Wow, this is awesome. Reminds me a lot of KBS.

More importantly, how'd the gay date go?

Man, I love this beer. All stocked up.

I bought a 4-pack of this yesterday - really awesome stuff. Really expensive in CT ($17 for 4), but worth it.

Just got my hands on one of these bad boys. To say that I'm excited would be an understatement:

yum

A buddy brought a 2012 KBS to my sons 2nd bday party. That is one beer that lives up to the hype. Holy shit!

Goose Island's BCS comes out in Buffalo today. Hoping to snag a bottle or two.

Let us know if you have any luck. Also, are any variants available? If so, grab a Proprietor's (the coconut) and definitely the coffee. Grab as much as you can.

This is a really good brew and a bargain for Unibroue. I still have one cellared from last year.


Still waiting for the delivery of BCS. I've been calling the dude at my shop like every hour.

Three Penny in Vt.
Monk's in Philly
Armsby Abbey in Mass.

and all but the last one in NYC.

Tied between Bierkraft and Monk's Cafe for my fave.

Kinda disappointed that The Blue Monk here in Buffalo didn't make it. It's kickass.

I think my 2 favorites are The Daily Pint here in Santa Monica and probably my old hangout The Blind Tiger in NYC

I managed a four pack of the regular BCS, a single coffee and a single Barleywine. They didn't get in the Rye or the Proprietor's. There was a limit of 2 four packs of the BCS and single bottles for the other two. For a small shop they actually got in a lot.

That's pretty awesome though.

I suggest aging at least 2 of the BCS and the coffee (which is amazing at about year 2), and drinking the Barleywine (it can come out thin if aged). Right now the BCS is a little hot, but still incredible.

I'm still looking for the Proprietor's and some more coffee (I was only able to get 1 coffee). I have 18 bottles of BCS though. Maybe I'll sneak in a trade with those and a Dark Lord for something.

Anyone know the distribution area for Firestone Walker? I know they are California are they regional only?
