Already have some and will be grabbing more on the way home :ban:
Will post the loot tonight.

I assume you have bottle restrictions down there...here we get as much as we can afford :D

Dang lucky. Yeah most places down here have a 2 bottle limit except for this little gem by my house there u can get 4 packs I'm headed out today to see if there is any but usually well get it Thursday.

They will have it today probably. Our distro is slower than molasses in a Vermont winter up here and it was out today.

Water and Monster while I stare at my KBS at work

So far I have a 4pk and a bomber, will end up with at least another 4pk and bomber. We'll see if I pop it tonight, I can often get it on tap somewhere semi-local and then save the bottles for the cellar!

That's why I love knowing the beer distributors at my store. I'll save however much for myself. Sorry to others not in the trade..

Cool. Glad u said something as I went and stopped by my shop and grabbed a four pack, they didn't have bombers, prob be able to get another 4 pack on Thursday. Sadly the shop by me won't get theirs until Friday and I'm headed out of town in the morning but I may get lucky sincecnoone really knows they get it there may be a chance they'll have some when I get home next weekend. Put one bottle one bottle in the fridge for tonight.
 
It's like unicorn farts of chocolate and roasty bourbon barrel! Really good this year!

Kosmicki said the barrels used this year held bourbon longer than the recent years. Think it shows. Don't get the booziness at all

I cracked one of mine def unicorn farts up front lol. It's def smoother than last year, wonderful rich chocolate coffee finish and no detectable booze. I saw the same article you did and I agree it def shows, I love the coconut, marshmallow from the barrel this year, really good stuff. I'm def gonna cont the journey for More on Thursday.
 
Still a huge fan of nitro hard wired. This was by far the most KBS I have been able to get and I agree it was better this year than last. Managed to hit up a tapping in GR Friday night and get 5 glasses (2 pictured).

Wow nice haul man did u buy all that at one place? I just can't imagine a place selling a whole case to one person. Know they only do two bottle limits here because they jack up the price. Following up the 2017 kbs with a 2016 and whew this is still boozy but again has that awesome coconut marshmallow barrel character just more bourbon.
 
My own Wheatwine, Sonnet XXVII (for Pablo Neruda's sonnet, which begins "Naked, you are simple as one of your hands / Smooth, earthy, small, transparent, round: / You have moonlines, apple pathways: / Naked, you are slender as a naked grain of wheat."

11.3% ABV, 60+% Franco-belges wheat malt, 33+% Weyermann's floor-malted bohemian pilsner malt, 3% Patagonia malting Especial, 3% acidulated.

100% will kick your butt.

I got 4 of the four packs and the 2 bombers at Founders and picked up the rest at another place locally. Prices weren't terrible here, less than $1 a bottle more than Founders
