Well Kristen I should clarify, I WILL DRINK IT and enjoy it, but like I said, not a fan of it. At least not a big-a55 glass of it
like I got at Flying Saucer the other night.

From CCB:

The first 2 editions of the collab are Bohr & (D)irac. Bohr draws it’s name from Neils Bohr, nobel prize physicist. (D)irac is named for Paul Dirac, another physicist and inventor of the “Dirac Equation.” They are sweet imperial stouts brewed with raisins, each will a slightly different flavor profile. This 3rd edition “Nielsbohrium” is a blend of both beers, aged in rum barrels.

OMG...I think I need to change my pants! A stout that was aged in rum barrels, named after Niels Bohr, father of the Bohr atomic model that was a foundation to my collegiate education. DAMN!!!

Well that was a bit longer than 20 mins but I had to finish the 4 pack to get a true result.

I liked it. It's not quite the same as last years brew but still very good. The Apricot flavor seems to be much more muted for some reason.

Great looking haul! I love Dirty Bastard and though I've never had it, the Surly Furious is on my must try list. And some Woodford to boot

I think I am getting the hang of this.........MAN, Greg, I almost picked up that Roquefort today
but it was JUST outside my desire to spend money today, it was 6 and change after I already
had these 3 packs and a bottle of Bacardi Select and one of E.W. Single Barrel. Just couldn't
justify it today.

$4.50 a bottle seemed like a good price from what I have seen elsewhere. I have seen this stuff as high as
$18 a freaking bottle, generally in the 8-11 buck range. I guess there is a reduction with the 4 pack anyhow,
but $17.99 was an easy choice. And that's the problem, isn't it?? Freakin 18 bucks a sixer for BEER??

Default Re: beer hauls

Brad you have yet to learn.....beer is no cheaper than cigars.

If I'm going on the less high end size I'm happy to get away with $18 a sixer. Most often it's more like $30-$35

Rochefort Trappistes 10 is like $8-$8.50 for an 11.3oz
DFH WWS is $10 for a 12oz
Avery Mephistopheles is regularly $8-12 for a 12oz

Plenty more but you get the point. Beer is certainly not cheap.
