[sacrelicio]

Good God this is a nice beer. I've had it before (and loved it) but it is better than I remember.

Tropical-style imperial export stout ale is a mouthful.

"Ale" is necessary here?

Smokey black licorice deliciousness

Call me a basic *****, but besides beers already mentioned, give me some BA Dark Apparition any day. Love the no-BA version too.

I almost don’t want to say anything so that I can hoard for myself, but Finkle and Garf in Boulder cans a phenomenal straight BB Stout that tastes almost exactly like pre-format change BCBS.

Actually, never mind it sucks. No one needs to find it.

If this was a real beer, it'd be amazing.

Thanks, Stubs for sending me a non-existent beer.

Yes, please.

It's not on the same shelf as BA Expo, but for the price I'd slurp on this regularly.

 

[thebandit1]

I faked this label and put it on a can of regular Ten Fidy. Nothing to see here.

 

[capnmike]

This is the only one of this set I’ll be posting- the rest are adjunct-laden...

 

[KevSal]

capnmike wasn’t foolin, these guys make some great stouts

 

[thebandit1]

Weird.

Those two beers in the corner of the menu definitely do not exist.

Plenty of BB stout left. No more BB Oatmeal Stout left in four packs though.

Cleaned out Hazels of the Oatmeal though.

Allegedly.

The O.G.

In the middle of a two month alcohol break, but may need to stock the fridge with these non-existent cans for the inevitable return.

This is a great beer. Arclight Brewing in Watervliet, MI.

For your $13 bomber, you get a ridiculous amount of bourbon, but it's smooth and silky, warming and oaky, intoxicating and refreshing. 8.5%?!? No ****ing way.

Oh, and there's a thick layer of super dark chocolate as well. So succulent.

One of the best beer surprises I've had in years.

It won't exist by then, unfortunately, but that is if it actually existed

Now I’m confused if this does or does not exist

It will not exist in August, if it ever existed

Here is a 20% ABV Stout straight BA Stout.

It’s kinda hot.

the frog still hops!

2012. Solid enough for its age. A little thin (better as it warms), but the barrel character is really still there.

 

[liquiddegenerate]

Pretty, pretty ,pretty good.

Always thought that was an underrated banger.

I had this crazy dream last night.

I missed those, if they existed. Stocked up on the other non existent beers from them.

 

[jmgrub]

OP dropping in with a little non-adjunct action.

This remains the most underrated BA stout in the country, IMO of course.

Blind tasted that with 2013 BCBS with 3 other people. Split down the line 2-2 for who favored which. I liked Silhouette slightly more at the time. What a great BA stout.
