    They way this is going backwoods and harvest might hit the shelfs at the same time.

    I'm not trying to poke you with a pointy stick or anything but I must ask: Why did you make a point of picking up expensive beer that you've found unremarkable in the past?

    A 2012 and 2013 in a blind test. Both were excellent.

    Has the ABV changed this year?

    Distributors are getting Harvest to Oakland County today. A number of the stores I frequent have confirmed this as well

    Got some this week in MA. Good, enjoyable but not anything special. Maybe I'm spoiled with all the great choices.

    Yeah, it's changed to 7.6%. I got a 4 pack of this the other day. I'm going back to my guy to buy a case if he'll let me. This is one of the top five beers I've ever had

    I agree. My first time trying it and I really like Centennial and All Day so I was excited for it but it was ok. Very good but not as special as I hoped.

    OK, Im going to give it another shot. I just finish my 4 pack of double dose and some HT that I had lying around. And some dirt wolf and 2 nd anniversary Jacks Abby. Maybe I have some kick a$$ hop palate fatigue. In general I have been disappointed with Founders, good ,enjoyable but not worth the hype or price IMHO. Any standout Founders you would recommend? Not impressed with the bourbon barrel stout. Flame away.
