    Kinda late to get this started, but it's as good a time of year as any I suppose.

    Anyone seen the Bent Paddle double shot double black 4 packs around? I like the mixed pack format this year. I'd like it more if it was in my fridge.

    Have not seen it & I've been watching.

    The one I want to locate is Lagunitas Willettized. Per the brewery beer finder it isn't in MN currently. I hope it gets here!

    Back Channel Brewing had a big bottle release on Saturday, mostly stouts (see their website if you're curious). Had two & they were good & really damn good. Still had all but one of them when we left Saturday night.

    I saw via Casanova's Instagram that they had it in stock in Hudson. That was a week ago, so YMMV

    I haven’t done any bourbon county shopping this year. Any places still have any of the variants?

    Yeah, all but the BW and 30th seem to be lots of places, especially total wine.

    MGM Eagan had it last night. I would imagine the TW would have it soon too.

    Yup, came here to report both of these. Limit one 4 pack at MGM Eagan & it may well be gone by now.

    Dual Citizen Brewing in St. Paul has a barrel aged barleywine in the taproom that you can order called Mayhem & Mischief. Despite having only had their beers a couple times I'm going to give this one a shot - there are far, far to few barleywines on the local scene!

    Had to check this out - I did not know it won a gold medal at the world beer cup.

    4 packs are $20, pretty good deal. 4 packs plus 2 glasses are $50, which strikes me as not a very good deal.

    A collab between a brewery and itself, brewed and packaged by a third, unrelated brewery! Collabception
