    I get subjective opinions, but does any hate for Cherry Rye come from people who do not enjoy cherries? That would make one's opinion a bit unfair.

    We opened one a couple months back and it tasted like chocolate-covered cherries with barrel character - it was excellent.

    Wait, I shouldn't take that awesome professional "article" seriously? I started reading it, and realized I was getting dumber by the second...and I can't afford that.

    If accurate, this is reassuring and depressing at the same time.

    That's about right. I'll say I'm not a fan of Regal so I'd turn it down if offered for free. I wouldn't turn down Northwoods as it is tasty, but I wouldn't pay for something that essentially tastes like a flatter version of Cherry Coke.

    Maybe you guys should take things more slowly (or "Despacito") and learn to "Love Yourself" a bit more. "Sorry" if "I'm The One" that has to bring this up. Please don't ask me "What Do You Mean" by all of this.

    No equivalent scenarios at all because hit singles are the general population whereas the only people who drink Cherry/Regal BCBS and then review it on this site are beer nerds.

    Nice try though.

    A little late, but on the topic of the taproom bottles at Fulton.

    This was the clear cut highlight from our Black Friday trip last year. We went up to Fulton on Saturday, sat at the bar, met another couple and a guy on either side of us, made friends, each bought a "whale" and split them between us.

    Ended up making some great friends and got to have solid pours of 13,14,16 Prop, 15 Rare, and a VR for pennies on the dollar compared to what it would have cost me alone on the secondary. And again, met great people and had a blast in the process.

    Unrelated to the BCBS discussion explicitly, but:

    Does anyone know when the flash pasteurization process started? Also, does the clybourne bottles go through the sameness process? I was assuming completely different bottling locations, but now that seems a bit stupid on my part.
