennial Sump (non BA) last weekend and thought it was better than KBS. The prices for KBS is a result of hype at its finest. Supply remains the same, demand skyrockets. At least the system is functioning correctly.

    God I hate that place. I go there all the time because my brother lives right up the street, but their pricing is fucking ridiculous.

    I actually called them a bunch of times and every time but one they told me Wed. One guy did tell me Thurs, he must have been the guy you spoke to.

    Call Schneiders. Might have a couple left. They were very secretive about it. Brown bags leaving, no joke. $7 and change for 1.

    Those guys camping out at Norms can stick it! 4 pack at WF Tysons this morning for $21. Had 5 packs left about 20 minutes ago but some folks had called in while I was there.

    nah dont want a case just looking to grab 2 four packs but its unlikely Norm will be selling it by the 4 pack...probably more likely to sell it by the bottle

    The one time I don't check this forum when I get into work this happens a few miles away. Da well... Would of just traded it for some black note. Norm's is a few miles away but I'm scurred of @SK007 and the 'man in the black suv' and whatever other hooligans are going to show up.
