I've had luck with these posts in the past and typically contribute when I see then for my area, but I'll be in St. Louis on 02/10/13 for one night and was hoping for a bit of input from fellow BAers on my 1-2 stops that evening. I'm staying at the Hilton @ the ballpark downtown and will not have a vehicle (but don't mind taking a taxi) My plan was to check out Bailey's Range...as it was featured in BA issue#72...but figured I'd leave it open to the forums to help me make my decision. Thanks again! (I don't mind links to this exact thread someone probably posted last week)
4 Hands and Urban Chestnut for brewpubs and the Bridge for restaurant/bar, all relatively close to each other

I'm curious about local bottle shops as well, is whole foods going to be the best option for a variety of local offerings? Is there a chance BA abraxas bottles will available for purchase (all reviews are on-tap so far, don't know much about it other than it sounds a hell of a lot like BA huna)?
Wine and Cheese Place in Clayton and Schnucks at Ladue Crossing, Richmond Center or Des Peres should cover you on bottle shops. I find that he bigger places like Friar Tucks and Lukas have date issues. Avoid Whole Foods. Very overpriced and selection is meh.
Check out our blog, I keep it updated for each new release as they hit the market here in St. Louis thewineandcheeseplace.blogspot.com
No, it's a brewery-only release and it sold out today. You might be able to set up an in-person trade for it though.
