    One I hear every year from people in beer departments is "they didn't make as much as they did last year" or "we didn't get as much as we did last year"

    Don't forget San Antonio hasn't gotten any yet.

    FYI... There is a full case on the shelves at the volente HEB (620 & Anderson mill) for those who haven't gotten any yet.

    I'm beginning to think that Austin got all of this beer. Seems there is a non-ending string of cases. lol

    Yeah, I'm starting to consider taking a 3 hour drive to Austin just to go get some....lol.

    Not limited stuff. Maybe for 2-3 days max. Buddha was gone in a day, Abyss in two, Funk Metal in 4 I think. Pumpkinator required an employee escort. Black Ops was gone in 3 or 4. They have plenty of Tactical Nuclear Penguin though, and Ballast Point (if you're in SA and dont want to drive all the way to Austin).​

    Well that explains why they got so much. :wink:

    Sounds like they don't have problem moving product.

    We still have TnP in Houston and I've seen it in New Orleans in the last few months as well.

    Although interesting, they aren't particularly good, so it doesn't surprise me that a meh $100 bottle of beer(s) is still on the shelf.

    I would imagine so, bunch of broke college kids drinking Natural Light or Lone Star... even when I was in college there I wouldn't have known what Abyss was (or been able to afford $15 for a bottle of it), I was still in my entry level craft/import beer phase (Fat Tire, Shiner, Sam Adams, Guinness, Newcastle, etc.)

    I think someone would've posted in this thread if they in CAPS, with bold italics if they had.

    As of now, us Austinites are now lookin' like complete jerks who hoarded all The Abyss. :slight_smile:

    Who distributes Deschutes in Houston? Because it's hard to imagine anyone sucking more than CBC and they're managing to do it.

    I don't know. In only here on a business trip. But I called D&Q and they said it "hadn't hit TX yet". But clearly it has... But maybe it never gets to Houston?

    http://www.deschutesbrewery.com/find/

    Does anyone know if this list gets populated ONCE a beer is delivered to the shop, or once it leaves Oregon? Can't really find any locations in Houston that are receiving Abyss
