IMHO it's not worth the price but it's not bad by any means, I'd give it a 8/10. I think I paid nearly $15-16 for the bottle.

I have a few '08s of that Schlafly... I'll bring one or more up to DLD.
With that beer, older is better IMHO.
I just drank the last of my 07s.

I don't plan on drinking the 2010 till next Christmas, or even 2012 winter. So I assume the 2007's were the best ones you've had? I only paid $9.99 for a bottle, I may pick up 2 or 3 more just to sit on for 3-5 years, if they age well.

****! That's a deal. They cost me $10.99 @ the brewery.
Yes, the 07's were good, very good. I had plenty of opportunity to taste them progressing through the years.
I can still get 08 if you are interested. That'll save you some wait time... like almost 2 years.

WnB is my one of my favorite beers, I wish it was brewed year-round. I actually preferred this year's batch to FBS. I think I'll go chill one down right now.

I'm sure I posted this before but if you get a chance to get Terrapin Moo-Hoo Stout if you mix them 50-50 a Wake-n-Moo is delicious (especially if you then add a half shot of bourbon)

I will keep an eye out.

Not sure what you pay for W-n-B where you are. But Total Wine here had it on managers Special $8.95 a 4pk and I had a $1 off coupon. So good deal!

Found a little place by me that I had never heard of before this weekend.


Score!
I got the last six bottles of Hopslam he had on his shelf. I also picked up a Jewbelation 13 and 14

Nice score!

Sometimes the lesser known shops are the best places since they don't get picked through as often

I looked everywhere for those but came up empty, next year I'll be more on top of it. But I got my share of six packs so no complaints.

It is indeed tasty!!

Picked up a 6pk of Bells Dbl Cream Stout, a Trappistes Rochefort 10, and a De Dolle Extra Export Stout. The last one was stuffed away in a corner of the shop never seen it before I think it will be opened tonight.

I've had the Bell's Double Cream. Good stuff. Unfortunately, the only Terrapin I've had was one I picked up at Total Wine in Orlando in Dec of 2009. They need to distribute up here, I think.

If it's still available, I'm picking up at least 2 sixers of hopslam on friday. If anyone wants any, let me know. Kind of expensive at $18/six pack, but it's truly a "tongue-bruiser" as described on the back of the bottle.
