Who else is into this beer? I just found out about it during Thanksgiving. I went to Total Wine and bought $200 worth. The different varieties and tastes are insanely good. What else is out there?

Those folks up in the midwest have a knack for the brew, don't they? I wish I'd known of them when I was up near Chicago this summer - I might've made the effort to go to see them and sup some of their product. It would've been somewhat ironic to go drink a brew while on a journey to celebrate the life of my dad who died last year at the ripe, old age of ninety. He was over forty years sober! He would've laughed at that irony because he was almost always laughing about something, including himself. I raise my coffee cup to him!ReactReply - CNCool Nude DudeOriginal PosterDec 28, 2022
Yes, this company definitely does it right. I will continue to buy them every year now during their limited edition stout brand. You should still be able to find the general one in a grocery store or beer store near you. The other editions that came out this year are mostly likely gone already. They only distributed the real special editions to select stores. Let me know what you think of it if you're able to get some.
Thanks for sharing the story of your day. He had it right though. We always need to celebrate life. The people we love always want to make sure when they leave us we are happy and will always remember them. Life is too short, but so much love and happiness happens along the way. Cheers to your dad and his life!

MeJan 1, 2023They have some great stouts but have gotten too crazy for me with some of the variations. Not to mention the price of these bottles. I would love to try all the different ones each year but besides the availability, it's gotten too crazy for me. But if I see any on tap, I'll probably get a pint...I do have some older bottles...need to drink my 2017 sometime this year now.

The prices are really up there, but I think they are worth it. I had a bottle from 2017 and it was definitely a great beer. Defintiely one of, if not the best stout I ever had.

ClothingOptionalJan 13, 2023I always look forward to BCS. Only a few years ago it was almost impossible to get after the day of release, which is the day after Thanksgiving. When they began making variants those were even more difficult to find. However, now they are making more of both and they are readily available for some time. It is always a delicious beer!

I am just happy that one of my buddies told me about it. I have a few bottles aging at my house now. I can't wait to open them a few years from now.

I have a 2017 regular stout I forgot about and will open next week. Love how they slowly change over the years.

Lakeman221Mar 2, 2023Blue berries have NO place to be in a beer recipe.

Personal tastes are what they are - I love blueberries enough that I would try a beer created with them.
Now if you produced a beer with chick peas I'd turn down that offer...those things are disgusting! I have friends who love those little nuggets of grossness but they know to not offer that crap or any derivation of it if I'm coming over for dinner. If you handed it to be without telling me, Garbanzo stout I would spit out!
I do enjoy many types of beer. I've never made any - my homemade alcohol has always been wine and one of my finest vintages was made with blueberries back in 2010. I keep an open mind about most anything alcoholic until I've sipped it once, and then twice. I'll agree that some things are simply inappropriate additions to certain recipes, but I would give a gulp or two to a blueberry beer.

Some people like a fruity beer, some dont. We definitely all have varying tastes. Ill try a new beer but some favors are not for me as well :)
