Brooklyn Quarterly Experiment Wild Streak

Anymore Juliet?

 

really want to try this beer, but they're still pushing their black ops anachronistic prices. sorry guys, you're not the only barrel aged stout/wild on the market, you don't get to charge $30.

if you can give me world class brooklyn black chocolate for $9/4pk in fucking manhattan, don't try to charge me $30 for your experimental version of a beer that masters make better and sell across the country/world for cheaper. no no no no.

 

Bought a bottle last night in CT. $21.

 

I posted a thread else where, but in seaching found this thread.

I got a bottle of it in GA, and I'm trying to find out if I should hold it for a while, or drink it now? They were limiting it to one bottle I believe, and had it in back as it was new. Paid $9.99 for it.

 

$9.99? That's a steal. I'd resell it to someone for $15 (the going rate seems to be ~$20). I thought it was a real mess of a beer.

 

the reviews that i've read seem to say the barrel/oak is very strong, and clashes with the bretty beer underneath. i believe them about what they're tasting, but personally they're description sounds like something i would like. i like my wild ales to be very oaky (see cascade for example).

 

Yeah. I just got this oaky/artificial vanilla flavor from start to finish. And it was quite a struggle for me to taste any kind of brett presence at all. And not even remotely sour. I was really pretty disappointed - especially at the price.

 

actually that sounds bad. I'll save my money.
