    They had it on tap at the brewery over the summer. Phenomenal.

    I got a B1 & B2 BA Legion for you, if I can find an extra Raspberry Temptress I'll put em in a box and send your way.

    I'm going to be in Dallas on Saturday, what are my chances of finding a couple bottles of this?

    I honestly think this will be sticking around a while (and by that I mean more than two days)...The main Specs told me they are getting so much they are putting it on display, and that is just one store...I would say chances are good (before seeing the crowds and mobs going after them lol)

    So, my wife will be in Dallas tomorrow for some nail-polish meetup thing....anyway she'll be grabbing beers for me. Anyone know of a bottle shop close to Max's Wine dive where she could find this? (I'll also take other suggestions on things not available in Austin if you want to PM. :-)

    Tasted the Raspberry temtress yesterday at Taps N Caps. It was ok. I prefer the BBT and Sin Mint. Definetely not worth $13 for a bomber.

    I wonder if a nice, reliable bottle shop in north Austin will be picking up some from the brewery.

    I found it to be very enjoyable and preferable to sin mint. Anyone in the McKinney/Plano area may want to check out The Pub in downtown McKinney. Lakewood had a promotion last night and they tapped Raspberry. Call ahead to make sure its still on.

    While you're at it, Mellow Mushroom has Sin Mint on draft as well as Grapefruit Sculpin and Christmas Bomb. Square Burger had BB 8 at one point but not sure if they still have any and/or they are serving it (sometimes they hold back certain beers for future release or events).

    For those not familiar, all 3 bars are a few blocks from each other.

    Don't think I'm brave enough to bare the 45 minute drive to Mckinney and Frisco.

    Any places by the colony that might still have bottles?

    I don't blame you, I rarely go south of 121 unless it's for work. I have mostly everything I want within walking distance or at my house.
