So I'm interested in acquiring some Upland sours (Persimmon, yes!) and maybe even a TBK but I have no idea how limited any of these beers are/were. Can anybody give me an idea of bottle counts/availability? I appreciate the help folks!
Teddy Bear Kisses is an $8 seasonal, shelf beer that is likely still sitting in some places around Indy. There is slated to be a bourbon barrel aged version released in the bottle later this year. Persimmon is likely the most sought after of their sours. There will be a release later this year, which might be easier to get than trading. The best bet is to try to snag one from the online reservation/lottery. I have traded Persimmon for BA Batch 9000, Cognac Church on a Hill, and Cali Brandy Huna 1:1, for some reference.
Teddy Bear Kisses is a black licorice bomb of thats your thing...go for it. When it comes to Upland beers, just stick to the fruit Lambic's and wild ales thats what they do best. Everything else is average or below average.
I actually like black licorice (kinda reminds me of my Grandpa) so I think it would be good! I may be one of the few folks who actually like Stone Belgo Anise IRS
