    I like hops in my B-wines, so I started with this deliciousness....

    Definitely agree. I thought what was interesting about it was how un-stoutlike it really is. I didn't know what to expect and don't have much experience with Baltic Porters, but I figured a 10% ABV dark beer brewed with coffee and chocolate was probably going to be very stout-y. In some ways, it is, but in a lot of other ways it was very different—but still plenty tasty in its own right. Very interesting beer, and very tasty.

    But I still want to see Sixpoint put a proper imperial stout in a can . . . as well as a saison (lookin' at you, Harbinger).

    2012. This gets such a love/hate following. I will say that the first time I had it (2010) I loved it!! It turned me on to the Flanders/Ode Buin style. This batch, not so much. I feel this is a little thinner than I like. It could be my palate though.

    After running on very little sleep or food for 5 days, I've decided to crack a growler of Alpine Bad Boy.

    I wish I could give you a point of reference. :slight_frown: I bought it at a place in Columbus, OH when traveling through coming back to PA. I checked Breckenridge's website and it looks like they don't have it available, unfortunately. If it's any help, it's the Small Batch 471 glass.

    How is the BW? Was able to pick up a bottle but seems to be less of it out there than the PM.

    I just started reading the Darkness vs Dark Lord thread. I might need to get something else on deck in case this doesn't work out.
