    Nope :slight_smile: Huge snow storm going on right now in metro detroit and I would have to ride a Tom Tom to get to Bells if BN was available.

    If you have a Tauntaun with TomTom, then you're all set, and visibility be damned, you can get there and back. :grinning:

    I had no clue what they were referencing until now. I thought it was some kind of a helicopter, and I didn't see how that was going to help :slight_smile:

    Yeah, I've thought this for a while now. Think it's pretty safe to say something went wrong. It was at Funvitational and several people I know said something was off.

    Here is to hoping we see something in 2016!

    Considering it's 2016 (and we're 16% of the way through 2016 already) maybe it's time to lock up the 2015 thread and put it out to pasture.

    Did you hear anything more specific with regard to how it was "off"? Not doubting you, I'm just curious what specifically might have gone wrong (not that I can't come up with a few likely culprits on my own.)

    Yeah, sorry.. definitely not trying to start rumors! I have no idea, as I didn't press the issue for specifics. It was more an in passing conversation at a bottle share after they got back from Funvitational which was almost 6 months ago now.

    I guess my thought process being that it had been over a year since previous release to Funvitational and here we are approaching 2 years now with nothing.

    Tons of breweries now deliver barrel aged offerings year after year... so it would seem to me that they skipped a year/batch for some reason or another... good or bad. I have no basis for this other than my own musings...
