    Was there just before they tapped it and asked for a glass and when it will be in. She told me they aren't doing one for it since they've got so much other leftover glassware. Maybe wait a bit and it'll show up if they keep getting inquiries

    I forgot about harvest and have had super fresh all day. I prefer prolonged over all day, just personal preference, that's all

    Had a couple bottles of Big Lushious last night with my fam. Holy crap is it good! Perfect blend of fruit and chocolate. Very well done Founders.

    Are they selling this at the brewery? If so how much is it?

    I tried to find out on their site but I don't see a "bottles for sale" list like Short's has.

    Had it, was more reasonably priced than I originally heard ($13). Too sweet for me, but it's not like I was expecting different. Not a bad beer, just not a style I'm a huge fan of.

    Great gourmet raspberry chocolate bar flavor. Impossible to drink more than, say, 8 oz. Super sweet. Open to share.

    Have a case at Discount Drinks in Farmington, MI (12 mile/Halstead) if anyone still looking. Believe it was $13.49 a bottle.

    I know there was a 2nd wave of distro so that's probably what it's from. My local honey hole didn't even put it out until the last few bottles of dissenter sold haha

    Likewise, I had a hell of a time finding as much as I wanted.

    I've seen it sitting around. Saw last week for 10.99, so I grabbed one. But, I also know places wanting 20 for it.

    If you or @Kbyfield have CW17 and live near the fox valley we could do an IP trade in February. PM me if interested.

    I have enjoyed many brews from Founders, but this one is simply just too sweet for me.
