    Beer karma is always a good thing. Someday, somehow, you will be rewarded for this.

    Yeah 28 bottles is absurd anyways. I also plan on giving 2 four packs away. One four pack to my brother in law and the other to my dad. then i will give a bottle each to the two guys I brew with and a bottle to my sister in law. That will leave me with 17. Drink a few now and then one every month or so. Life is good sometimes. Plus I know they will repay me with some good brews!

    It's good to be generous. 17 is plenty. Honestly, every year I just try to score a single 4-pack. If I ever did buy an entire case, it would last me for years. No way would I want to drink that stuff every day. Once every couple of months if enough for me. With all the other stouts I like to drink (Speedway, Ten Fidy, BCBS, Founders Impy Stout, Pt5, etc.) I just wouldn't find time for that much KBS.

    I went all over trying to find it yesterday, then I called around today, found places who said they would have it at a certain time and they didn't. Then my girlfriend texts me a picture of a 4-pack and makes my day. Nice.

    not me. i've gotten decent amounts over the last 3 years and decided it was too much hassle seeking it out. i like it, but it's not that great IMO.

    First time I've ever seen it on an actual shelf today... I had to do a double take. It was limited to 1 12oz bottle per person... but I was cool with that (no lists, behind the counter, wink / wink shenanigans...lol)

    Agreed. it should last me at least a year. I bought 8 bourbon counties a couple of months ago. I still have 7. It certainly is not an every day beer. At most once a month. I agree about other great stouts too. I usually drink a couple of big beers like that on the weekend and tend to switch up which ones I drink. I am just starting to age beers too. It sounds like KBS changes drastically with age. It will be fun to see how they change.

    Yea I am just now getting into the trade game. I am not sure I will have the ammo to get some KBS, but I have wound up with nothing even actively trying for the last 2 years so I am hoping this will be the year.

    I'm picking-up 2 bottles tomorrow.... One for me, one for a friend. I'm grateful they're being held for me! This whale has been elusive to me until now....
