    You forgot to include the date -- Saturday, March 13. :D

    I hope Night Stalker sticks around for more than that one day. I remember that being one hell of a beer last year.

    Ugh, I poorly assumed it was in the copy/paste....

    Editing to add.

    It's being bottled this year. It should be out in the next month or so I believe.

    I have not checked out that release calendar in a while - thank you for the link! I'm particularly curious about the Bourbon County Vanilla Stout. Shame I'll have to wait until next October (assuming the release date holds - and its presence at Stout Fest notwithstanding). Sofie on draft will be great, too.
    best,

    I'll try this before I call and see about canceling one of my RSVPs, does anyone want to go that couldn't get a spot? I initially RSVPd for 2, but it turns out I do not need both. If some one is interested send me a PM by Tuesday.

    I was at Goose on Friday night and the Night Stalker is no longer available on tap but is available in bottles (consistent with the release calendar linked above). I also saw bottles at the Whole Foods in the Gold Coast today. (I believe $9.99 for a bomber.)

    On an somewhat related note, happened upon some Founders Kentucky Breakfast Stout/KBS at the liquor store by my in-laws down in Fairview Heights, IL, where they had several cases available, so picked up a few 4 packs (although they remain down there until my wife brings the car back later this week). Anyone tried this year's batch?

    I haven't tried this year's batch yet, but I'm jealous you picked up a few four packs. I picked up two bottles of this year's, but most places in the city sell out the day it comes in or you need to be on their list to get any.
