    Just opened my first bottle of this year's Dissident last week and split it with friends. It was really really good, but still a little hot. Can't wait for this year's Abyss to complete my 2006-2012 verticals! :grinning:

    Well...at least you'll get to enjoy a few good bottles. I've had all but the '09 (and 12, obviously) recently...and outside the '10...I'd take a pass on all of them, unfortunately. But...that's just me. :slight_smile:

    Do you think the '11 just needs some more age on it, or was there something else you didn't like about it?

    So, are you saying that Dissident is already out on shelves?

    I think it's been available at the brewery for a few weeks. Distribution starts in mid October maybe?

    miss those days.

    clerk: are these any good?

    me: not really.

    clerk: why did you buy 6 of them?

    me: my roommate is and alcoholic.

    $4.99 for a bomber? 2006? It's probably skunked! No thanks, bro. Where's the Steel Reserve?

    Sadly it was 6 years ago....

    Some sticker prices will always stay with the bottle though.

    FT: 2006 Abyss ISO: $5 in locals?

    Abyss, since the guy in the post right above mine said "I've had all but the '09 (and 12, obviously)", and there was no '09 Dissident release either.

    I'm psyched. I have never tried Abyss so I can't wait to get a couple. I had one Dissident in early 2011 (2010 release I'm sure) and it was one of the biggest surprises for me. It was amazing. I'll have to try to pick up 2-3 of each of these.
