    I’m in PA too, haven’t seen the Black & Tan cans. I’ve been drinking the Golden Pilsner and Lager. I’ll probably find a few B&T cans to bring back with me.

    They're heeeeeere....

    Just saw some of the basic year-rounders hitting the shelves at Davidsons (Two Hearted, Amber, Best Brown, and Porter). It will be nice to kick off football season with Best Brown in hand! That being said, I hope we see some of the stouts and seasonals roll in soon.

    All I want is EXPO stout. They can keep whatever else...

    I dig Best Brown since it's sweeter and less hoppy than the big browns (Telluride and Upslope) out here. It's a fun change of pace. I know it has become eye roll worthy, but I still really love Hopslam. It'll be interesting to see which one-offs and seasonals we get. Cherry Stout is one of those beers I remember trading for like 15 years ago :stuck_out_tongue:

    I know I'm going to get a lot of "fan boy" and "homer" flack for this but I think Bells produces some of the most shelf stable beers out there. Especially if the beer has been stored properly.

    I just drank a 4 month old 2 hearted out of my fridge and it tasted exactly as it does on tap at the brewery. Its one of the most consistent IPAs that is widely distributed. This is just one reason why it constantly wins the "best beer" award from the home brewer's association.

    Again it obviously depends on how its stored. I guess I'm lucky that my store has a huge cooler section for craft beer.

    Anyways, congrats to colorado. I know my MI transplant friends are excited. And I hear founder's is coming soon as well!

    Is Bell's here now?

    I picked up a 4-pack of the BB Cherry Stout a few weeks ago on a trip East. I wish I'd bought the other 2 sitting on the shelf. I LOVE that beer. I like the regular cherry stout, but this stuff is insane.

    I have two left, and this shit isn't being shared or traded.

    Picked up a sixer of LotL today to take to a party and a sixer of Kalamazoo Stout for home. I really love the stout. I haven't had it in a couple years, but it is probably my favorite regular stout.

    Picked up some Cherry Stout today at Mile High. I really like this beer, and am glad we get it here now.

    All the abbreviations are really stupid outside of BA and DDH as far as I’m concerned.

    You’re apparently not “in the know” man.
    Larry Bell said it will hit all of Bells markets. Might be slim pickens out here but we’ll get it regardless. Initial reviews from this batch seem very positive.

    I’ll tell you what I do know, the beer you were referring to is called Bourbon Barrel Aged Expedition Stout, or if you were to use initials that would be: BBAES, or BAES, not BAE, man. :wink:
