    I missed on both after trying for just purple to not be greedy. I could have not been faster and still didn't get either.

    Got a purple. But this is only because I have never had a silent barrel and will likely never have one again. Over these prices across the board. But you only yolo can once so screw it.

    I've only tried the one Kyle picked out for Oak & Steel. It was darn good, but it really makes me appreciate the talent and skill set behind blending. Before I ever had a Silent Barrel, I don't know that I realized how much a good blender can elevate a beer.

    Same observation...I kept refreshing expecting to see them on the top. Then when I scrolled down and saw just the one bottle (purple) it said sold out. Then I kept refreshing and then the sold out banner went away. I completed the purchase for purple and went back in to see green sitting there. While it was in my cart it sold out.

    I wish there was more to go around and let each LC buy one if they wanted or do a random draw.

    Would have been neat if it had been an on-site bottle option for the LC party, instead of whatever public event it will show up at in the future

    You have to purchase all the silent barrel releases and blend them together. That’s what you’re paying the premium for here: doing the blending yourself.

    It’s just as likely that you’ve convinced yourself that your palate can tell the difference as it is that those other people can’t tell the difference.

    That sour quad is going to be a “fun” addition.

    A “thoughtful amount of fun.”

    Surprised nobody commented on the email yesterday. Sounds like at least one db derivation on its way.

    I assumed it was for attendees of stout week and not LC (again).

    Ha. That’s probably true. Wasn’t sure if it was one of the “surprise to go bottles” they keep teasing

    Was wondering if we'd hear about new DBD this week. There's a new batch of Fuzzy up on the LC shop
