Passed on the Infinium yesterday. @ $19.99/bottle it was a little too steep given some of the reviews I read.

Instead I picked up 6 more bottles of Lucky Basartd and a 6 pk of Victory Yakima Glory.

MikeyC...I felt I got suckered into buying it by the fancy presentation, the rolleyes was at myself.

Tried it last night...this stuff is the real deal...will be getting a few more bottles for sure. Excellent beer! However, it does worry me that the more we buy the ~$20 bottles, the more $20 bottles there will be.

Then I'm guilty as charged. I've bought 9 bottles of the Infinium so far and have 2 more on hold. Plan on bringing a couple home for Christmas and a few more for a new year's eve party the week after.

I really like it. It smells like beer but has a lighter fruity taste to it like you normally would get during the warmer months. I couldn't drink it all the time but its good for a change of pace or if your having drinks with people who normally don't like the bitter taste of beer. :2

Stock up if you like this beer. I understand they won't be making it again.

I hate to pay $20 for a bottle of beer but if they can charge a premium for a super premium spirit why not a super premium beer? I understand it took two years to develop this beer and it's not an easy beer to make so I don't mind paying a couple extra $'s.

9 bottles, wow lucky. I searched and came up with 4. I wish I could get some more but everyone in my area was limiting it to one bottle per customer and the other half of the places had no clue as to what I was talking about.

Got to know some people well at one shop in town. I had one reserved at said store and when I checked out they told me there was one more left if I wanted it. I was also on another list across town.

For some reason this was easier to get then Vanilla. :sh

I didn't have any trouble finding a couple bottles, but it sold out pretty quickly. Did you try the beer finder on SamAdams.com? I used that the pinpoint my search. It tells you what stores received bottles.

I was surprised how easy it was to find. Finding Utopias is much harder.
