Got lucky on that, traded for a bunch, then they ended up selling another 3pp of it and LPF at public brew day.

care to share a picture?!
 
So, a few weeks ago I picked up a couple of Upland Sours for @BeerMeDuffMan along with my own. Apparently he was happy with it, because he bombed my porch! Totally unnecessary, but highly appreciated! Can't wait to fight off my wife for the bacon jelly. The generosity on this site has no limits - guess I'll go dig into my own big box of yum!

Thanks again, DuffMan! Cheers!

Mmm bacon jam
 
What's the technical difference between jam and jelly? My expertise in the area is limited.

FWIW - it says bacon jam. I haven't tried it yet.
 
in the traditional sense, jam has chunks of fruit in it (vs. jelly which is juice and pectin.) So for this, I'd say it is jam if there are bacon bits present. And please, don't say you're not sure - how could you not have used that on something within 5 minutes of unpacking it?!

The wealth of knowledge on this site in tangible and impressive. [emoji12]

I don't have a great excuse, except for the sinus infection that's preventing proper taste perception. It's staring at me though....
 
LOONS!

So, slightly off topic question. Does anyone think a $60 bottle of rare is gonna be worth it? I want to say no, but FOMO.

If you think its a good deal then it is. For me no. No beer is worth that amount though I have spent that much and more for a beer. That is retarded because its not a small amount like last time they release it and its not pappy though 35yr old whiskey which wont bring too much to the table like fresh or early aged whiskey. I'll say no but if you want it then yes.
 
Last batch of rare wasn't a small amount. Something like 11-14k bottles. It's overpriced for sure and I haven't had it yet, but there are a lot of mediocre beers that are probably more overpriced (Cascade, BA Rasputin, etc).

Yeah, I've had rare and it was great, but it wasn't 6x better than bcbs and not even their best offering. That said, when I see the resale market at $250, I feel like I should grab one. But I'd rather drink a beer than try to sell it in a secondary market. So... maybe I'll pass.

Maybe.

I can PayPal you if you wanna grab it :)

The other difference is the amount of sugar added. Jelly typically has more sugar added than jam.
