    Yeah, I think you gave me the heads up on that last time. But I'm not paying $15 for one bottle. $7-8 is what I'm looking for. Take home as well.

    Had a couple yesterday and I like it more than ever. I only had it fresh once or twice but it seems more tart then I remember it and dangerously smooth. I enjoyed 'em very much, probably more then I should have.

    On a side note, I also had BB1 and BB3 side by side and although I enjoyed bb1, I thought bb3 was significantly better.

    I still don't really care for BB2. It just tastes like medicine to me, and not good medicine.

    Had some #2 and #3 there tonight for after dinner drinks. Ahh.​
    Did not have until now so no comparison possible from me but was good for us all the same. No extremes, refreshing etc.

    This... #2 is coming along. It's not the best beer I've ever had but is a fun take on barrel aged beer and quite enjoyable.

    #3 is definitely a bit better than #1. I don't think any of them are world class beers yet but they're hopefully headed that way.

    Does this beer ever make it out of Houston? Never seen it or heard of it being available up in DFW

    Yes, it is (or was, depending on location) in DFW. It looks like most places got it last week. I know Holy Grail started selling it Tuesday or Wednesday and someone else mentioned Common Table still had some as of Friday.

    BB1 & BB2 were distributed here as well

    Well cheers to those who got it. I didn't even hear, but didn't ask much either. I need to check tomorrow. Thanks

    Agreed 100%. I'm not saying any of them are world class but I think they're headed in the right direction and I have my hopes up that they will continue to improve.

    BB2 is on the shelves at Halls, Grapevine Wine & Beer, and Bear Creek Wine & Spirits if you live in NE Tarrant. Seems like $6ish for singles, and Bear Creek was selling sixers for $32 I believe.
