Any news on this year's release date around here? The Goose Island website says the house release is Black Friday.

A few of us scored at Oakland Rd. and somebody got skunked - a couple of spots too far back in line. Best guess, they were sold out of their allotment in about 15 minutes!

The ration was one 4-pak BCS, one 4-pak mix of Coffee and Barleywine, and one bomber each of Big John and Backyard Rye. With tax and bottle deposit - $73.56 (or about $0.53/oz).

They were bringing around samples of the 4 sisters and 2009 Christmas, too, while you were waiting in line. Nice!

Crap! Sitting in South Dakota with no BCS available. I've got my name on several waiting lists but the beer stores claim ignorance... On Nov 29, 2013 2:58 PM, "tony b" <shelf@crbeernuts.org (shelf@crbeernuts.org)> wrote:
