    I hope they leave adjuncts out of everything. Give me a barrel and call it a day. Just not wine

    I have one and it’s one of the more impractical glasses I have. It weighs a bunch and it’s probably more appropriate for either eating cereal out of or using for self defense. Having said all that, I do like being able to pour a whole bomber of beer into it and then shove my face to inhale the full aroma.

    It's not a true Dark Lord bottle share unless someone dies...

    Apparently you can return either empty of full bottles. My buddy was just there a month ago and returned two full bottles no issue. Me and a friend are bringing the empty bottle along this week to get the $30. And try at your own risk it is really bad. I gagged on it about 1/4 bottle in. They kind of scoffed at my friend who returned his bottle when he mentioned infection they are saying the cherries just got too sour. When i popped the cap it smelled just like a sour beer so i will believe the cherries going sour i guess.

    Also there is a ton more information about the Rue return in the Three Floyds releases forum on here. I saw someone comment about the return on their untapped check in and then went to the forums and confirmed it to be true.

    A local bar by me does "Schooner Night" where you buy one of these glasses, and on Mondays and Thursdays if you bring it in you get discounts on all draft beer in it. I have like 3 of them and mainly use them for cereal....hahaha

    Well I guess I'll bring the bottle and open it the day before for any brave souls. I'll be stopping by the brewery for my usual zombie dust case or two, so I can exchange it then.

    Make sure to exchange them first, as then you can use the gift card to pay for the zombie dust cases.

    That way you don’t have a gift card to hold onto any worry about.

    I keep pressing on the blue thumb but nothing happens. I think I might have bent my screen too...

    Didn't the lab tests come back clean for 2015 BCBS only to find it was infected by something they weren't testing for? Wonder how much Rue they have in kegs and whether it will make it out at DLD...

    Yeah...but, this is a cherry beer that tastes like cherries...maybe stronger of cherry than its initial cherry-ness, but, cherry Garcia all the same.

    Which years of Rue d'Floyd are infected? I have a few that were bottled on 3-3-17. Are those part of the infected batch?

    Yeah. To be clear per FFF's wording they are not infected. They just don't taste great anymore....
