    I'm not exactly sure what you are proposing here, but I may be interested if she's hot.

    Alright, I have to say I laughed at that. One million Black Notes to sleep with my wife...

    Someone on the trading forum already brought it up, but I don't think too many people caught it. It really wasn't that quiet of a release because of the amount of people from out of town stopping in on their way to, or back from Kuhnhenn's on Friday and Saturday.

    Although I have not cracked one of the newest bottles yet, I can say that I have had Black Note many times over the years and have not noticed any significant variations in different batches.

    I'd love to get my hands on some black note.
    Had at the Valpo Beer fest this year. And it really hit the spot!

    I don't get it. BA9K took a week to sell out (with a mass BA posting and 3 bottle limit). Yet, this goes in 1.5 days with a silent release and a 2 bottle limit. Ermm are we sure this wasn't just a small Holiday surprise, with more being saved for a later release?

    That's exactly it. There's no way this sold out this quick, even with BAs going for multiples using various disguises.

    The original Black note release still lasted 11 days, and I think BA Batch 9k lasted closer to 2 weeks.

    They did this with the last batch of Wild One. Was there for a while, sold out for a couple weeks, then mysteriously back in the store again.

    Don't take the number on the bottle at face value. That may not be the number of bottles that were sold.

    I can surely see that happened. about 50 bottles a hour went out the place x 8 hours. thats 400 bottles a day time 3. surely at least killed 1200 bottles.

    I heard they had two pallets, I saw one at 16 per level and 3 levels high. Mathematically thats about right.
