    So.. Stupid me saw Ninja versus Unicorn in Chicago at all of the Binny's but I thought nothing of it.

    Later, I had a buddy ask me if I could bring him a bottle. I thought it was still on the shelf but Binny's is out.

    Does anyone know of a store in Chicago that still carries it or would anyone have a bottle that they would trade me something for? I'm pretty swamped at work so my driving is pretty limited. I'd love it if someone lived or worked near downtown Chicago to trade or let me know of a store around here that still had it.

    Binny's south loop had a case on the floor still today. Otherwise I would try the Marcey St Binny's.

    Good luck

    I just called the South Loop at 8:58. A non-beer employee said he briefly checked and there was no Ninja left.. I assume if it's gone from SL, the Marcey's doesn't have it either..

    Yeah. I called and they sold the last bottle today. Pretty unlucky.. Thanks though, I should've posted I checked that first.

    Marcy was out this weekend. They brew it regularly though, so it'll be back soon.

    West Lakeview Liquors should have most of the recent releases including NvU.

    Marcey didn't have any yesterday but did have Close Encounters and Jones' Dog. I picked up a bottle of N v. U at Capone Liquors last Thursday. I also picked up a bottle of Sucaba there.
