And it's 100 degrees in August.

But I could drink these year round so I'm stocking up while they are fresh.

100 degrees?

In August?

In Dallas?

It's a miracle!

Yeah, unusually cool this time of year.

And now back to the point...
isn't this even earlier than normal?

Retailers are getting stuff out earlier and earlier for special occasions. Halloween stuff hits the stores here the day after Labor Day.

Halloween stuff already out here. Was shopping at Costco Saturday and people were loading up on giant spiders and other Halloween decor.

They also had two different Octoberfest beers in stock (Sam Adams and Spaten).

Oktoberfest is in September. First weekend of October is the last weekend of Oktoberfest.

Oktoberfest brews are out in late August in Germany too.
