New Jersey News, Releases, and Beer sightings

AWESOME! Sending my gf over first thing in the am.... Someone needs to do some work in this relationship!

Anyone know of anywhere in SJ that still has any Bayerischer Bahnhof Berliner Style Weisse Brettanomyces Experimental Edition around? The non-brett version is on shelves at WineWorks, but they're sold out on the variant, and I'd like to pick up a butt-load.

Any Dogfish Head Bitches Brew seen in North Jersey (Bergen County or near)?

Cheers.

p.s. what happened to the N. Jersey beer tasting club???

Bitches brew just hit wine and bev in totowa. $13.99/750ml and no limit. Little expensive :-/

Wow that was going for $8.99 when it first came out

yea it came in at a much higher price this time around

This one specifically:

I havn't seen any of those around in about a year? Oh and I've been looking for them ever since.

They were available at WW until about a month ago, and I drank at least half of them... weh.

Nice, good to know. I brought one down to your place for Kayy that one time, almost a year ago. I'd really love to find a stash, let me know if you get any extras.

Linwood has it for $12.99.

Maine Beer Company coming to NJ starting October 1, 2012. first beer available will be Peeper Ale

Sweet, I hope we will get regular shipments and it's not just a one-off.

Got a case of it for $60.

It was 19.99 in PA this weekend.... $13.99 sounds like a freaking deal!

did they have fbs or founders harvest ale yet?

Picked up some fbs, lagunitas day time, and bitches brew today in north jersey. Fbs was a little challenging to find. Most places sold out already.

You have to be kidding?

yea its selling out quickly, but more shipments will be coming in so dont start panicking

Yea FBS is weird this year, couldn't get a case anywhere and saw multiple 1 pack limits. Found it at a place and bought my limit of 3 four packs (J Canals). I hope in a month or so I can pick up a case, love keeping this one stocked throughout the football season.

didnt it only start getting delivered to stores yesterday? how many stores would have had delivery yesterday or today verus later in the week

Did not go there yet..they called me and told me they had bitches brew...not sure about the others.

So excited.

Not sold out already. Just not delivered yet. Not every store has a delivery day of Monday or Tuesday. Shouldn't be any limits on this either. My store got 5 cases. Already blew through a case and a half in a few hours but its available through December with Hunterdon likely receiving several shipments.

I nabbed some FBS at Joe Canals Burlington, they only got 2 cases this shipment, but expect more later this fall.

This is great. I went to VT last March, and found Peepers in a lesser-stocked store, having no idea what it was, but figured I'd try it. Went in the next day and bought a case off them. Stuff is great.

Where in Linwood??

There's a town called Linwood? Oops, my bad- sorry, being lazy. I meant Linwood Wines and Liquors in Fort Lee- in the Linwood Plaza right by the GWB.

Hahaha!! Yes! Linwood is in south jersey! Near Northfield - Somers Point area....I got excited! I have been waiting to try Bitches Brew for awhile :-(

Sorry again for getting your hopes up- I was responding to a request for Bergen County and used a bit of shorthand. If it's any consolation, we do have it in State, and hopefully somebody from your neck of the woods will chime in. Good luck, I hope you get it.

I love the thrill of the hunt!! Thanks!!
SOUTH JERSEY!! Where is the Bitches Brew?!!

I meant that most places that got it, sold out already.

FYI I just picked up a couple 4 packs of FBS in Boonton. $10.15. But they rang it up under Cerise so maybe that's not the real price. They were just loading it onto the shelf when I got there. Also, grabbed a bottle of Bitches Brew that they had in the back. $11.99 but came down to $10.79 with my NJCB card.

They were just piling full cases right up front. Looked like there were 5 or 6 cases. I'd assume that's probably all they have, and within 30 seconds of it being up there half a case was gone with me and one other guy so I wouldn't wait too long.

Bottle Kings have Bitches Brew for $8.99

Damn, $8.99 for Bitches Brew is a steal...

damn right, when i go back to visit my parents ill hit up the BK in my old town to grab some...

not confirmed at all from what I hear from my AB reps

I think more that greater than $11 or $12 is a little absurd.. And I don't mean that as any sort of criticism of the beer. What would work out to about $25-$28 or so for the equal amount of oz. if it were in 12 oz 4 pack (as I think DFH would be wise to do with packaging BB, like olde school, immort, etc.).. and I mean, I don't know what gesho root is running for these days, but for a beer that is released every year and doesn't have some ridiculous high abv ingredient demand like 120 min. or WWS it seems a little ridiculous..

Don't get the panic with FBS? I seem to remember it being pretty available for a few months last year once it was distributed. CBS and KBS were near impossible to obtain but FBS sat on shelves for a while.
