Hey Fellas. I did a search and didn't find any threads on here that tracked the releases of the rare and more sought after beers out there. So I thought it would be worth getting a running list going as the releases are announced or happen. Posters can just note which beers, the timing of the release, and the area they're in.

So I'll get it started

Surly Darkness - I'm a bit behind on this one as it's already been released, but my local Chicago Binny's has had a bunch available. You just have to ask for it and can get two at a time. We're sitting on six bottles of the '17. LINK

Central Waters Barrel Aged Quad - I know Central Waters isn't a nationally known entity, but their barrel aging program is awesome. It's to the point where their Cassian Sunset is not put out on the floor and is gone within a day or two. This one is supposed to be awesome. It's being released this week in Chicago (their Space Ghost should also be hitting shelves this week). LINK

Bourbon County Stout - Probably the most well known release, hitting shelves everywhere on Black Friday...at least in Wisconsin and Illinois it is. LINK

I saw on twitter that the barrel aged ten fidy is currently getting canned up, but I haven't seen anywhere when it's going to start hitting shelves.

You guys have any to add?

Grab me a bottle of that darkness please. Think I still have a '16 in the fridge. Agree with you on central waters. They do some great stuff. Have some cassian in the fridge and the barleywine going back to about '12. I found that quad to be a bit thin last year though

My local spot got some Central Waters in this week. Are these the ones your are talking about.

Beers

Edit. I thought the Off Color was Central Waters. Is that worth picking up?

Trillium has their TrillBomb on tap today only. Their bottles sold out faster than any release they’ve ever put out.

May be driving there just to enjoy a pint.

Darkness was good this year, which makes the wait for Barrel-Aged Darkness difficult.

Not really appropriate for this thread, but might be of interest to you guys:

Grace and Grit is back in Arkansas again. It's been probably 3 releases (maybe 6 months?) since I saw it here last.
