    Very hit and miss in my experience. Some stores you can only count on BMC.

    Anyone have any thoughts on it yet? Pretty intense and boozy.

    All I know is that I only bought a single bottle last year and it's the only beer I've literally craved now for months. I will buy no less than 6 bottles!

    Picked up two today in New Jersey. Upon check out one of them exploded at the cash register. Beware of gushing bottles.

    absolutely......and not close. Although I still like the last two Enjoy Bys better than this one.

    "Hot" and boozy to me. Those in favor of "enamel removers" will appreciate it. A lot of complexity--respect it for what it is and, who knows, if they continue to bring it back, maybe it will grow on me. I also agree with those who feel Enjoy By, although quite different, is more "enjoyable."

    I like how Stone pushes the envelope with both of these offerings.

    Its definitely a face melter. I think anyone of these respectable breweries like Stone know how to over hop a beer. That being said, Im glad I got a bottle, but its not anything that I would go back to with any regularity. Enjoy By on the other hand has a customer in me as long as they want to. The 2/15/13 on draft is literally one of the best beers I have ever had in my life.

    My thoughts exactly
    It's still a solid 4/5 beer but not equal to the hype

    normally not a fan. of ipa's but drinking this now and its actually really good.smooth not too hoppy but hoppy enough to make it fun and not very bitter just the right amount.I'd drink this one again.

    I agree the Enjoy By was better IMO but still was nice and ultra fresh. I'm glad Stone is starting to do these fresh beers beers. For a moment I was starting to get jaded on Stone. Keep up this krazy alchemy. Much respect.:slight_smile:
