    Hello - I haven't been looking, but do any Boston area shops still have regular BCBS hanging around?

    Pretty sure Colonial in Acton has cases of 2014 remaining. You might have to ask but they have some in the back and (I believe) in the walk-in cooler.

    Also seen some overpriced 4-packs at Apple Country in Clinton.

    Just loaded up this week...wish I could track down some more 2013 - I've heard rumblings about 4-packs still being around from '13.

    How overpriced does it have to be to sit on shelves for 8 months? Most north shore places were selling it for $25+ per four pack and it was gone in a week.

    I still see it from 22.99 to 24.99 but mostly the latter of the two. Not too bad considering it's a high-octane world class stout.

    oh I'd say it's very underpriced when you compare it to other BA stouts. $6 per 12 ounces is super cheap for a beer of this quality. Compare that to Parabola or BA Darkness, etc

    I think it's more that it's expensive enough in raw dollar terms that most people spend a lot on it (and variants) and then sit on it...but not many people have the appetite to go dump hundreds of dollars multiple times a year on it. so after the initial rush (at some places) it sits
