No. In small letters with a green box it says coming soon.

Understandable, as they are often released on Black Friday.

If you "heart" it, it *should* send you a notification when they hit the site. That worked for me a while back with Blanton's.

Thanks for the tip. I guess the "heart" thing didn't work this time.

Picked up one of each.

not sure if it was the heart thing, or the "notify thing" but I got my email, and my beer :)

It looks like the bottle limits have been removed for both BCBS.

Got to sell them all before the taxes collected fall in less than a week.

The Bananas Foster is actually a great price. About 35% less than in Buffalo

I wonder how banana-y the banana foster version is?
I've got a buddy whose favourite beer is a banana bread beer, so thought about getting him one.

Ah, link does not work anymore...guess it is sold out.

Yeah, looks like Banana sold out. Regular BCS down to $22.10 thanks to tax holiday, and still 450+ bottles left! A good deal.

I had the opposite reaction. Last years was meh, this year I thought it was fantastic. But I've been really into more subtle, well balanced stuff this year, as opposed to the flavour bombs of the past.
I used to sell beer. Now I don't.
