    Myself and a group of individuals have set up a petition to lobby for the distribution of Xocoveza on a yearly basis. As the petition states, since the future of the beer may be uncertain, we (myself included) would love to see if we can make an impression that might help Stone consider the idea of producing it in the coming years.

    I wonder what a bourbon barrel aged version of this would taste like. This beer was really good and very reasonably priced.

    Hell, let's petition for four-packs while we're at it. As much of that beer as I drank as it was (and it was not an insubstantial quantity), I would've drunk far, far more in 12oz format.

    Excellent cause as it stands, though. Definitely signed.

    This beer was good, but a petition? Really?

    Just a more condensed, specific way to show a brewery that you dig their product. No harm in trying. :slight_smile:

    I agree. That beer was phenomenal. don't ruin it by barrel aging it. It's pretty close to perfection as is.

    you know what I loved the most about it? very complex flavor but it wasn't as heavy or thick as comparable stouts. It went down quite easily.....

    Stuff was great. Bought 1 to try, went back bought 6 more bottles. Got one bottle left. Don't want to drink it, cause I want it to last forever.

    Haha, same thing happened to me! Finally drank my last one a few weeks ago. Such a bummer to see it go.

    One of my all time favorite beers from Stone! I truly hope this becomes reality and it is at least released as a seasonal.

    Make the petition for Dayman and I'll go stand in front of Trader Joes to gather signatures.

    Hands down the best stout I had in 2014 and easily one of my favorite stouts ever for that matter. I'd love to see this one come back once a year. Signed.

    Then don't sign the petition, slappy.

    stone brought some to extreme beer fest. i asked if they were gonna brew it again this year and they said no. they pretty much implied that it was a one-time thing. i do hope to see it back though as it was one of my favorite beers of 2014.

    A thin, weak, and underwhelming "spiced sout"... The fact that it's a milk stout makes it understandable to my criticism, but doesn't excuse it. It doesn't even land anywhere on the same stratosphere of Abraxas, bomb, huna, etc. It's way too thin. Stouts of that caliber need to have some thickness behind them. I wouldn't mind having this around to buy at 8$ a bomber. But, I don't understand how people go goo-goo-ga-ga over it.

    Never got to try. I'll sign the petition just in case something comes of it.

    I signed it. I really wanted to try this but never got the chance, so I'd love to have another opportunity to.
