Anyone tried this yet? Good reviews for the most part on BA.
This ones going in the cellar for sure, need to buy more to drink and possibly cellar more if its excellent.

Hey Seth, where did you find it?

BX Beer Depot, you have to be a homebrewer to buy it though. They require you to buy at least 10lbs of grain or extract, 3 ounces of hops, and a yeast packet to purchase this beer.

Whenever you pop open those Orval's you've been sitting on I would be curious how there are and also compared to a fresh one.

The Shack it is!

We should have a beer tasting table at the Shack,


No pics, but tonight I grabbed:

6 bottles of GI Nightstalker, and 1 bottle of Widmer Brothers Reserve Cherry Oak Dopplebock. This beer has been staring at me the last few times I went in the store like a kitten at the animal shelter. Figured I should rescue it.

We're planning on it, soon after the official announcement is made we'll start a thread. Not sure what the is for, bad idea or something?

Not a bad idea at all, a good idea. Had no idea that anyone was planning on it.

Well this was me just being lucky today. I was first going to just go to the local liquor store but at the last minute thought I would hit the big one on the east side of Madison. I was going to get some fixings for Dark n Stormy's. I grabbed my rum and thought what the hell I'll walk down the beer isles to see if anything jumps out at me. I've been cutting way back on beer lately and working out a lot. I was blown away by seeing packs of Founders KBS sitting on the shelf. I grabbed a couple packs and decided to put the rum back and with two free hands snagged four packs.

Didn't realize I had a nice little vertical going, hard to see the labels, but I've got '07, '08, and '09

I might be out by that store again next week, if they still have it I'll bring some to the shack,

I heard the GI Nightstalker was the same beer in the Bourbon County. Just stored in the bourbon barrels?

I would like to compare myself.

It's the same base, but as they put it, "dry hopped like madmen."

Picked up three of these this week - Brooklyn Black Ops. PHENOMENAL! On a scale from zero to college student, I am currently Taiwanese-sweat-shop-worker poor, so that was my beer budget for pretty much the whole month.



Oh right and a case of Magic Hat Vinyl, with a free set of magic hat glasses from the rep

Some new lager from Espana and and old fav Brooklyns along with a new stout.






The spanish beer is quite good. Will make a great summer drink. Clean, crisp but still very tasty

Estrella Damm is actually a very old beer. Zane drank it on his three sheets trip to Spain. Glad you like it.
