    Anybody want to go #pickitupformebro? I can help out anyone who needs an Upland Proxy for the most recent lottery. Also could trade some good stuff!

    BA Moloko was still there as of an hour ago. Zombie Dust too.

    Not ba. But it was listed under special releases. So I figured I'd throw it in here. They have blot out the sun in bombers right now. I don't remember this ever being released besides the ba version. Is that correct?

    Looking forward to it. When I had it on tap a while back I remember liking it better than DL.

    Its probably not a good idea to turn this into a "Things I liked better than DL..." thread. The posts could get quit lengthy with items such as Miller Lite, lake water and a kick in the junk.

    According to the Three Floyds website it was aged in bourbon barrels for 1 year.

    Tried it at a bottle share this past weekend. It's pretty good but not mind blowing, much better than some of their other ba offerings.

    Do you or anyone else know roughly how many bottles they made of this? I'd love to run down there after work tonight if it hangs around as long as BA Moloko.

    Ok, thank you. That's not looking likely to make it through tonight at that number I'd guess. I'll try calling them when I'm finally able to leave.

    Where did you find this description? Should be in bourbon barrels. Conquistador Porto is in port barrels.

    Think you will be fine, BA Moloko lasted a bit.

    You are correct. I copied and pasted directly from the page you linked to. Do you think it is a typo by three floyds, or is it really aged in port barrels this time?

    I'm assuming a typo from whatever web-designer they emailed the beer listings to.

    Horny for blood lasted almost 3 full days with 500 bottles. 700 bottles of Rue d'F lasted almost 3 days (friday, sat, sun), with a 1 hour line the entire time.

    They cant possibly sell 586 bottles in 1 day. Even if they sold one bottle a minute, that's 10 hours. That carry out window isn't capable of completing 1 transaction a minute, and not everyone is going to get the BA beer. I've waited 15 minutes with 4 people in line.
