I'm not trying to be a poopy pants, but only recently did I realize what a big deal it is that you guys can get this.
I can buy a case nearly any time I want to here in NC... I've only ever failed to find it when I went to look for it one time at my normal store.
Good beer, but maybe it being common in my neck of the woods removes of the specialness of it.
It's only distributed one month a year. How are there cases just sitting around you 12 months out of the year?
Misunderstood or trolling?
Yes... I am a supporting member so I can come here and troll .
I've looked for it a total of five times in the last two years and every time a huge amount has been available. A friend of mine bought a case three weeks ago, and I chuckled because of the big hoorah here. I was at a small liquor store two months ago 500 miles away in Cincinnati and they had six four packs sitting on the shelf.
Maybe my experience has been lucky, but it has been my experience none-the-less.
I'm a complete idiot and an ignoramus.
I'm thinking FBS.
I'm so sorry... Sigh. I'll now accept all ridicule. I deserve it. Man, I'm embarrassed.

Even then, FBS is an exceptional seasonal beer. In Illinois ot is limited.

I was wondering what a good time to cellar it is. Ultimately I am drinking one this weekend, sending, one to my sis out in Seattle with some other goodies, and saving the last. Any ideas?
Were you able to get pick any up this year TrustyolJohnson?
The Bloomington friar tuck had a two bottle limit and sold out in 20 minutes. I was lucky this year and got two.

I'm rarely interested in beers that breweries do once a year that make the masses go nuts. Just not interested in hunting down one beer when there are 1000 different beers at my local store.
Three Floyds does the same garbage. Make it difficult to obtain and watch the drones open their wallets. No thanks. It's just beer.
meh...my buddy got his hands on 20 without much effort. I got 5 and one as a gift. I don't seek it out. But if I see it, I will buy it. It isn't mind blowing either.
Yeah, I kind of doubt that. Stores aren't even getting much more than a couple of cases and if you're not buying/selling enough of the other Founder's stuff, you're not getting a case at all. One bottle shop got a case, between what I am sure he held onto for himself and maybe a couple buddies, he had about 16 to sell. 2 bottle limit. A very large shop got 3 cases, sold out in under 25 minutes. 2 bottles per until the last case then 1 bottle per. Your buddy isn't getting 20 without much effort unless he knows someone and that someone got at least 3 cases.
Edit: I'm an idiot.
It takes a big man to admit as much.
