    It has 15 4.5s and someone had to ruin it with a 4.25. We almost all agreed on something for once.

    Have not tried the bottle yet though.

    0 reviews. Is this the right place to state that adding the 'hads' function has destroyed the integrity of the notion of BA ratings?

    So one of your comments still stands, but you never explained this one:

    it's really cute that every state and city now has to measure their dicks against one another.

    and truthfully, what makes a beer "world class"? to me, it seems like hype, limited quantity and limited distribution are very critical factors in making a beer "world class". there's very few beers out there (king henry, chocolate rain, maybe some of the veritas one-offs) that have legitimately lived up to the hype of world class.

    How DID this thread get hijacked anyway? Oh yeah. We know.
    Anyone cracked a bottle of BW XV yet?

    I have to say, the hijacking on this thread has been world-class. Bravo!

    I would pop one of my bottles soon to ease concerns about carbonation, as well as to write a proper review—but since we're all a bunch of homers, none of you would believe what I told you anyway.

    It's a California brewery, though. So, you know, it's good.

    I haven't watched this thread in a while. I'm thoroughly pleased that I peeked in.

    Pure gold.

    I never said I was going to give it a positive review.

    picked up a bottle from a trade and wow, I really like this brew. Love the almost wine like finish it leaves. The carbonation wasn't bad at all even though I carefully opened it up. I really want to grab another bottle or two, so if anyone would like to pick some up for me we could work out a trade, just pm/bm me.

    Opened a bottle on Friday. I thought the carbonation was spot on.

    If you're still looking, I'm happy to grab bottles for you. Was just at Bottleworks today. Stacks of bottles available at $25. I don't know when I'll be down in PDX again, though.

    EDIT: Willing to ship, too, if you want the bottles quicker than waiting for me to come down.
