    This is all some of the best news I've heard in a while! From Brunette being compared to La Folie (yes, please!) to restoring 8 more tanks and possibly being year round. So stoked! Cheers to Scheel's! #germancraft

    Anyone see any of #2 on shelves anywhere recently? Hopefully in the west metro somewhere? Thanks!

    What part of the west? Believe I have seen it at Haskell's in Minnetonka, possibly Vinifera in Plymouth and I know my store in Hanover has it.

    Thanks everyone, I'll try a couple places in Plymouth tomorrow and go to Hanover if they don't have it.

    There's a liquor store in Hanover? I've lived in the area my whole life and somehow never knew about it. Where is it at?

    It is new, just turned 2. They are geared towards craft beer and have a pretty good selection and even pick up from distributors that don't make it out this way. The owners are also very cool, have spent hours chatting about beer. They also host beer and wine events at the River Inn in Hanover.

    It is in the stripmall next to Chops and the post office.

    It's still at the BX at the Reserve base off 62, but that only helps if you've got an ID card that gets you on military bases.

    Price check on the Brunette? I saw it in Madison today for $14.99 at HyVee East. That is $2 more than I paid for than the Frambois.

    Sounds about what it's at here in the Twin Cities, too. I think the price point has dulled the buzz on a series I was really looking forward too...& having the NG at $11/4 pack right across the river (or was, at least!) doesn't help.

    I agree with the price point being a bit high and in turn causes these to sit on the shelves longer than they should. They are excellent beers

    Agreed completely. I normally buy new items from them right away, but I know this will sit for awhile so I don't have to snatch it up right away. I still haven't bought this one yet. Wishing the prices were more in that 10-12 range.

    It's been $15 in the Des Moines metro area. Picked up another bottle last night. Definitely wish it was a bit cheaper but I'm used to our Schell's being more expensive than MN.

    Have they announced when the next beer will be released? Love this brewery.

    Harbor Liquor aka Mound Municipal store has 5 or 6 bottles of Framboise on the shelf.

    Side note, they have a ton of Mirror, Mirror if anyone is looking for that.
