    Just buy a lot of La Petit and you can still drink it all day. :wink: They hand bottle/label right now so I wouldn't expect anything in small bottles in the near future. At that price La Petit is less then $3 a 12oz so not too bad a price point.

    True enough, and yeah I don't expect anything in the 12oz. bottle anytime soon, would be awesome though.

    Yep I had a Commercial Suicide go off in my car. Cap shot off like a cork. Too bad you missed out on Drink'in the Sunbelt(wrong name in my above post, d'oh). Really really good stuff.

    Just bought a bottle of Das Wunderkind at Twin liquors on Red River. Last one in the store! Super PUMPED right now. I've been looking for these since the release and found one on a fluke.

    This is why you guys are gonna be a very successful brewery. (Well, not to mention all the amazing beer...) Humility is a rare thing in business nowadays!

    I am hoping they haven't discontinued it completely even though I had a gusher also. I am not sure if this type of beer would really work with the Farmhouse Yeast strain they are using. It is hard to call it an English Dark Mild without English yeast. I am sure they know what they are doing though so, go Jester King!

    We ran some test batches of Commercial Suicide with the farmhouse yeast, but the original malt bill didn't really mesh all that well, in our opinion, so we've been reworking it a bit and running some more tests. If all goes well, we should have a farmhouse version ready sometime this spring.

    Cheers,

    I believe I saw some La Folie at the Alon Market HEB this weekend, but not a lot. Worth a call to Brian Tarver there before you go.

    quote="mhenson42, post: 1023, member: 638477"]Seen any La Folie in SA? I had it on tap last night at FS and wouldn't mind getting a few bottles. I couldn't find it last night at my usual spots, but did get a bottle of Le Terrior - never had that tho, so I don't know how it compares.[/quote]
