Picked some up at Leblanc's Fresh Market last night.


Is it just me or does the wax get a lighter shade of maroon every year?

Whole Food on Vets in Metairie had the Grand Reserve out last night. Looked like they had 2-3 boxes left.

Stopped by Elios at around 6 yesterday, and didn't see any out on display, so they were either sold out or they were tucked away in a backroom.

After not seeing any at the Whole Foods on Magazine or Elios, I went to the Whole Foods in Metairie.

No limits at Whole Foods in Metairie, and I got 3 bottles.

Last year, I was able to get some at the Breaux Mart on Magazine, so that might be worth checking out if people are looking.

Sounds like it's not going to be as hard to come across this year. The store I stopped at said they got 3 cases, and could get 3 more when they run out.

It's good. Pick up a few, try one now and wait a few months to break out the rest.

I'll have to take a pic later if I remember.

I really like the Imperial Reserve wax. It's a gunmetal color that looks really nice.

Did they say at GRD if Parish was going to ship IR to distributors or was it a GRD/brewery only release?

Gotcha. I just left when I didn't see it on display. I figured if its behind the counter, they are probably trying to keep it for their regular customers.

Whatever was left after GRD was going to head out to distributors. Not sure how much that ended up being, but it won't be a lot. There were only 90 cases to begin with.
