    Has anyone seen this beer in the greater Boston area yet? I'm on the South Shore, and as of this evening neither Granite Liquors in Weymouth nor Derby St. Liquors in Hingham had these in stock. Was hoping to pick up a few bottles on or before Wednesday....

    Now that it is 12.12.12, has anyone actually seen this on any store shelves today? I've called/emailed a few places on the South Shore (Granite and Curtis in Weymouth), but unfortunately their deliveries aren't expected until tomorrow at the earliest. I would like to track down a bottle for tonight...

    I picked up two bottles of 12.12.12 at Granite this past Friday. It wasn't on the shelf, as 11.11.11 still was. But I found a Stone box in the back left side of of the store near that big table where they have a bunch of beers and opened the box and found it was 12.12.12. Also, BinEnds on Wood Road in Braintree has a display of it on their counter as of yesterday afternoon.

    Yeah, it's one of those "acquired taste" beers I guess. Opened a bottle with friends Saturday night...definitely lots of spices since it's a Belgian dark strong "winter" beer. Some raisin notes too. One of my friends said it was like drinking a liquid fruitcake!:rolling_eyes:
