What BCBS is hitting MA?

Already picked up a bottle each of Brand Mon Cheri Stout and Brand Cafe De Olla Stout.

So we're getting (got) those at least.

 

I'd imagine those two plus regular BCBS. We never seem to get more than 3 variants... I don't plan on going too out of my way this year. I'm sure regular will be easy to come by, but for those looking to catch 'em all, Yankee Spirits always does some sort of release.

 

I've been confused how people are seeing these around despite events for "release" on Friday.

 

I’m confused that you are confused.

 

Doesn't it only release on Black Friday? I would assume Goose Island doesn't want this going on shelves early.

 

Like anything else, there's always a few places who either accidentally or "accidentally" put it out as soon as they get it in stock.

 

Fort Point Market has 2019, 2018, and 2017 regular on the shelves. 13.99 for any of those years

 

Oh, I was just way over thinking things. Thanks yall

 

I'll be curious to hear thoughts on the Cafe De Olla Stout. Shared a bottle this weekend and it was...interesting.

 

Anyone know of any bars or restaurants in MetroWest tapping bcbs? Or for that matter Boston area?

 

Hugh Oneils in Malden always does a black Friday event that includes BCBS and occasionally variants plus a bunch of other stouts.

 

If you are in the Metro West area, Bacon's in Framingham will have the Cafe De Olla for sale on Friday along with the regular.

 

They also usually have vintages of BCBS going back about 4-5 years. They offer any of the beers on tap in a flight (and individual 5 oz. pours too if I recall).

 

Thanks Rick! Hope all is going well! Unfortunately I won't be through Framingham until later in the day / early evening. I hear the de Olla is excellent

Anybody with a price check on the variants from this year? Grabbed 2019 BCBS in Tewksbury at Oakdale for $12.95. Sitting next to KBS and CBS on the endcap across from the Maine Beer and Epic. Didn't see any variants or any indication they ever had any...

 

Variants Between 22.95 and 25.99

 

I believe my variants were both $21.99 each.

 

No 2015? ;-)
