    It made a brief appearance here in Will County, IL. Sold out by 3pm at three of my local spots, was still able to score two sixers. One of those spots was binny’s in Bolingbrook.

    I would check your local Jewel. They are selling for $11.99.

    Every year this shit gets harder to get. At this point it's lost its allure. It used to be a great buy hidden gem, now it's still a great buy but requires sneaking out of work to hunt down, really a shame.

    The best $11.99 I've ever spent, it's at least as good as High Westified in my opinion, and I still have both regularly.

    It's legit 1/3 the price of other similar top tier BA stouts, what'd you expect? Four cans of Cafe Deth for $30 or 6 bottles of Willettized for $12. Not a difficult decision.

    Does anyone know when the bottle shop inside Lagunitas is supposed to have it, or did I already miss that?

    I'd be surprised if they get much of it -- I stopped in at a grocery store after my local liquor store sold it as limit 1 bottle. The liquor department guy happily sold me the only case they got straight off the dock, basically to limit the hassle of finding shelf space and printing out a shelf tag for 4 six packs that would sell to the first neckbeard that passed by. (They don't sell single 12-ounce bottles except in their create-a-six-pack-of-old-beers section.)

    Yeah I am only seeing it sold as single bottles. Doesn't seem worth it to drive 30 minutes from work during lunch to pick up a single.

    Hypothetically, it could have been 4 people that passed by? Ah, who am I kidding!?! It would have been one neckbeard that passed by before the 4 people, correct.

    Willett's own distalate is outstanding though.

    Anyone have any info on the coffee used in willettized (or high westified)? I assume it might vary depending on whether it was brewed in IL vs CA.
