    I bought a pack late last year and something was definitely off. There was a strange, vinegary berry flavor. I contacted Brooklyn and they sent me a shirt and some glasses, I sent the last 3 cans back. A couple of reviews mention a similar experience. I really wanted to like this one because of the price.

    Thanks for hooking me up Tomas! From my review:

    Beer poured black as night with a very nice light brown head.

    Nose is awesome, roasted malts, whiskey, vanilla, and leather are very pungent.

    Taste is perfection, exactly what BA beers should strive for! Huge heavily roasted malts form the baseline and lend dark chocolate flavors. The barrels bring a nice rye spiciness with some vanilla and leather. Finishes so beautifully rounded, perfection with each sip!

    Mouthfeel is large bodied with each sip being so smooth and fully satisfying.

    Overall this is the best BA brew i have had in my day! (Overall score 4.82).

    I look forward to the second Paraboloid, but another day as this is too good!

    Cheers!
    Tom

    Hadn’t had anything from Bottle Logic in awhile, and this strange combination of stout adjuncts really took me by surprise. An excellent and unique release from these guys.

    Enjoying a Yeti, a solid impy stout, love the roastiness and full body feel, excellent non-BA brew. If flying thru Denver highly recommend the Great Divide brewpub.
    Cheers!

    When I purchased the Black Ops, they were fine, but the flavors seemed "off" now, similar I think to what happened to some BCBS several years ago. They certainly weren't terrible though......

    Yeti is one of my favorites! Always had one with a Dark Star .

    Regarding the Paraboloid, i been meaning to go back to get more for myself. I've had maybe 3 so far and sent out just as many. Gotta balance it out and drink 3 times that.

    Currently drinking this Delicious Russian Imperial Stout from Tri- City Brewing out of Bay City, Michigan that @BigIronH sent me at work. First time having this and Loving this so far!
    Wonderful No Nonsense RIS!

    Nice Tomas! A short story, i spent my first 23 years on earth mostly in the Tri-Cities (Saginaw), MI area. For nostalgia purposes, may need to hook up with Harley @BigIronH for a trade!
    Cheers!
