You would stand in line for rocky road beer.

Only if the base ice cream is vanilla. Marshmallow flavor is no longer enough. Must say vanilla on the bottle.

If Hailstorm released a vanilla beer I'm afraid we'd end up in some weird infinite loop...

True enough but I don't give a **** about all that.

 

[Scalzo]

Whatever beers they brought to Stoutfest were horrible, I think that was one of them.

 

[jakeox]

Did they seriously charge $40 for vanilla big hugs?

$14.

Yeah, I gave up trying to find a working version when I got into 2014.

 

[YellowBird1]

How do you know it's fresh? Until they start dating their cans I'm not buying.

They're currently dating with stickers:

They're currently dating with stickers:

Ugh, Julian Please dating.

A small part of me actually felt bad for them that they had to advertise there were still some for sale on Monday. They kept posting twitter updates that got sadder and sadder. I think they really thought there would be a big line and it will instantly sellout on Saturday. It's nice to see that the Chicagoland beer scene got a little more sane in regards to this project.

I've never been a fan of any of their beers, so I'm not surprised...

If it didn't require me going out to Naperville to sign up, I probably would have bought in. Heavyweight Ticklefight Champion of the World was a solid BA barleywine. I also liked Full Mallow Jacket and Most Important Beverage of the Day, even though it wasn't given the barrel treatment.

I signed up. I guess I'll go back to BA since none of the cool kids here joined.

Yep, makes sense.

FYI I just popped into the Half Acre store and they have a good amount of the Big Hugs glassware on the shelf. $9 for the glass, I think it's a cool glass.

This. I haven't had a beer from them that I would ever actively seek out again. I live 10 minutes away and didn't sign up.

Recommend a shelf turd mead found at Binny's, or at least meaderies to consider or avoid.

Yes to B Nektar and most Wild Ossom. No to Blue Dog and most Redstone.

Edit: yes to Crafted except the Vanilla Cinnamon. And jury is still out on the place downstate.

 

[Scalzo]

Or order schramms on the internets?

 

[trickytunadicky]

Or go to Bev Art and do a $5 tasting of Wild Blossom. Buy accordingly.

DID SOMEONE SAY VANILLA

 

[trickytunadicky]

Your funeral. It's not good.

 

[RedCoffee]

Vanilla Variant Vince would not be pleased.

Speaking of which, did you try that vanilla cyser from Vermont I sent? I didn't think any of those Vermont meads were great, but all of them were okay especially at 12.99 for a 4-pack of tallboy cans.
