    This is a retail question, not for the release party this weekend at the brewery, but does anyone know where these will be available at in retail? I talked to the guys who own craft beer shops here locally and they said they weren't sure if they'd get any. I live in Raleigh so anyone who found some last year in retail could tell me where they got it so I can look wold be much appreciated!

    The best advice I can give you is that if you're just looking to try it (as opposed to trading it or something), then just look for it on draft locally. I'm sure several places will have it over the next several weeks, and it may even cost you less per ounce.

    Bottles are going out, probably not more than a case per store but your top craft spots will probably get some.

    I've seen it on tap at a few places in the past, if it's 19 degrees out there tonight good luck and dress warm.

    Retail is very, very limited. You are much more likely to find it somewhere on tap than find a retail bottle for sale.

    I've had it in the past on draft, but never been able to get my hands on a bottle. In fact World of Beer in Raleigh tapped a 2011 SC that they had been aging in the fridge on Thursday night and it was fantastic. But I'd like to get my hands on at least 2 bottles so I can drink one and then maybe trade it for some stuff I've never had before.

    Sam's got two cases in at separate times last year and they were gone in approx 20 minutes. As others have said, much easier to find on draft.

    I saw on Twitter it's showing up in places around Charlotte and Asheville. Unfortunately, those are south and west of where I'm at in Raleigh. If anyone starts seeing them show up here in the capital city let us know so we know where to look. Many thanks!

    Most of the local shops will see bottles in very small allocations.

    I've been asking around and that seems to be the general consensus amongst the shop owners.

    At least one keg got tapped this week ... Tyler's Raleigh. Don't know if there's any left/how long it lasted. I think I may have seen a second tweet, just can't recall right now.

    Bought 2 bottles (the limit) in Hickory yesterday. Super limited. Already gone. I'm giving them to a couple of awesome trading partners.

    It's still not in bottles here in Raleigh. How is this possible?!

    yeah, I saw on Twitter where Asheville and Charlotte were getting them, and of course Winston-Salem had some too, but nothing here in Raleigh yet. I'm kind of surprised.

    The Bottle Shop next to the Tyler's Carrboro got a case.
