    Any word on when GI Madame Rose is being released? Thought I saw a few weeks back it was being bottled.

    This is going to be one of *those* answers and I'll apologize in advance -- but I think the answer is, "When it's ready".

    If I recall correctly, Juliet sat for 1-2 months after it was bottled and before it was released. I think they want to be certain nothing wonky goes on once the beer goes into the bottles. There are probably smarter answers than that, ones that involve science and acids and whatnot, but you get the idea.

    It's bottled, but Goose is extremely picky about when their stuff goes to market. When they feel it's ready, it'll go out.

    at the chance of sounding ignorant and selfish, i'm not. friend of a friend of a friend's 'source' etc got them in. From my gf who surprised me today. this should be hitting the stores this week. price was pricier at 23 bucks plus tax, i'd imagine the regular markets would be a few dollars cheaper. such as binny's.

    I would hope it's not any more than Juliet? So it would be around a $19 price tag at Binny's.

    Note: I think I paid $15 for the 2010 a little over a year ago.

    Binny's on Grand. You have to call ahead and get put on the list for some reason. List is not full, they have the bottles in hand, you can still call and get placed on it, but not pick it up without being on the list.


    Also, lots of BCBS just came in!

    thanks! way cheaper than what i paid :slight_frown: a premium that may or may not be worth it to be the first person to have MR by only 8 hours before anyone else. bring it.

    Hope to see some around Milwaukee sooner than later. Really got lucky with Lolita, randomly saw a lone bottle at Whole Foods and snagged it, but never once saw Juliet.
