Hoppin' Frog BA BORIS Variant

I will be looking for two bottles if someone would like to work something out. If so feel free to send me a message. Thanks.

 

Who's going tomorrow? I know I am. I haven't decided whether to try and show up at 10 or just wait till 12ish

 

Saturday for me.

 

"we have no plans to put this into distribution" doesn't sound anything like a guarantee that this won't be seen on shelves soon.....

Either way, there should be plenty, and us Midwest folks aren't so bad..... Limited locals make it happen

I'm just getting one for me, and one to send to Beerdy, so don't ask me no questions, and I won't tell you no lies.....

 

Curious to see what the bottle looks like pics please when someone grabs theirs today

 

You need to try more Canadian whiskeys. There aren't many good ones, but I'd hardly write them all off as worthless either.

 

Cheers!

I can't wait to be drinking this at their new pub soon

 

I'm going down around 1ish. Save some for me!

 

Pretty sure that pic is broke, at least for me?

 

Nvm

 

Sorry, but blended whiskey in general is too mild for my tastes. When there's a readily available single barrel/small batch Canadian whiskey at a reasonable price, I'll be happy to try it. Until then, I'll stick with something like Elijah Craig or Ridgemont.

 

Posted my review, took the afternoon off and had to crack one. It's a solid A- to A now, if it gels just a bit, it'll be the stuff of legends!

And this 100% will not be distributed. Any remaining bottles will be available as carry-out until they run out or at the new tasting room (which looks awesome BTW).

 

Love BA Boris. I'm certain I don't understand all of the complaining about price. It's a top shelf BA stout and there are other options out there that we pay a lot more. Any decent barrel aged bomber under $20 is a win. Keep passing on this BA Boris, i'll keep buyin'em.

If they truely don't intend on releasing this outside the brewery, I'd love to get my hands on 1 or 2. If anyone wants to talk trade, msg. me.

 

Glad to hear it - a friend is picking up some for me today!

 

I read that about 15 minutes ago. Awesome review.

 

Nice review! You nailed it. This version seems to me to be the thickest yet in the series. And in a good way!

 

Does anyone know bottle counts for this release?

 

idk but wasn't the limit like 2 cases per person?

 

Yep. No distribution tho

 

I thought it was fantastic. Here's a video of Fred talking about Bairille Aois BORIS in the new tasting room.



I enjoy talking to him when I see him at the brewery, but I'm a tall guy (6'5), so it's a little weird.
