    And before anyone says "freshness police" the beer is a tribute to the Waldos, the guys who coined the term "4:20". It's literally a beer made for drinking on 4/20 but our incompetent OH distributors won't be delivering it to half their accounts until 4/21 and 4/22.

    Yikes. I hope it returns to greatness, but I can't say I'm holding my breath.

    From GLBC:

    Rackhouse Ale will be presented in a beautiful screen printed 22 oz. bottle which has been hand-dipped and sealed in wax. Every bottle of Rackhouse Ale is tagged, numbered, and proudly signed by a GLBC brewer, our way of showing that the complex brew you'll be sipping on is the real deal.

    They have it at Party Source, FYI.

    I'm guessing that most people who care about the connection between the beer and 4:20 will be too high on the 20th to remember they are angry. Drinking it a day or two later will be a good way to reminisce about their "holiday".

    Anywhere near Columbus to find the Maple Porter?

    KBS is not very easy to get around toledo. I would bet not even 20 cases are shipped to the city. Most places get 1 or 2 cases, post on Facebook it's in at 10 am, say it's sold out by 11 am.

    Oh well I've drank enough over the years that I'm fine with not chasing it. This same routine pissed me off when Jackie O's beers are sold like this. I've never tasted a variant of dark app that I bought at a store.

    The Rackhouse I had at the BA Blackout release was outstanding. Easily the best Rackhouse I've had in years.

    My god, if this is another 'happy accident' sour, I will laugh until I cry.

    Nope. The version I had at the BA Blackout release was really good.

    Did they get more? They had some last Thursday, but it sold out in less than a day.

    I know they tapped some on Monday, not sure if that's still on, but I'm looking for bottles.

    Apologist :slight_smile:

    Nah just kidding. Do we know that's the same batch that was bottled? I certainly hope so.

    Dunno. They typically only make it once a year. So I would guess it is? They test every barrel now before blending into the final batch anyways. I'm not concerned with infection.

    Anybody seen Rhinegeist in Cleveland? Specifically the west side? Looked at my local GE, Bay Heinen's and Rozi's and haven't seen it yet.

    They had a full shelf of it last Tuesday when I went to pick up my KBS bottles. They also had the Lucky 13 as well on the shelf.

    The angels will sing when Bodhi bottles hit, but don't sleep on the Sohio Stout. It's a very tasty coffee forward treat.
