I doubt it. If it's in a six pack and the alcohol is > 6% per beer it can only be sold at the liquor store. I'm in baytown and tried all three liquor stores on Garth. The only store that had it was Planet Liquor and they sold out....said they were expecting more later IF YOU FIND SOME LET ME KNOW PLEASE!!! I'll let you know if i find some.
Not sure if this is a Baytown thing that you're referring to, but they are selling this beer at various Krogers and HEB's around town.
It's a Texas thing. a Beer wine can only have a certain volume of Alcohol in it to be sold in a grocery store. You can't buy liquor in any store for the same reason. If what the thread states, that this Divine #9 has like 11% alcohol it can't be sold in a six pack at a grocery store. A 4 pack maybe because Duvel's is.
Well, legal or not they are selling the 6 packs at grocery stores is what I'm saying. And they've done that for the last few years with these Divine's.
I think the law is as long as it is not over 15.5% you can sell it in a grocery store. What does a 6 pack matter?
I picked some up at HEB Vintage Park, if you are not sure where that is located it is at Louetta @ 249. There was some left at the store when I left. If you are interested you have to ask for them to go in the back to get it.
arghhhh. anyone know where to get the #9 anywhere today (thursday)? Post it up please, near downtown (UH main area) all the way up to Humble/Atascocita/Kingwood is fine. Also, what are ya'll doing? Is it on the shelf or do we have to ask for it? Is it better just to call around?
I tried this last night at the gingerman. Did not like it. But then again I'm not a stout man. DR8 was the best beer I've had in recent memory, though.
I finally got to try one tonight. My buddy had to drive all the way to grand parkway and mason to find it, and he was able to buy a whole case of it. The finish tastes a lot like a porter. If you like it, I'd imagine you'll really like Fuller's London Porter (my favorite porter).
I tried going here but they were all reserved for others already in the back. So I picked up some Dogfish Palo Santo beer.. I'd say two of these and you could be really good the rest of the night
