Random Beer Thoughts

[JCastle1]

Can anyone give some insight on how the new CBS is and how it matches up to previous batches or beers like Michigan Maple Jesus, Morning Delight, or Good Morning?

The previous batch was nowhere near as maple forward as MD or GM.

Or as maple forward as the multitude of kegged batches before it.

I would probably murder a 2016'er for a CBS snifter.

I'm hearing good things on Pastrybook.

$100 for two seems a lot easier than murder.

Eh, 2016ers aren't worth much

Not even sure if it's around bmore locally yet. Gonna make one stop to see if they have bottles. If not, whatever. No ***** given.

How much are these CBS bottles going for locally anyways (Up in MI i mean). Don't want to get ripped off.

As tehzachatak said, MSRP is supposed to be $25. Most stores in Grand Rapids are selling it for between $25 and $28. A few stores in the UP seem to have it for as low as $23.49. Most I've heard it selling for around here is $34.99. (Note: I've avoided retail, so I'm going off of Facebook posts in the local beer group.)

Here in my small town in VA I think we got 5-6 cases, they were doing 1 per person at 27$ a bottle. That's not bad considering they are charging 15$ a bottle for BCBS

I bought bottles this morning at a large chain grocery store (Marianos) in Chicagoland.

It's a crazy time we live in where the bottles of Bourbon County and Canadian Breakfast Stout I purchased this year didn't even come from a liquor store, but from large chain retailers where alcohol is only a small portion of the business.

We saw CBS as low as $19.50 a bottle in S. Indiana. Seems to be quite a bit around this time.

NH is pretty loaded with CBS. Grabbed a bottle this afternoon for $21.99.

Called a few places on my lunch break about CBS; they're not getting in any until next week at the earliest. On a hunch, I walked into a local liquor store and instead found three bottles of B-Bomb on the shelf, at which point they were promptly cleaned out.

That's a win in my book.

I have no idea what actual batches I've had of CBS, but I had it on tap the last three years and I thought it was very mapley every time. If the bottles are even approaching that ballpark I'll be pretty happy to buy a couple. Two years later, those left a bigger impression on me than Good Morning.

I don't think I've had it since 2011, and I've tried Good Morning, MD, and Double Stack in the meantime. Might have to crack one tonight to see how old money pastry tastes to my new money palate.

Local Modist Brewing released a hazebro IPA today called Dilly Dilly and some Bud reps went over there and did this:


Beer is just memes inside of memes and weird **** all the time now.

Like, non-ABInBev brewers using it might be worse than the ad campaign.

Who needs stouts when your local shop just got shipments of 3F and Tomes

Plus I just picked up Tilquin Mure from one of your local stores.

Keep your CBS, I am good with what I grabbed instead.

Probably the haziest haze I've ever had. Mosaic, can't complain.

Tons in Seattle. Didn’t buy a bottle but had a pour at a random ass convenience store that sells beer. It was pretty good.

Nope, not Super Deli Mart. A1 Hop Shop in Greenwood. Way more random ass than Super Deli. Glass pipes at the counter and people buying Four Loko cases. Plus bottles of Holy Mountain and Fremont barrel aged goodies.

Super Deli has killer sandwiches, btw.

Good Mornjng is like 5000x better than the bottle of CBS I had tonight

I went to the local Jewel-Osco for peppers after work and didn't see any CBS. That's as hard as I'm willing to look for it.

Want a 64oz growler? $46 in Salem. But a 5oz pour will set you back $8. Wut.



















I bought a 5oz pour. No ragerts.
