Mine arrived today. I knew I wouldn't be able to go hunt it, so I gave BeerShip.com a go. Shipping got slowed down bc of snowstorms, but customer service was great.

Been meaning to post this. Thanks Steve!

It's that pinewood derby time of year...

Also not beer related but figured y'all might get a kick out of this which I stumbled upon this evening.

Three bottles for $2k. Sounds like a normal trip to TG.

so, **** karbach and all, and ive still stuck with boycotting all their non bbh and certain f.u.n. releases (the f.u.n. exemption was created mostly with this release in mind in my defense), but dammit it pains me to say good golly miss Molly is outstanding. 3 legged lab was my favorite of their non BA stuff by a mile, and the bourbon barrel treatment takes it up to 11. ive got one more bottle i planned on stashing for a while, but thats gonna be a challenge.

luckily short of bbh variants (is coffee corfirmed as next?), i cant think of another beer in their lineup combined with any particilar spirits barrel that ill feel compelled to buy and contribute further to the evil empire, so this should be it for me and f.u.n. beers for some time. im counting this one as pre inbev era anyway. now that its out of the way, inbev can get to work helping karbach pump out the next few f.u.n. releases:

016 zee german pils beechwood aged with rice
017 krunkin pumpkin aged in rumplemintz.. barrels?
018 hopadillo aged 28 months in an east texas warehouse
019 a tbd beer that was discontinued due to nobody wanting it is brought back to be aged in franzia spacebags inside commemorative arena football team art boxes. much like 014 it will help inbev dominate the shelf space wars as nobody will buy that **** either
020 rodeo clown just gets labeled as a tripel instead of a iipa. the beer doesn't change, just gets more confusing. it doesnt even come in a f.u.n. bottle, just a beat up old rodeo clown can edited with a sharpie
021 watered down hopadillo negro with lime syrup, corn, and water from the rio Grande aged in dirty tequiza bottles, with a subtle rusting performed under each cap

wow why dont i work for karbach yet, i didnt even get into previewing my ideas for non f.u.n. beers (spoiler alert they're all just the existing beers but "light")

Thanks for the kind words and thoughtful FUN series ideas. I'll be sure to pass those along in the next R&D meeting

The actual upcoming beers will be:
KR&D Mint Chocolate Stout
Here Comes the Sun
OG BBH
FUN016: Neutral Oak English Barleywine
BBH Espresso
FUN017 Red Wine Barrel Here Comes the Sun
FUN018 Armagnac Barrel Aged Doppelbock (NOT smoked like Pontificator)

Somewhere in there we'll do a NE-style IPA and summer sour (on draft only) and introduce our two new year round cans.

I'll be sure to let y'all know when the Beechwood shipment comes in.

I LOVE GOLD!!!

Somewhat disappointing for an RRBC beer.


Much happier with this. All the sediment went into the left glass.


Forgot to take a picture, but my next to last 2015 Westy was still great. Looking forward to the last one in my wine fridge. May be time for another Belgium order.
