    also, i would take another blend of regular old white label SdF any day too. shame that beer doesn’t get release every year.

    yeah, was a bit surprised that the every other year pattern was broken in 2021

    i get that they brew SdF for a myriad of other beers (fruited Ferms, Oude, Tete) but i would take white label SdF every other year over AdF every year.

    now they did do Fermier v21 last year and that was really good but also the same cost for half the volume.

    i do like how they’re hyping it up on the blog. that said, i think for a lot of folks BA Ambiente b1 was kind of let down. maybe too many of us were expecting something more reminiscent of older BA Abraxas which this blend sounds a lot more like what they’re going for here.

    I thought this batch was a lot better than b1, personally.

    I didn’t hate either batch, but both BA and regular blends of Ambiente were just ok to me. I wanted to love them, but just didn’t. Out of the shared stouts, it’s probably my least favorite. Good, but I’m no longer sad about being out of town this weekend lol

    I really liked b1, and enjoyed the new batch at the Invitational so definitely looking forward to this. I'm really just thankful it's not a banana stout

    Luckily I think it was bottled before they could fill 375s with Stout!
