Let me get this straight, I can buy a fat sack of the stickiest of icky but not a bottle of beer???
Parry's pizza here near my house has a great bottle list (for at the restaurant), but they are twice as much as the store. Drinking there with food is one thing, but why pay that to take home?

I'm always amazed when I walk into Safeway in California (or Walgreens even) and see liquor for sale. The day/time/holiday/lunar vortex relative positioning/etc doesnt matter. They are always willing to sell you the hard stuff.
Stone Master of Disguise....with my eyes closed I swear I'm drinking a slightly inferior Founders Breakfast Stout. Thoughts y'all??
Also, apologies if you can't recognize me in the pic due to my undercover efforts.
Nothing crazy, just a damn good solid beer
I've got a stone master in the cellar. This pic puzzled me, it's a stout, blonde in color?? Kind of remember reading that on label but not certain.
Exactly. As they say, it's the stout counterpart to a black IPA. However, I would go so far as to say it's all stout with the singular exception of color. At least black IPAs have some sort of hybrid characteristics

Hahahaha.
It is a good beer, but I had to laugh at your post because I have a friend that uses Grand Cru as his comparison to EVERYTHING. Every new beer he tries, regardless of the style, is "well it's no Grand Cru". It's a running joke we have between a few of us.

Drinking my only Bourbon Barrel Temptress tonight... wish I would have cane across more of them.

Yeah. That beer is a trip. It tastes like it should but doesn't look it at all.
It looks like a local liquor store here got their hands on BCBCS and are releasing it tomorrow at 6. Limit one bottle
Because 24 oz isn't enough
Just kidding. I use it to cook yellow rice.

Great googly moogly....

I had mine last week. The nose was terrible but it did taste exactly like a stout. Was a very interesting beer

I think you're taking my post on some bomb ass chronic a little too seriously.

Strat seems to be a bit high with the 3 responses...
I have some extra BBT from this year if anyone would wanna do a local trade or something simple. I'm always just looking to try some new stuff I can't normally get hands on up in Dallas.
Also, the Sin Mint Temptress is pretty awesome if you can find it on tap. I know Ft Worth CM has some as well as Craft & Growler. Definitely worth at least trying.

Aw man! Yeah I called yesterday and they didn't have it, but I figured I'd try again today and got lucky. It's probably one of my favorite variations of the Temptress yet. I don't know how much they got either, so I am not sure how long it will last.
Just tried the Bourbon Barrel Bomb. It was amazing, as expected. What wasn't amazing was the price Flying Saucer charged: $25 for a 12oz bottle.

Prairie is good but they are way too proud of their brews. I wonder if Oklahoma laws are what keep their prices so high...

I'd say it's because people keep buying the beer.

I buy it but I would buy 3x as much of it was $5 a 12oz instead of $8.
Same goes for JK
