Stone Xocoveza spotted in Orange County?

I do believe it was suppose to start getting bottled either this week or next.

 

"Our newest release is the stuff that local homebrewers' dreams are made of...and one brewer's in particular. The champion of Stone's 2014 American Homebrewers Association rally and homebrewing competition, Chris Banker, got to brew his Mexican-hot-chocolate-inspired recipe at our Escondido brewery with a little help from Mexico's Cervecería Insurgente. Chris Banker/Stone/Insurgente Xocoveza Mocha Stout is an intriguingly complex brew brimming with an earthy medley of spicy, roasty flavors, and we're sending it out into the world starting Monday, September 8. "

 

Welp, that would be this week then. =P

 

I'd like to keep an eye on this thread for sure. Xocoveza is honestly my most awaited non-member-only released beer this year.

 

I received my shipment here in Newport Beach today. Everyone should get it this week.

 

Local bottle shops in SD usually get their shipments on Wed/Thur it seems.

Might be able to find this at BevMos though sooner.

 

Also, if anyone spots it in OC/LA/SD/IE please post the prices too. I'm planning on stocking up with as much I can get so that would be a really helpful info!

 

Wonder if it'll make it to SoCal costcos.

 

Time to buy a case.

 

That would be excellent, though I'd assume that would happen a week or two later than everyone else's shipment (typically what I've seen from Stone's beers at Costco).

Gonna call up Beverage Warehouse over here in MDR to see if they're thinking Wednesday or Friday for delivery.

 

Just saw on Instagram that El Cerrito (Corona) has it already. Limit one though as of right now.

 

I picked up some this morning in Costa Mesa and popped in to GHT and tried it on tap. Solid brew indeed, but a little to much cinnamon for me.

Reasonably priced around $7 too.

 

Its on tap at goat hill?

 

This..and where did you get it in Costa Mesa? BevMo, HighTimes, Baycrest

 

Bradleys Fine Wine and Spirits in Tustin has some.

 

we try and get releases to the stores before the date it comes out so everyone can grab it at the same time

 

Doesn't seem like it has hit West LA yet

 

Yesindeedee. Taps were getting serviced as well.

 

Got lucky and picked up a couple already thanks to El Cerrito Liquor Let's see how it is from a bottle
