    I think the Backcountry BA Barleywine is supposed to be pretty good.
    I've had previous iterations and I think this one was more than just inspired by those.

    The Weldwerks/Snowbank mocha stout yesterday at Collab Fest was the highlight of the show for me. That beer was super tasty.

    Thanks so much for the encouraging words everyone. I'm really glad to hear Medianoche and the Barrel-Aged Mocha Stout we did with Snowbank have been well received. And thanks to everyone who made it up to WeldWerks last weekend for our anniversary or yesterday for the crowler release. We know Greeley isn't exactly close for many of you, so we really appreciate people making the trek. Hopefully we'll get more WeldWerks beers distributed down south so you don't have to travel as far to find it. Cheers!

    The homies at CBC sold out mighty quick. I may or may not have contributed to their problems.
    I hear the homies at Wyatt's in Longmont got it though. Their beer game is on point.

    Also, to second this. The dudes at Three Four are legit people regardless. They support local craft beer like few other bars I know. Straight killing it up there. They've gone through now 7 kegs of BA Yeti cause that's how they roll (and I often do as well when I go in... :flushed: ). They tapped their Dorothy keg last Saturday for my buddies going-away party, they'd been holding onto it for that reason which is pretty cool in my opinion...

    Glad that you back around here, so you could be quoting me all the damn time.

    So is there any more Finkle and Garf BBA Imperial Stout floating around? I might need to pick up my 3rd 4-pack.

    And I think I saw that F&G is aging more now

    Anyone try Whiskey BA Avarice lately? Might be swooping a keg of it up.

    Had it at Tag Burger Bar a couple weeks ago, I believe. It was alright...Not one of my favorites by any means for the style

    Know it's not barrel aged but their Nightmare Fuel coffee stout was excellent last time I had it.

    Nightmare Fuel is aged in whiskey barrels.

    I thought it was fantastic. So did everyone who shared it. Surprised by the mixed reviews frankly.

    As a man who has had BCBS and currently has BA Yeti on tap, I implore you to think long and hard before you buy a BA keg to put on tap at home. 5 gallons is a whole lot to drink unless you have a lot of friends coming by in which case they will get super drunk and things will get broken. I love BA beers but I am done having them on tap at the house. A sixtel is the equivalent of 30 bombers.
