    Bevmo usually has 6 and 12 bottle shipper; a little pricey at ~10ish and ~16ish respectively, but kinda convenient.

    Just went to Box City in Culver City, they had 6 and 12 bottle shippers for $9.50 and $15 respectively. Guess the price went up, thank you for the recommendation.

    not sure where else to post this, but Phantom Carriage has a new beer on called Wit Zombie, and it is fantastic. By far one of their best beers in a while

    Also, fwiw, I brought in my 1L stainless steel Societe growler, slapped a Phantom Carriage sticker on it, and they filled it

    So back to the topic of Pugachev's Cobra, I like it a lot more this year. Can you believe it?

    Went from something like 18.9% to 13.5%, but this years seems to have a thicker mouthfeel, obviously not as hot but still a big bourbon presence. Pleasantly surprised.

    Nice to hear. I'll pop one right now. Was wondering what I should drink tonight since my SD Chargers got cockblocked by Peyton Mannning. There is always next year. Happy New Years to all!

    $6 for a 5 oz pour and $12 for a full pour isn't terrible. It also says on the description on their menu that it is BA Abraxas, but it most definitely is not.

    It'd be going for a helluva lot more than 6 bones for a 5 oz pour if it was BA Abraxas.
