    Went to the HEB on Grand Pkwy to scan the shelves for anything that stands out (nothing there usually does, other than the 3 or 4 cases of Jester King Wytchmaker that have been sitting there for months) and right in front of me are 3 bottles of Verticle Epic 12-12-12. There wasn't a price tag on the shelf but I was willing to pay about $15 for each bottle. They ended up ringing up for $7 each.

    Find anything cool/out of the ordinary at your local place?

    Wow, that has to be a huge mistake on their part. They must have priced it as a 4 pack of the BCS.

    Why do people want Wychmaker that has been sitting around for months?

    Not to be a dick, but I would say they don't. Hence the reason its sitting around for months.

    shit. i would pay even 15 bucks for black ops, but the 23.99 ive been seeing is a bit over the top and as it didnt really stand out to me last year when i received it as a gift, i didnt buy any this year. but at 9.99 who could say no

    LOL... there's 2 cases of Wytchmaker and 2 cases of Noble King that was sitting in a corner at my local HEB for at least 6 months. They recently smartened up and put them in the cooler and I think they're moving now. Mmmm...

    It's all over the place. Not just one store.

    I actually should buy one to confirm a theory I have. Wish they were $5 and I wouldn't think twice.

    They do not have a beer guy. That's the problem.

    Sorry, don't wanna be an ass but... 12/12/12 is all over the place... even where I live i was able to find it in large quantities, and the bottle shops around here are not so good.

    Don't give a fornicate about 12-12-12 but nice BB 24. I've got a 23 and I just migt run down for a 24 pick up.

    Edit.....I wonder if those beers came from the nonpurchased employee stashes.
