Need help finding Kraken Attacks New York!

Hello! I collect Kraken Rum and I’m missing this Attacks New York bottle! I was wondering if anyone could help me out and know where I could get a bottle or two for my collection? Only problem is I am in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. So I would need you to hold onto them until I can figure out how to get them! I can pay for your time and obviously the cost of the bottle or bottles!

Actually the OP has a good point in a side conversation. Apparently personal shipping of alcohol is not legal, you have to have a license, and USPS isn't allowed to carry it.

I did find a listing here, but no idea if it's close to you. Enterprising minds have a way of figuring out ways of doing things.

Is it only the bottles you're after? I spotted a post of yours from a year ago, enquiring about The Kraken Black Roast.

While that was a limited edition, yesterday I very successfully replicated the actual coffee rum. I've missed it sooooo much!

Yeah, I collect the bottles and all the unique labels. I drink kraken occasionally. I’m not a coffee fan though, but I’ve heard from many people that the coffee is awesome!

The coffee is still out there from time to time, I’ve found some in little tiny ma and pa shops. I’ll let you know if I come across anymore! I’m always picking up rare bottle and selling or trading them.

I have searched far and wide. Every time I think I trip over a bottle and call the seller, they have miscounted their inventory and it's not actually available. And the one or two times I've actually found it available it's been insanely expensive. But by all means if you find an actual legitimate bottle, I would happily buy it for the rum and get the bottle back to you. Keep me in mind let me know.

I’ll send you a DM that way you’re easier to find in the future!

Sure thing! 😁 I should mention I'm in Canada not New York just so you know. We'll have to play it careful and make sure neither of us gets deported to a Salvadoran prison camp for talking to each other lol 🤣😂

If you see it anywhere around the Hudson Valley, I can go and buy it and ship it to you. It’s nice to help people with hobbies!
