    I'm with you on Dark Truth- I'll miss it. IMO, a good replacement may be Stillwater Folklore. Love that beer.

    @TheJermis Thanks for taking all the time to answer these questions!

    BBQ lists as 4 pack only now that it's year round. Will this be in 1/6 barrels or kegs or any size?

    No. Bourbon Barrel Quad has not previously been available on draft and there aren't currently any plans to change that.

    So pleased I can get BBQ in 4 packs year round now. Am anxiously awaiting the Imperial Stout 4 packs too. Great move on Boulevard to do this!

    Just finished off the last bottle of my four pack of BBQ, and I'm a little bit sad. The only way to cure that is gonna be to get another. Damn, that is a great beer. I love the new format.

    Double-Wide IPA is listed in the "Past Releases" section and Dark Truth Stout will be moved to that list after the best by date on the last batch bottled.

    hey @TheJermis I just picked a 4-Pack of Scotch-on-Scotch and see the BB Date is July of this year, given the high ABV shouldn't it be a bit longer like your other Smokestack Releases?
    Thanks

    My guess would be that it was given a shorter shelf life since it was a new beer, but I feel like it's comparable to Rye on Rye or Bourbon Barrel Quad.

    How much does the new imperial Pilsner resemble Collaboration No 1?

    When Boulevard and Duvel Moortgat united, did they dictate that you needed to reach a quota of new beers each year?

    JeremyDanner Zealot (679) Dec 20, 2005 Missouri

    I would say that Noble Prize is closer to Collaboration No. 1 in recipe and process than Reverb was, but the addition of Mandarina Bavaria hops at the end of the boil is the notable difference.

    No, absolutely not.

    Hopefully not the same number of jaded quips and backhanded barbs shot out by you every year. I will be the first to admit that some are humorous, but that one is not necessary.
