Super User S Hovanec Posted December 9, 2015 Super User Posted December 9, 2015 My cell rings today and I see it's one of my local beer distributors that seems to have a knack of acquiring hard to get brews. I had a feeling I knew what it was about as I was only looking for one beer in particular. I was right. 3 Quote

Super User 00 mod Posted December 9, 2015 Super User Posted December 9, 2015 That is all you got? Jeff Quote
Super User S Hovanec Posted December 9, 2015 Author Super User Posted December 9, 2015 That is all you got? Jeff Yea. They only got 1 case in. I'm splitting a case of DFH Fort with another BR member. Picking it up on Saturday. Quote
Super User .ghoti. Posted December 9, 2015 Super User Posted December 9, 2015 Being in Illinois, I've seen Goose Island beers on the shelf, but I've never seen that particular brew. I like stout; I grew up with Guiness. How's that one compare? Quote

I like stout; I grew up with Guiness. How's that one compare? Its pretty fantastic....way heavier than Guinness and about 3x the ABV as well. It's released on Black Friday and the lines for it are like you'd expect for cheap TVs at Best Buy! That's probably why you don't see it on the shelves. Quote
bassh8er Posted December 9, 2015 Posted December 9, 2015 Was that supposed to be a picture of Coors Light? Quote
Super User S Hovanec Posted December 9, 2015 Author Super User Posted December 9, 2015 Was that supposed to be a picture of Coors Light? Lol, afraid not. I wouldn't even use CL to steam shrimp! Water imparts just as much flavor. Quote
Super User Darren. Posted December 9, 2015 Super User Posted December 9, 2015 I'm going to have to try that stout. Seen it before at a local wine/beer store. But I've had to lay low on some of the stuff, packs on way too many pounds, LOL. One such stout is Dragon's Milk. Gosh that's good stuff. Quote

This one is a few notches up from that. Quote
Super User Darren. Posted December 9, 2015 Super User Posted December 9, 2015 Dragon's milk is good too. This one is a few notches up from that. Really? Wow. Then I must try it. Is it a few notches up in alcohol content, too? Quote
Super User S Hovanec Posted December 9, 2015 Author Super User Posted December 9, 2015 Really? Wow. Then I must try it. Is it a few notches up in alcohol content, too? It a couple % higher. Think it's around 13% or so. Quote
Super User S Hovanec Posted December 9, 2015 Author Super User Posted December 9, 2015 Seen it before at a local wine/beer store. I'm surprised there's still some around. Either people don't know about it or they're afraid of the price. I had a friend try to get me some in NY and it sold out in 9 minutes. Quote

Drank one of the larger bottles (bigger than 12oz). Glad I was at home, put it that way. 1 Quote

There's too much of that on the road. 1 Quote
