Today, I went to an Acme that I haven't been to, in search of Stone's Vertical. I didn't find any of that, but what I did come across was an alcove of the largest selection of beer I've ever seen. Started with a display of DH Punkin ($8) and only got better from there. A full shelf of singles, as well as a good selection cold, lined two walls of the beer section. Stone, Ommegang and Chimay had great showings, saw Piraat Triple IPA, Gulden Draak, Rogue's, Unibroue, and many others I can't recall now. Beneath that was an overwhelming selection of 4-packs and sixers.
On a little shelf separate from the others, I was pleased to see small singles of Chimay, Orval, and Trappist Rochefort, and other hard-to-finds. I left with only a Trappistes Rochefort 10, but I'm going back on Saturday to see what else I can grab.
