    Any one know of a retail outlet that still may have some? I bought some over the phone with a credit card from a (now) shit hole beer store in Boston. They told me they'd hold onto for a week or so until my son could swing by and pick up on his way home here this past weekend. When he got to the aforementioned shithole store they told him that they weren't able to hold it for him any longer and put it back on the shelf and sold it(mine!)...Any help would be appreciated.

    i bet one of the marty's (particularly marty's big buys) would have some. at worst, you're sure to find someone willing to trade. it stuck around in stores for weeks if it's not still there. excellent beer, but not rare.

    I know...Just looking forward to this for a few weeks now. Plus I'm pissed that the dirtbag could 'store' 7 whole bottle without hurting his retail space....

    if marty's doesn't have it i guess you could try gordon's, some others (walsh maybe?). i don't know all around boston, but marty's would definitely be my first try for "reasonably in demand but large release a few months after the fact" b/c they seem to have things for awhile due to overpriced-ness, MBB being underrated, good distributor relationships, etc. if marty's is the shit hole store you mentioned, my apologies :grinning:

    He's in Coolidge Corners. I bought 7. Would take more or less depending... I'll see my son in 10 days for a short vacation in Scituate.

    I'll check some spots by me and will let you know. Check the other aforementioned spots from Pahn too.

    Did you get the 7 or did you lose out on them?

    Pretty sure it's called plaza liquor mart. The rest of their selection is horrible and old, but they have a bunch of that lol.

    Burlington Wine and Spirits on Middlesex Turnpike has (or at least recently had) it. 43 Middlesex Turnpike, Burlington, Mass. (www.burlingtonwineandspirits.com).

    I live close to Coolidge cnr too, picked up quite a few at Blanchard's Allston; most recent purchase was a few weeks ago though so I can't speak to their current inventory. Other places in the area worth a shot are Coolidge corner wine and spirits, bay state foods and liquors, Marty's big buys mentioned above, and even Brookline liquor mart (off comm ave in Allston). Pickings are definitely getting slim at this point, but you could get lucky.
