This just hit the shelves around here yesterday in limited quantities. It has been described as being similar to Imperial Biscotti Break. I bought two and plan to buy more to distribute to those who are without via trade.
On a serious note, how was it? I am pseudo obsessed wtih Biscotti and stocked up when I had the chance. If Lil B is anywhere close as good I will do the same with it
I'll be honest, I loved Imperial Biscotti Break....but most Evil Twin beers are WAY overpriced in my area, so my experience with their beers are very limited. That being said, if this is supposed to be as good as IBB I'm going to have to try it.
It's named after Brian, the owner of 12% Imports, the company that imports Evil Twin. That being said, I will just ignore the truth and go with it being named after the Based God himself. #rare #secrete #based
I have downed two so far and loved every drop. It is similar to IBB but should be consumed without comparing the two. Lil B is datey/figgy and vineous when cold. As it warms, the chocolate shows up and the roasted malts begin to give the beer a stout feel. I thought this was fantastic and am going to have to buy a case.
We brewed it for ET. Same malt bill as IBB just no almond, coffee or vanilla addition. I like it alot more than IBB but that's just me.
Upstate folks- A friendly FYI that it's on the growler station (in addition to bottles on the shelves) at The Community Tap. Very tasty stuff. My thoughts on it: http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/24300/84140/?ba=PDXHops
