I was just looking for more info on the FW XII and I happen to come across your blog. My family and I were actually at the table next to you at Memphis Minnie's, my brother in law was the one that was extremely excited about the FW beers. Found out that City Beer had their FW event tonight and we passed by. They ran out of the XII for sale in bottles but had some available for tasting. We talked to a rep from Firestone and he mentioned that Whole Foods had some bottles available. We booked it on over to Whole Foods out in Oakland and we were told we had to ask for it by name and guess what, they had some. I was expecting to pay the $30 you mentioned but happily found out that they were selling it for $20. Supposedly they weren't supposed to sell it to me today and that it was supposed to sell next Wed. or Thur.. The sku # actually doesn't come up in the register. I was originally going to just put some bottles on reserve w/the original guy that helped me there but the person in charge of the beer and wines came out after a couple of minutes and handed me my 2 bottles. They are also going to have a limited supply of Beatification available the same day for about the same price! Hey!
