    I've never had it, but am looking forward to it. I wonder how tough it'll be to get some.

    When you had it, how prominent were the blueberries in the taste? Sometimes berries in my stouts aren't pleasing to my palate.

    You know the blueberries are there, but it's definitely not a blueberry bomb. The chocolate and vanilla smooth out the acidity from the berries. It does have a sweet flavor to it.

    That label would look badass if they put a goatee on that lizard.

    FIS IBUs are down to 75, but it seems more hoppy. Is it just me?

    I certainly hope we start to see more beers like this with heavy distro now that Founder's new barrel aging facility is in (or close to) full swing.

    What am I missing here? A 19.2 ounce can of All-Day?

    I love seeing Azacca in cans. It would be nice to have this beer sold all year round - especially the summer months.

    Hopefully Lizard of Koz is more comparable to GI Regal. If so, this is definitely something I can get behind.

    This is finally a Founders new release that I'm really looking forward to.

    750 ml of the lizard of koz. Sounds fantastic. Wonder what the price point will be

    PAM was $15.99 so I'd think that's what LOK would be.

    Bingo. That's a great comparison. Loved GI Regal, but LoK has a slightly more pronounced fruit flavor that I thought was lacking in Regal. LoK is one of my favorites from Founder's in the last several years and I can't wait to have it again.

    Interesting - I found the fruit very prominent in Regal. Perhaps my palate is more sensitive to fruit flavors in my stouts.

    Why is someone telling me that there will be 7 backstage beers in 2017....and all will be barrel aged?

    Should I listen to this nonsense?

    There are better odds they release 2 and neither are barrel aged

    How about BA FBS? And no, that's not the same as KBS.

    This is the first backstage I've been excited for in a couple of years.
