    I mean, clearly the answer is caramel. And I'll pass on the 2019 Prop Tripple Barrel Apple.

    Isn't the GI answer always peppers and cacoa nibs? How have they seriously not released a pumpkin BCBS by now....nothing screams the holiday season like a blatant cash grab.

    Because we can still talkabout 2018 BCS?

    2019 BCS will clearly be different beers.

    New Holland did a brewery only Dragon's Milk Reserve Brandy Barrel Apple Pie at Black Friday. Stopped there for drinks after buying my BCBS and it was one of the best beers I've ever had. Had to buy a crowler to take home as well, it was insane!

    I had Apple Brandy BCS at the...first GI Block Party. I wish I could remember it.

    I could get down with a caramel apple BCBS. I loved midnight orange, and IRL I like caramel apple more than chocolate orange

    Much like chocolate mint, I’m still waiting for my first caramel stout that nails the flavors.

    Binnys Oak Brook has 2 1/2 cases each of MO and Bramble as of 10 mins ago. And yes, I bought another MO cause it goes bad after 2 years. Duh

    I will be interested to see what this apple caramel 18 BCS tastes like. Public opinion (tasting) polling for next year's prop?

    Yeah a number of barlwywines do that caramel well, I'd have to go thru my favorite stouts to think of it, but I feel like there's something that was great. I know Candy from Strangers worked well enough for me.

    Was just going to mention Candy from Strangers. I loved that one and thought they nailed what they were going for.

    Haven’t had it but will keep my eye out if it ever pops back up on tap. Thanks

    I've seen it around. Try to get it. I love it so much. Perfect amount of mint and chocolate.

    As am I. I'm not a fan of Perennial 17. I could see this past year's Prop mixed with Candy County being a winner, though (so basically Prop '18 with candy canes or some other version of mint).
