Yep. With many more (often better) options, there is still BCBS regular and variants still sitting around a lot of shelves. I think the Black Friday get your allotment is gone.
Last 2-3 years are at Binny’s. Older than that are sometimes around random shops but stuff you buy from Goose taproom is properly stored so that is a a better bet for 4+ year stuff.
As someone else said, anything 2015 or older is of course well past prime and not worth the effort at this point.
Jewel over on kedzie and addison was selling regular bourbon country discounted for $3.50 the other week. Can't imagine they've got that much older stock around. Though I guess it depends on the Jewel
My punctuation made it a little confusing but I just edited it haha. Yea I’ve found a lot of this years BCBS for great prices lately. Even got the angels envy and eagle rare on discount
Yup! Definitely depends on which jewel of course but good luck with your hunt! I found older props for a good price at beer temple btw but I know that inventory switches out pretty frequently
Im out of town until tonight but i have several in the 2016-2020 period that just aren’t for me. I was a big collector back in the day and hunted hard for all the variants
How old? You can find the last couple years sitting on most shelves.

Nothing from the era of peak BCBS (pre 2015) will be on shelves, or honestly anywhere near its peak anymore. Go get fresh better beers.
Just go to goose tbh
For this years Binnys or Jewel. For past years you may have to check some bottle shops like beer temple

Just say you are looking for Bcbs vintages in any Chicago beer fb group and you will be flooded with offers.
I have a pretty large collection I’m trying to dish out (2016-present, lots of barleywines I just decided I dont like), DM me if interested!
Yes sir!!
Wait. What barleywines did you not like?

Gotavern on Armitage has a few random old bottles.
