    I would like to try this beer very much!
    I'm not really a fan of torpedo, but I think this beer has potential! Iso for sure.
    Only thing better could be some Brett!

    Is anyone aging this? Is it even worth a shot? I have 3 left and two are in the cellar.

    $24.99? Should go good with my 17 dollar bag of pretzels :rolling_eyes:

    Another six - twist gimmick...not to say the brew wont be good, just way too $ inflated.

    This thread just reminded me that someone shared this with me at Dark Horse last weekend. From what I can remember, it was pretty good.

    Picked one up at the Torpedo Room this last weekend. Was drinking iron rap there and had to grab a bottle. It is VERY good and the barrels they chose for this project complement the flavors and aromas off he beer perfectly. Yet another barrel aging victory for Sierra Nevada!

    I love Torpedoes, I love barrel-aged and Sierra Nevada has never let me down! I am there. I think we are all in for a real treat!

    Let's just throw everything into a Barrel!!! Seems great right!!??? Package it in a can to boot. No thanks. No Pliny in a Barrel sounds good, nor Heady. I'll pass on this one, or buy a 1/2 pint at the brewery for scale... Skeptical.

    Sorry to be a downer, I'm a realist. (Buy's another 12-er of fresh Torpedo as I always do from Safeway at $12.99 with a HUGE Smile...)

    Has anyone found this outside of the taprooms? I haven't heard anything of this landing in the northeast... Unless I missed it already
