    I just stopped to pick up some beer at the Branford Wine location by the Big Y when the nice lady told me they had just got some BCBS. Naturally I had to pick on up. They only got a case...it's gonna go fast.


    I've never had it. Looking forward to cracking open a bottle.

    Oh. My. Gawd.

    I'm not a bourbon drinker so I wasn't sure how this would go down for me. Delicious that's how. It feels so good in the mouth. There is a lot happening here that more knowledgeable BAs can speak to. For me it's simply an amazing stout.

    iiiiiinteresting! So much for those distributors saying we'll get it when we get it...glad to see the BCBS is at least hitting a few parts of the state. Here's hoping fairfield county will see some!

    Coastal Wines has BCBS now, if you haven't already driven down to NY and picked some up a month ago.

    I wondered how much Coastal would be. I think it was $22.99 at Branford Wine. Their prices on Founders are better there too.

    No idea. they actually sent me an email (nice touch) to tell me it was in and said they'd hold me one.

    I bought enough in the last few months that I figured i'd let the CT people have it.

    Grabbed a 4-pack ($24.99) at Total Wine in Milford, also the 11/7/12 date. Drinking one right now, and it's amazing.

    I'm also a little suspicious that CT distributors could take a beer from bottling to shelf in 7 days but it is definitely drinking fantastic as ever.

    For those in Central CT, I just left Manchester Wine and Liquors and saw a stack of about four cases in their storeroom.

    Thanks for the tip on this. Grabbed a 4-pack for the low, low price of $25.99.
    I was able to snag a couple of Stone IRS's so that partially made up for the price jack on the BCBS.
