MA Bourbon County Release (2018)

Does GI sell well here in the land of Sam Adams, Harpoon, Night Shift and Trillium?
I'd imagine we don't move as much AB product as some less-affluent states.

 

Looks like fort point market had some 15/16 bottles

 

Wollaston Liquors in Quincy still has bottles of 2016 Black Friday items for sale, including barley wine.

 

Normal prices?

 

Picked up regular-barleywine-coffee-northwoods today in tewksbury so MA is getting those. The coffee and northwoods sold out as I was in the store.

 

Dions in Waltham had 2017 Regular and 2016 Regular + BW last night, 1pp @ $15ea.

Disappointed that places put them out early, but mostly because I never seem to get lucky with finding them.

 

Mind sharing where? Pricing? Haven't heard of any other stores getting Coffee or Northwoods -- and if they are, they're not posting about it.

 

Had to hit Market Basket in Tewksbury this morning, so stopped by the Oakdale Liquors next door. Wouldn't surprise me if it's what @robc3366 was talking about. Didn't see any Coffee or Northwoods, but a ton of regular and lots of barleywine on a shelf and cases more stacked on the floor by the beer section.

Great prices too. $11 for regular and $13 for Barleywine. No limits. Enjoy if you don't want to wait in line on Friday!

 

Sounds like Yankee Attleboro is planning a tasting from 10-1 with 2 bottle limit BCBS per person and a raffle for the variants. I didn't get any info on how much they had.

 

any early releases in cambridge/ somerville?

 

I got bottles of stout at Supreme Liquors in Cambridge last year for $8.99 each the week after release. Just saying.

 

Just noticed on FB that they posted about having them on 11/18. Unsure if there's any left, but if their allotment was similar to last years, there's a good chance that they have some regular BCBS.

 

We will have the regular at The Vin Bin in Hopkinton/Southboro/Marlboro

 

Apologies, i went to bef after posting. You are correct that was the spot. Had a case of coffee and northwoods to begin with

 

Thanks, was surprised how much inventory they had. Guess they sell a lot more ABInBev and GI than stores I usually frequent...

 

Ahhh! My bad, I thought this was the reg.

 

To be honest I don't know what they normally go for but I believe one of them was $60/ bottle, another for ~$15. I'll see what they have in stock/ prices and will post, will most likely be next week.

 

they're allowed to sell prior to Friday? Odd.

Yankee Spirits Swansea and Attleboro both getting 12 bottles of coffee and doing a raffle for them. You can enter from 9-12, drawing at 12. Unfortunately you need to be on-site to purchase at the time of the drawing to claim your win, so I won't be bothering.

 

No idea. I had always thought places were supposed to hold prior to Black Friday -- and I've had places in the past that ask early and they'll hook you up -- but they had a display there. Worked for me and easy to beat the lines!

 

They aren't allowed to, but some places just don't follow the rules...
